Strategic Communication
Office of the National Security Adviser Zakari Mijinyawa
says NSA is particularly worried about the implications of the strike action on the livelihood of ordinary Nigerians and its potential impact on economic security and other strategic national interests.
As attested by the NLC leadership, the NSA immediately intervened in learning about the travails of the President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Joseph Ajero who was assaulted in Owerri, Imo State.

The NSA regrets the incident and condemns it in its entirety as it was against the rule of law and the principles of freedom of association and expression subscribed to by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his administration.
As a fallout of the incident, relevant authorities were directed to conduct a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the assault and bring to book the culprits.
Available update indicates that some arrests have already been made in this regard, the outcome of the investigation will be made public as soon as it is concluded.
The Federal Government, through the Office of the NSA, therefore appeals to the labour leadership to call off the current strike action and allow the dialogue process underway to be exhausted .

There are two people in Tinubu’s cabinet that seem not to understand their jobs..
Nuhu Ribadu and Bayo Onanuga…
Maybe, Bayo Onanuga is actually over stretching himself, doing the job of Ajuri Ngelale, Tinubu’s Chief spokesman….. 😂
As for Nuhu Ribadu, the man wants to outdo Godwin Emefiele who delved into anything, even presidency……
