Akporeha, the coordinator of WoPU, has expressed grave concern over the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) being dragged to its lowest point ahead of the 2027 general election. In a statement, Akporeha faulted the NLC leadership for double standards and denying Sessi, the Lagos State Council Chairperson of the NLC, her right to freedom of association.
The NLC had questioned Sessi over her inauguration into the Working People United (WoPU) association. Akporeha argues that the NLC has abandoned its mandate of protecting workers' welfare in favor of political involvement. He asserts that it's not in line with the NLC constitution for a political support group to seek approval from certain individuals before operating.
Akporeha criticizes those who are trying to dictate members' political affiliations within their unions, calling it laughable and appalling that such actions are dragging the respected NLC to its lowest ebb.
