The Department of State Services (DSS) has released labour leader Joe Ajaero
from its custody.

Ajaero, who confirmed the secret police allowed him to go home around past 11pm
on Monday, said he was grilled for about 15 hours since his arrest around 7am at the
Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

Ajaero said he was quizzed over alleged terrorism financing involving a British
national, Andrew Wynne.

Ajaero, who was on his way to the United Kingdom on Monday for a Trade Union
Congress (TUC) event when he was arrested at Abuja airport, however, said his
travel passport was seized by the secret police.

The NLC had condemned Ajaero’s arrest and gave the secret police Tuesday midnight
to release the labour leader. The union had also put all its affiliates, state councils,
civil society allies and all patriotic Nigerians on the highest state of alert in the light of
“this troubling development.”
