Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani stated that the strike action by the NLC and TUC over the brutalization of Joe Ajaero, President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, is justifiable.
The national labour congress, NLC and the Trade Union of Nigeria, TUC, had declared a nationwide strike to protest the incident that occurred in Owerri, the Imo State capital, last week, where the president of the union was fatally assaulted by suspected political thugs.
Reacting to the action, Shehu Sani, in a post on his official X handle, supported the decision of the organized labor, saying the strike action would send clear messages to those behind the attack on Ajaero.
Sani believes that the strike action will convey a clear message to those responsible for the attack on Ajaero.
In his post, “No responsible trade union will fold its arms and see its leaders brutalized without a massive response.
“The strike action will send a clear message to those who want to toe this path. Using political thugs to disrupt protests and maltreat protesters is unacceptable; Abuja EndSARS organizers can remember how they were attacked at CBN Headquarters.”
