The Department of State Services (DSS) has kept mum over the arrest of the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero.

The spokesperson of the Service, Dr Peter Afunanya, has been redeployed last week.

However, contacts provided for inquiries to the Service following his redeployment did not offer any information about the incident.

A text message sent to the phone numbers and emails that were provided did not give any information on the matter after inquiries were made.

The response from them was, “Good afternoon, I have no comment regarding that at the moment, please. Thank you for contacting us.”

Ajaero was reportedly arrested on Monday morning at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja while about to board a flight to the United Kingdom (UK).

He is billed to attend the conference of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), in the UK today, it was gathered.

According to sources, he has been handed over to the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

The new Director General of the Department of the Service, Adeola Oluwatosin Ajayi, assumed office on 28th August 2024 with a pledge to refocus the security outfit towards “covertness and likelihood of studied silence over certain matters.”
