Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) President Joe Ajaero has declined an invitation from the Nigeria Police Force.
Ajaero claimed that he declined the invitation because of a scheduled appointment on August 20 before he was summoned.
He revealed this in a letter from his lawyers, Falana and Falana Chambers.
Falana added that the NLC President would be available at the Police headquarters on August 29.
Signed by Samuel Ogala and titled ‘Re: Letter of invitation’, it reads: “We are Solicitors to the Nigeria Labour Congress and its President, Comrade Joe Ajaero, on whose behalf we write this letter in respect of the above subject matter.
“We have the instructions of Comrade Joe Ajaero to inform you that he is unable to honour your invitation on Tuesday, August 20, 2024, 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.
“Therefore, Comrade Ajaero is prepared for your interview on Wednesday, August 29, 2024. Furthermore, in accordance with the provisions of section 36 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 as altered, Comrade Ajaero requests for the details and nature of the allegations of Criminal Conspiracy, Terrorism Financing, Treasonable Felony, Subversion and Cybercrime levelled against him.
