Here’s a rephrased version of the text:
The labor leader announced that he would respond to the latest police invitation on Wednesday, September 25.
Recently, Ajaero has been under scrutiny from security agencies, particularly the Police and the Department of State Services (DSS).
Speaking to workers and union officials in Lagos, Ajaero stated, “I was recently arrested and detained by the state in a clear attempt to intimidate and silence our movement. They sought to find wrongdoing, but we have maintained our faith. We must all continue to do so.
“On August 29, we responded to a summons from the state regarding certain allegations, and on the 25th, we will attend another meeting, this time at the police headquarters in Abuja.
“I want to emphasize that the strength of our movement lies not only in our determination but also in the integrity with which we operate.
“Our hands must remain clean, and our hearts pure, so that when our adversaries come—and they will—they will find nothing to use against us. Comrades, you have witnessed this firsthand.
“As we prepare for the challenges ahead, remember that while they can imprison our bodies, they cannot imprison our spirit.” He expressed gratitude on behalf of the NLC to all the international organizations, especially those within the global trade union community, who stood in unwavering support during recent challenges.
“We are particularly thankful to the International Labour Organization (ILO), the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), ITUC-Africa, Public Services International (PSI), the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU), the Trade Union Congress (TUC) of the UK, IndustriALL Global Union, the German Federation of Trade Unions, LO Norway, and all patriotic Nigerians.
“Your collective voices have condemned the government’s actions against the NLC and its leadership, and for this, we remain deeply grateful,” Ajaero concluded.
