HOPE UZODIMMA CONTINUES ON HIS MURDEROUS MISSION AGAINST NIGERIAN WORKERS AND TRADE UNION LEADERS: INVADES AND ATTACKS NLC PRESIDENT'S HOME COMMUNITY IN IMO STATE

The brazen and violent assault on the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Joe Ajaero, and others on November lst, 2023, inside the State Secretariat of the Nigeria Labour Congress in Imo State, by Governor Hope Uzodimma, his thugs, and the State Police Commissioner, stands as a stark reminder of the lengths to which they are willing to go in their pursuit of suppression and brutality.

In a shocking turn of events, on the morning of November 4th, 2023, Governor Hope Uzodimma, once again demonstrated his utter disregard for human rights and democratic principles by invading and attacking the community of Azalla Owalla in Emekuku, Owerri, Imo State the hometown of NLC President, Comrade Joe Ajaero.

It is evident that the Governor's sinister objective is the assassination of the President of the Congress, a motive laid bare by this latest act of aggression on the community. This invasion was carried out under the misguided belief that Comrade Ajaero was still present, recovering from injuries inflicted by the police and hired thugs.

The use of excessive force against citizens who hold differing opinions or dare to question the Governor's governance style, particularly in relation to the inhumane treatment of workers in Imo State, is an affront to democracy. The current situation in Imo State is nothing short of a descent into fascism, where terror takes precedence over reason, and dialogue is pushed to the sidelines.

We urgently call on the Inspector General of Police to rein in the Imo State Police Commissioner, preventing further abuse and desecration of the nation's Police force. The Commissioner has become a tool of oppression in the hands of the fascist Governor, perpetrating intimidation and harassment on the people of Imo State. Immediate removal is essential to prevent an impending crisis.

The President of the Federal Republic and all patriotic citizens of Nigeria must not remain silent in the face of this bloodshed. It is imperative that the Governor be held able. We believe that the President holds the means to rein the excesses of the Governor, and these measures must be swiftly employed to safeguard lives and properties in the State.

The people of Azalla Owalla are entitled to their peace, and the continued occupation of their community by the Police and Uzodimma's thugs, in the wake of the assault on their fellow citizen, constitutes an ongoing insult. The occupying forces must immediately vacate the territory, granting the people the freedom to engage in their socio-economic activities without the looming spectre he looming specter of terror.

Governor Hope Uzodimma should be under no illusion - Nigerian workers remain steadfast in their commitment to protect the rights of Imo State workers, undeterred by the current wave of violence he has chosen to pursue. We draw strength from the events of November lst, which will guide our future interactions with the Governor. The workers of Imo State will prevail, and Hope's attempts to thwart our cause through intimidation and violence will be in vain.

Whose plan? They did it deliberately by themselves in of the beaten and they announced it.
It is normal there punishing themselves to spite somebody e.g. Flogging their parents and crumbling their own business due to sit at home acclaimed to be in favour of Kanu.

Your state governor will not act irresponsibly, that's the difference son.

No evidence. This na parlour talk

Even though they show you evidence, you will still find something else to say.

This Ajaero wants to use his office to sabotage the APC guy.

In a Free and Fair election APC won’t get up to 3000 votes in IMO State.
