UZODINMA ON NLC PRESIDENT’S ARREST
IMO STATE WORKERS’ SALARIES UP TO DATE- GOV. UZODINMA
Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, has voiced concerns about an alleged attempt to blackmail his government.
The governor’s comments came in response to recent labor protests and a distressing incident involving the brutalization and arrest of NLC President Joe Ajaero in the state capital on Wednesday.
Governor Uzodinma insists that the state workers are not owed any outstanding salaries
Furthermore, addressing the situation surrounding Joe Ajaero, the NLC president, Governor Uzodinma expressed that Ajaero has faced challenges in separating his roles as the national president of the Labor Union from his engagement as an interested party in the local politics of Imo State.
However, he stopped short of condemning the incident.
The governor made these remarks at the presidential Villa after President Bola Tinubu presented flags to the APC governorship candidates for Imo, Bayelsa, and Kogi ahead of the November 11 elections
