‘we Were Targeting A Criminal’, Police Speak On Labour House Invasion by Islie: 9:04pm On Aug 09
The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has given a reason for its search operation at Labour House, headquarters of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) in Abuja.

Daily Trust had reported how masked policemen in black shirts stormed Labour House on Wednesday night.

The officers who reportedly said they were in search of sponsors of the #EndBadGovernance protest were said to have carted away books and some other items.

The NLC which described the act as condemnable had given the police an ultimatum to return the books.

In a statement on Friday, Muyiwa Adejobi, Force Spokesperson, said the NLC was not the target of the operation but an individual who a shop within Labour House for his “criminal” activities.

Detectives, armed with the appropriate legal authority, conducted an operation at the location, which turned out to be the NLC building.”

This well-coordinated, lawful operation was solely aimed at apprehending the prime suspect—a foreign national implicated in numerous criminal activities across Nigeria and other African countries.

We emphasise that this operation had no connection with the NLC, its Secretariat, staff, or leadership. The NLC Secretariat was not the focus of the operation, which was targeted at a rented shop within the building used by the suspect as a front for his criminal activities in Nigeria.

“The Nigeria Police Force seeks the cooperation and support of the NLC leadership as we continue this investigation, which is vital to safeguarding our nation.

“The high-profile nature of the suspect poses a significant security threat to Nigeria and other African nations, making this investigation crucial for the safety of all involved, including the NLC.”

Walahi ta lahi, if you're the type that drives on the road constantly, particularly with commercial plate number, you have no option then to hate Nigerian police.

The way they would be harassing you and sundry will overwhelm you.

After the back and forth of denials, the government police security agency have finally admitted to being the ones that shamelessly invaded the Labour headquarters allegedly pursuing a criminal?

This same force spokesperson went on TV to lie that the Police Force, recorded in several videos shooting at protesters, was not responsible for the killings of several protesters to date. Warning! Take anything this man says with a grain of salt! 🤔

MR POLICE SPOKESMAN (Muyiwa Adejobi, Force Spokesperson),

NO PROBLEM.

OUR COLLECTIVE PRAYER IS THAT:

''GOD WILL KILL ALL OF YOU AT THE HELM OF AFFAIRS WHO LIE BOLDLY, BRAZENLY AND SHAMELESSY, AND MAKE THIS COUNTRY A LAUGHING STOCK BOTH AT HOME AND BEFORE THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY''.

WHETHER PDP, APC , YORUBA, IGBO, HAUSA OR ANY TRIBE, IT WOULD NOT AND DOES NOT MATTER.

YOU ARE ASKING ''WHAT ABOUT THE FOLLOWERS'' ?!

OK! YOU WILL KNOW THAT BEING AT LEADERSHIP CARRIES RESPONSIBILITIES, DUTIES AND BURDENS THAT MAKE LEADERS TO BE JUDGED DIFFERENTLY.

So this criminal rented the NLC building or a shop close to the main building? which one?

Never seen a country where its force men and politicians lie so brazenly like this!
