NLC President Ajaero playing partisan politics, lies about fighting for workers – Presidency

 The Presidency on Thursday
accused the President of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Joe Ajaero, of playing
partisan politics in Imo State ahead of Saturday’s governorship election.

 

Bayo Onanuga, President Bola
Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, made the remark while
faulting Ajaero’s claim of fighting for workers in the state.

 

Onanuga was reacting to Ajaero’s
meeting with the Labour Party, LP, governorship candidate in the state, Athan
Achuonu.

 

Posting on X, Onanuga lamented
that the Trade Union Congress, TUC, bought Ajaero’s lies of fighting for
workers.

 

An online user, @DavidsOffor had
posted: “Here is Joe Ajaero, the Partisan NLC President in a HAPPY mood with Imo
State Labour Party’s gubernatorial candidate, Athan Achuonu. This same Ajaero
has shut down Imo State because of his huge interest in seeing the unpopular
Achuonu win the election on Saturday.

 

“It is time every Imolites resist
the high-handedness of the labour union Leadership. Imo State is currently
without light for days now, no fuel supply, teachers and health workers have
downed tools etc because Ajaero wants to raise public sympathy against the
Governor, so sad.

 

“Now the question is Imo state
the only place the off-season elections are holding, why is Ajaero picking only
his home state? His position as NLC President has brought so much pains in the
state. NLC has never been dragged this low.”

 

Reacting, Onanuga wrote: “Joe
Ajaero, with Labour governorship candidate playing partisan politics in Imo.
And he claims he is fighting for all workers in the state. TUC surprisingly
bought the lie.”
