The Nigerian Army has denied allegations made by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) that soldiers surrounded the venue of the meeting between labour leaders and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF).
The NLC had claimed on its social media handle, “Soldiers are presently surrounding the venue of the meeting between Labour and Government at the premises of the SGF.”
However, the Army Headquarters responded in a statement: “The attention of Army Headquarters has been drawn to a false breaking news by NLC alleging that soldiers currently surround the venue of the ongoing meeting between NLC and the SGF.”
