He was accompanied to the Force headquarters by his lawyers,  including Femi Falana, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN where he submitted a statement to the police.

The magazine reported that Ajaero’s lawyer had written the police last week asking for more time after the Police invited the NLC leader for an interrogation, on terrorism related allegations on August 20.

Addressing a crowd of labour members who gathered at the NLC headquarters to welcome him after honouring the police invitation today, Ajaero said his resolve to advance the cause of the Nigerian worker remains strong and unshakable.

He said, “The labour movement is worth dying for because of the patriotism and commitment. Labour movement is one of the biggest pan Nigeria organisations, our patriotism from the days of colonial government to even the period of the military is unshakable.

“We are more patriotic than any other institution you can think of in this country and we are going to continue to be that. We have gone there and we are back, I just want to confirm to you that as a citizen we have gone there and we are back here.”
