(In Nigeria) Calls Grow for NLC President Joe Ajaero to Step Down

Ajaero, speaking in support of Akpoti-Uduaghan, warned that mass protests could erupt if the Senate fails to reinstate her. His remarks have drawn sharp backlash, with many accusing him of overstepping his role and politicising the NLC.



The controversy has sparked a wider debate about the independence of the labour movement and whether its leadership should involve itself in partisan disputes.
