Babatunji Wusu –
Joe Ajaero, National President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), has generated comments on social media with his images from the COP28 in Dubai.
Some online users expressed astonishment at seeing Ajaero at the meeting, despite the outcry over the large number of Nigerian representatives present.
This occurs many weeks after the NLC president was brutally attacked and assaulted in Imo State by thugs who were allegedly supported by the state administration before the state’s off-cycle election.
Prior to official intervention, the incident also sparked a nationwide walkout.
Ajaero’s COP28 images, however, have sparked a lot of conversation among Nigerians, who claim he received payment for the Imo State incident.

I expected this useless labor union to condemn the high number of unneeded FG delegation to Dubai, till now no statement even on the Wike proposed 15 billion VP residence no statement so far.”
