The NLC General Secretary, Emmanuel Ugboaja, made this known in a letter addressed to all affiliates and state councils on Wednesday in Abuja.
The letter, titled “Mobilisation for Peaceful Procession and Prayer Session in Solidarity,” follows an invitation by the police for NLC President Joe Ajaero to appear for interrogation on charges of alleged “criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, treasonable felony, subversion, and cybercrime.”
According to the NLC general secretary, the directive also instructed members from across the states to mobilise and embark on a peaceful procession to their respective state police commands and stay there until the NLC president is out of the police interrogation.
Meanwhile, NLC members in Abuja are also expected to do same, with some leaders of the labour union accompanying the union president to the police investigation office.
The police had invited Ajaero last week for questioning over allegations of terrorism financing, treasonable felony and cybercrime.
