Why We Raided NLC Building In Abuja – Police

509

The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has clarified that the raid at the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) secretariat had nothing to do with the NLC, its secretariat, staff, or leadership.

Police Force spokesman, Muyiwa Adejobi, made this known in a statement on Friday.

Adejobi said the operation was targeted at a suspected criminal traced to a shop in the Centre Business District of Abuja, which coincidentally was the NLC building.

The police boss also sought the cooperation and support of NLC leadership in the investigation of the raid at its secretariat.

The statement read, “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.”

“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.

“The Nigeria Police Force remains committed to upholding the rule of law, maintaining professionalism, and respecting human rights in the discharge of our statutory duties. We also urge Nigerians to remain vigilant and to conduct security profiling of individuals seeking to rent space within their premises.”
