The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has said that the recent brutality and violence in the arrest of the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Mr. Joe Ajero, in Owerri, Imo state, stands condemned.
The Executive Secretary of the Commission, Dr. Tony Ojukwu, described the assault on Ajero as a reprehensible act, a flagrant violation of human rights and an affront to the principles of democracy and the rule of law.
