NLC President Ajaero ‘Knocked’ For Attempting To Leave Nigeria Whilst Under Investigation
A former Assistant Director of the Department of State Services, DSS, Dennis Amachree, says labour leader, Joe Ajaero is not supposed to leave the country because he is under investigation for alleged terrorism financing and related offences.
Amachree stated this on Tuesday on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme, saying Ajaero should remain in Nigeria until investigations were over.
According to him, the person of Ajaero is different from the office of the president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) which he currently occupies, adding that he is being investigated on a personal note and not as NLC boss.
The former DSS Assistant Director said Ajaero must have been on the watch list of security agencies for him to be stopped and picked up at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja on Monday morning.
“There is an ongoing investigation; he (Ajaero) cannot leave the country,” Amachree said, adding, “let him remain in the country whilst investigations are going on.
“For terrorism financing which he (Ajaero) has been accused of, and which is under investigation, he cannot leave the country. Even if he is leaving the country, where is he going?
“Remember, the main man (Andrew Wynne) that was suspected of financing terrorism is his tenant and I don’t think Ajaero is going to go to London without talking to that person because he is in London running his mouth.”
