The President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, (NLC) , Joe Ajaero, has turned down an invitation from the Nigeria Police Force, citing prior commitments.
Ajaero’s lawyers, Falana and Falana Chambers, communicated this refusal in a letter addressed to the Inspector General of Police.
The letter explained that the police invitation, which was received yesterday, came too late as Ajaero was already committed to another engagement.

The letter read in part: “We are solicitors to the Nigeria Labour Congress and its President, Joe Ajaero… We have the instructions of Ajaero to inform you that he is unable to honour your invitation on Tuesday, August 20, 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.”
The statement also indicated that Ajaero will be available for questioning on Wednesday, August 29, 2024.
