Former Governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole, has revealed that he was once assaulted by men of the Department of State Services (DSS) during his tenure as the President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) between 1999 and 2007.

Oshiomhole condemned the recent brutalisation of the President of the NLC, Joe Ajaero, in Imo State, and criticised the decision of organized labour to embark on a nationwide strike in response to the incident.

While speaking on Channels Television, Oshiomhole shared his experience, stating, โ€œI had a similar experienceโ€ฆ I was on my way to Delta State, and I went to the airport. The then director of SSS ordered that I should be arrested and stopped from traveling because we had given an ultimatum to the then Federal Government headed by President Olusegun Obasanjo.โ€

โ€œThey dragged me on the tarmac, and I had my cuts all over the place. They forcefully prevented me from flying and took me back to the DSS director generalโ€™s office โ€” then Col. [Kayode] Are.โ€

โ€œHe offered to take me to their own hospital, and I said, โ€˜No, I canโ€™t even trust a government that has inflicted this kind of wound on me to treat me. They might as well poison my blood.โ€™ I said I wasnโ€™t going to do that.โ€

Oshiomhole added that he ended up in detention for at least 48 hours after being โ€œtaken awayโ€ and expressed his determination to continue the struggle for justice.
