Organised Labour

The organised labour says it would no longer guarantee industrial harmony in the country from November 8 over the assault on Joe Ajaero, president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).

The organised labour, comprising NLC and Trade Union Congress (TUC), held a press briefing on Friday over the incident in Imo state.

According to the leaders of the joint union, the Federal Government is given a six-point demand, including the immediate removal of the Commissioner of Police, Imo State, and Area Commander, among other officials, for their alleged complicity in the brutalisation and humiliation of Ajaero and other workers.

They also demanded the arrest and prosecution of the Special Adviser to the Imo State governor, Hope Uzodimma, on Special Duties, threatening to embark on a nationwide industrial action if there demands are not carried out.

The union leaders are accusing the Imo State government as well as the police for being responsible for the attack on the NLC leader.
