In the letter dated August 28, the Force Intelligence Department (FID) of the NPF says that Ugboaja’s invitation to Abuja was because of its investigation into “alleged criminal intimidation, conducts likely to cause breach of public peace and malicious damage to properties.”

Following Ajaero’s previous visit to the Police , he described the invitation as a mere distraction away from the struggles of Nigerian workers demanding better conditions from the government.

“Comrade, what is important is the circumstances that took me there. For whatever reason, we are out to continue the struggle. We are talking about the minimum wage, which has not been implemented,” Ajaero had said.
