In reaction to charges made by NLC President Joe Ajaero that the protests were suspended because of pressure from the government, Adeyeye angrily denied Ajaero’s allegations, calling them dishonest. He highlighted Ajaero’s alleged plan to force the Labour Party and Peter Obi on the public, calling it a hidden agenda.
He said, “When he went to the National Assembly, nobody threatened him there. Why is the man playing politics with the leadership of the Labour union? The man has a hidden agenda to force Peter Obi on Nigerians so that the Labour Party can have its way.”
Furthermore, Adeyeye stressed the need for individuals not to blindly follow Ajaero’s directives, citing his own participation in a protest where, contrary to Ajaero’s assertions, no arrests were made. He cited firsthand observation of law enforcement officers providing assistance to demonstrators, dispelling notions of coercion and intimidation.
