Why police invite NLC president

Recall that the NLC had alleged that armed security personnel raided its headquarters in Abuja last Wednesday, taking documents. The incident was widely condemned by human rights groups, including Amnesty International.

However, according to the police spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the operation was to search for incriminating documents to establish a suit against an international subversive element threatening Nigeria's democracy.

How Nigerians react to police invite

Some Nigerians have taken to the comment section of the post and expressed their opinion. Below are some of their reactions:

Chlorophyll commented:

"Sanni Abacha wouldn't extend an invite to Ajaero if he were alive though."

Nigerian with the handle @iamsalomeishaya said:

"When they were advised NOT to ENGAGE in "closed door meetings/negotiations" with these criminal cartels in the helms of power in Nigeria, they refuse to listen. Now they're being tagged "Terrorism Financiers, Felons" and all whatnot!"

Tanko Kazanshi wrote:

"This is a complete disgrace to NLC. NLC was feared during the military regime and is now threatened by governments. NLC is a sell-out to the government, so they are disgraced anyway."

Manny Emmanuel reacted:

"That's what compromise does! Didn't the NLC president follow them on their Dubai Jamboree?"

"Let is come out to protest"
