President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero has been reportedly detained by operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS).

The arrest occurred this morning at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja.

Ajaero was reportedly about to board a flight to the United Kingdom for an official engagement when the DSS took him. Preliminary information suggests that he has been transferred to the National Intelligence Agency (NIA). The reasons behind the detention remain unclear, although Ajaero was scheduled to attend the Trade Union Congress (TUC) conference in the UK today.

This incident follows recent tensions between Ajaero and security agencies. On August 20, he had responded to an invitation from the Intelligence Response Team (IRT) of the Police Force, after a summons issued on August 19 threatened his arrest for non-compliance.
