Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has revealed that President of the Nigeria Labour Congress , Joe Ajaero, snubbed an invitation by security operatives as if he were above the laws of Nigeria. He said this accounted for part of the reasons he was picked up at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, by officials of the Department of State Services .
Citing the UK, where Ajaero was headed, the presidential aide said, like the United Kingdom and other civilized nations, Nigeria is a country of law governed by the Constitution. 'We are not aware that there is anyone in the United Kingdom or anywhere in Europe and the United States, trade union leaders included, who will flagrantly ignore the invitation or summons of MI5 or Scotland Yard or treat the FBI with the level of disdain Mr. Ajaero has shown to law enforcement agencies in Nigeria.
