The President of Nigeria Labour Congress, Comrade Joe Ajaero, has described the demolition by the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, as a move targeted mainly at the poor as akin to Hitler’s tyranny.
The NLC president said this in an interview with newsmen on Saturday, saying NLC has drawn the battle line with the Minister.
According to him, “Shelter is among Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and you go and demolish it and ask them to go to hell and your so-called master plan is in your pocket.
“Nobody knows where your master plan is. And you watch NLC draw a battle line over Wike’s demolition plan Abuja them, some of them use their retirement benefits to start a foundation (and you demolish it), that will not continue.
“Nigeria’s political class should realise that the poor are suffering that they can no longer breathe.”

Noting the way that Wike has gone about the demolitions which the NLC president said has mostly affected the poor in Abuja, he said: “It is impoverishing the masses and it is done with a level of impunity identical to Hitler’s tyranny in Germany. That should not continue because it is affecting more workers. If you check the people
whose houses are being demolished it is that class of people that you have not provided houses for.”
