The Strategic Communication arm of the Democracy Watch Initiative has accused the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Joe Ajaero, of deception labeling him the most deceptive labour leader in Nigeria’s history.
According to the Initiative, Ajaero’s recent criticism of federal government policies is nothing more than a hollow performance aimed at misleading the public into believing he genuinely cares about their struggles.
The Director, Strategic Communication of the Democracy Watch Initiative, Dr. Tunji O Bamidele, in a statement issued in Abuja, faulted the Union decision against the End-Bad-Governance protests.
The body noted that Ajaero’s silence was deafening, and his refusal to stand with the people before, during and after the protest was a clear case of betrayal.
On the recent fuel increase, the Democracy Watch Initiative declared that the Union President has no moral justification to issue a press statement filled with fake outrage and pretentious demands, condemning the government for increasing the pump price of PMS and other policies. It noted that Ajaero’s sudden concern is nothing more than a charade, a pathetic attempt to reclaim relevance after his cowardly silence during the protests.
The body group maintained that the fight for justice, equity, and good governance must continue, but it must be led by those who have proven themselves to be consistent, courageous, and genuinely committed.
