The National Chairman of Labour Party, Comrade Julius Abure, has accused the Joe Ajaero-led of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC of besieging the party’s national secretariat and stealing funds meant for payment of staff salaries, among other valuables during Wednesday’s attack.

Abure described the action of the labour leaders as a shameful and an act of rascality. In a statement signed on his behalf by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, in Abuja yesterday, Abure said, “What we saw was a show of shame, a show of rascality, an abuse of office and an abuse of the law of the land.”

“Nigeria Labour Congress is subject to the law. NLC under Joe Ajaero is not above the law and the law precludes Ajaero and the leadership of NLC to take laws into their hands, where they besieged the office, broke the fence, destroyed the gates, unlawfully took possession of the secretariat and destroyed properties worth millions of naira.”

“Properties stolen, including monies, made for the payment of salaries and other official purposes. This is unfortunate. It is becoming unbecoming.”

The acting Chairman of NLC’s Political Commission,  Professor Theophilus  Udubuaku, has also reacted to the accusation. He said “Abure should be reminded, since he is now suffering from selective amnesia that it took the picketing by Ajaero-led NLC to drive Lamidi Apapa away from the LP headquarters before he moved in.”

“We would like the Nigerian media to appreciate the fact that NLC is not interested in a media war with a man who thinks he can successfully transform himself into a sole administrator of LP.”
