‘How I was beaten like a common criminal’ – NLC President Joe Ajaero

The President of Nigeria Labour Congress, Joe Ajaero has finally told the tale of how he was brutalized in Imo State.

Ajaero (who wore a dark shade to cover his swollen eyes) while addressing a press conference said police operatives handed him over to some suspected thugs for beating. The NLC President lamented that the kind of beating he received was “better imagined than explained”.

“I can’t explain the beating I received. They tied my hands and dragged me on the floor like a common criminal. I am not even a card-carrying member of any political party as alleged”.
