LP raises the alarm over alleged plot to spark civil unrest by NLC’s Ajero

The Labour Party has alerted the Nigerian Police to a potential security threat posed by Joe Ajaero and his Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC)/National Transition Committee (NTC). In an open letter to the Inspector General of Police, Abayomi Arabambi who claimed to be the party’s National Publicity Secretary accused Ajaero’s group of planning to forcefully take over the Labour Party and use it as a tool for a violent political insurrection.
According him, it could lead to civil and ethnic war in Nigeria. The party is urging the Inspector General to take decisive action to prevent this from happening and protect the country’s democracy.
He explained in the letter that the Party had previously raised concerns about Ajaero’s activities on August 13, 2024, accusing him of turning the NLC/NTC into a security threat to Nigeria’s existence. 
He expressed the believes that Ajaero’s actions are unconstitutional and go against the trade union acts and miscellaneous acts.
The letter therefore calked on  Inspector General of Police to intervene and prevent what could be a potentially disastrous situation for Nigeria.

The letter reads,
“I am writing to you today as a concerned citizen of Nigeria and as the National Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party. I am compelled to bring to your attention a pressing matter that threatens the unity and stability of our country.
“On August 13, 2024, our party raised concerns about Joe Ajaero and his National Labour Congress (NLC)/National Transition Committee (NTC) posing a security threat to Nigeria’s existence. 
“They are planning to forcefully take over the Labour Party through unconstitutional means, aided by Chief Femi Falana SAN, in contravention of trade union acts and miscellaneous acts.
“The primary objective of Joe Ajaero’s NLC/NTC is to use the Labour Party as a tool for a violent political insurrection, thereby plunging Nigeria into civil and ethnic war. 
“This is unacceptable, and we urge you to take decisive action to prevent this from happening.
“We implore you to intervene and protect the sanctity of our democracy, ensuring that the rule of law prevails. The time to act is now.
