For us at the Nigeria Labour Congress, we believe this latest attacks should not weaken the morale of the forces involved in the battle against terrorism in our country.

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has asked security operatives to also investigate the involvement of the Niger-Delta militants in the recent bomb blasts that occurred in Abuja.

According to Leadership Newspapers, the President of NLC, Comrade Ayuba Wabba said “One of the locations, Kuje is on the route to our major international airport. The attacks may have been a devious façade to rubbish the victories of our national army and other security agencies in the battle to rid our country of terrorism and all its residues before the global community. They want the world to believe our country is not safe."

Adding that “For us at the Nigeria Labour Congress, we believe this latest attacks should not weaken the morale of the forces involved in the battle against terrorism in our country, rather it should reinvigorate their fighting spirits and be seen by government as a challenge to arm our forces with more sophisticated and superior weapons both for intelligence gathering and combat.”
