On Thursday, the security agency took to its X social media handle to deny allegations that its officials were involved in a raid on the NLC office known as Labour House in Abuja on Wednesday evening, responding to a media report that suggested otherwise.

“Please kindly note that the Service (DSS) did not carry out any operation at the NLC office in Abuja,” the secret police said.

Earlier reported that armed security men suspected to be from the DSS on Wednesday evening in large numbers invaded Labour House, breaking into some offices and taking away some books and files.

A source said they carried various materials into their vans, claiming that the materials were used to incite and organise the ongoing #EndBadGovernance protests in the country.

Earlier in the day, the National Executive Council (NEC) of the NLC called for the reversal of what it called the “ill-conceived policies of the government” which had led to the current economic crisis.

“The government must implement policies that prioritize the welfare of the people, create jobs, and ensure fair distribution of resources,” the executive body said in a communique signed by its President, Comrade Joe Ajaero, and Comrade Emmanuel Ugboaja, the General Secretary.

It directed all workers across the country to continue to take measures to protect themselves as the masses try to make their voices heard, adding that they must maintain their commitment to non-violence.
