NLC President, Ajaero Declines Police Summon, Suggests August 29th
The President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero, has declined an invitation from the Nigeria Police Force, citing prior engagements.
The rejection was contained in a letter from Ajaero’s lawyers, Falana and Falana Chambers, addressed to the Inspector General of Police, News360 Nigeria gathered.
The letter stated that the police invitation, which was received yesterday, came too late, as Ajaero had already committed to another engagement.
The letter read in part: “We are solicitors to the Nigeria Labour Congress and its President, Joe Ajaero… We have the instructions of Ajaero to inform you that he is unable to honour your invitation on Tuesday, August 20, in view of the fact that your invitation letter was received by him yesterday. He has an engagement that had been fixed before the receipt of the invitation letter.”
The statement also revealed that Ajaero will be free for interrogation on Wednesday, 29th August, 2024.
The police had summoned Ajaero over allegations of criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, treasonable felony, subversion, and cybercrime.
