The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has called an emergency National Executive Council meeting following the police invitation of its National President, Joe Ajaero, over alleged terrorism financing.
The meeting which is currently on will hold on has all heads of affiliates and state chapters in attendance
Ajaero was invited by the police on charges connected to “criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, reasonable felony, subversion, and cybercrime”.
The police letter directed him to report at the IRT Complex on Tuesday, August 20, at 10 am, threatening a warrant of arrest if he fails to comply.
This development follows a recent raid on the NLC national secretariat in Abuja, where security agents seized documents and arrested some members.
The NLC has rejected the police explanation for the raid and demanded the release of its members and documents.
The organization has also criticized government interference in its internal affairs.
