The leadership of Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria (ASCSN) has explained the reason why police sealed the national secretariat in Lagos.
The ASCSN Secretary-General, Comrade Alade Bashir Lawal, who made this known said the aggrieved expelled members led by the former President Comrade Bola-Audu Innocent with other aggrieved members tried to force their ways into the secretariat with their hired hoodlums that came with various charms and other dangerous weapons.
So, the police was invited to help prevent confrontation with them and also to help restore law and order.
“Expelled members besieged National Secretariat of ASCSN in Lagos in an attempt to forcefully invade the Secretariat.
This led to the invitation of police to help prevent break down of law and order.
The Lagos State Police Command advised that the Secretariat should close
for business today so as to avoid a breakdown of law and order.
According to Alade Bashir Lawal, “Innocent Bola-Audu was accompanied in the invasion of the ASCSN National
Secretariat by some retired staff as well as suspected hoodlums including
marabouts who openly displayed their charms. We wish to request our teeming members throughout the country to
remain calm as the situation is under control.”
It would be recalled that the former president, Bola-Audu Innocent has been at logger head with the current leadership of the union being led by Comrade (Dr) Tommy Etim Okon, over his expulsion following his anti-union activities.
