Civil Society Group Calls for Removal of NLC President Over Partisan Politics

The Nigeria Watch civil society group has called for the removal of Joe Ajaero, the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), over allegations of engaging in partisan politics. The group accuses Ajaero of compromising the NLC's credibility by intervening in the suspension saga of a Kogi Senator.

Ajaero's actions were deemed as undermining the impartiality of the NLC and interfering in legislative affairs. The group emphasized the need for adherence to legal processes and criticized Ajaero for pressuring the Senate to readmit the suspended senator against established rules.

This demand for Ajaero's removal highlights concerns over the NLC's involvement in political matters.
