President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero has turned an invitation from the Nigeria Police Force.

He made this known in a letter from his lawyers Falana and Falana Chambers.

He explained he turned down the invitation due to other engagements.

Recall the police had invited Ajaero over alleged criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, treasonable felony, subversion and cybercrime.

However, a letter addressed to the Inspector General of Police by Ajaero’s lawyers said the invitation came late.

Parts of the letter read, “We are solicitors to the Nigeria Labour Congress and its President, Joe Ajaero, on whose behalf we write this letter in respect of the above subject matter.

“We have the instructs of Ajaero to inform you that he is unable to honour your invitation on Tuesday, August 20 in view of the fact that your invitation letter was received by him yesterday.

“He has an engagement that had been fixed before the receipt of the invitation letter.”
