Investigations into the circumstances of the alleged assault on the person of the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Joe Ajaero, have been ordered.
The order was issued by the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Kayode Egbetokun.
Consequently, IGP Egbetokun has mandated the Deputy Inspector General (DIG) in charge of the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) to take over the matter with the primary objective of ascertaining the facts surrounding the incident.
The police boss posited that the investigation will also address any ambiguities that may exist as the police have been inundated with different versions of the incident, making investigations imperative to clear the conflicting accounts.
In a statement made public on Friday by the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO) ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, “The Nigeria Police Force understands the importance of transparency and accountability in maintaining public trust.
“The IGP therefore assures the public, most especially the leadership of the organized labour, that a thorough and unbiased inquiry will be conducted to provide clarifications while urging organized labour and the public to remain calm, as he has personally intervened to address the issues surrounding this incident.”
