The union said the group wanted to hide under the guise of staging a protest against the just concluded 10th Quadrennial National Delegate Conference held in Lafia Nasarawa State on Wednesday August 23rd 2023 to cause crisis and unleash mayhem on the FCT residents.

According to a statement jointly signed by The union’s president, Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa, who was re-elected for a second four-year term last week and general l secretary , Anthony Asogwa Chukwudi on Monday in Abuja, NURTW noted that they have credible intelligence that the group had already imported thugs to perfect their plans and invade the National Secretariat on Monday August 28th.

The union however described the planned protest as a campaign of calumny against the leadership of the union aimed at causing confusion and foment trouble.

The NURTW warned that thewould not condone any act of lawlessness by the disgruntled element and had notified the police and other relevant security agencies of the planned actions of the group.

The statement reads in parts, “We learnt that their plan is to disguise as aggrieved members of the union and stage a violent protest in order to perpetrate their nefarious activities and attack people in the FCT and destroy property at the secretariat.

They have mobilized some thugs and hoodlums into Abuja and held a meeting at a hotel in Wuye on Saturday”.

“We are using this medium to alert the general public to watch out. These people are not our members, they just want to cause violence in the Federal Capital Territory ( FCT ).

We are using this medium to call on the security agencies to rise up to the occasion and prevent the breakdown of law and order”, the statement added.

The union called on the plotters to have a rethink and desist forthwith just as it called on the security agencies to act fast and prevent positive breakdown of law in the territory.
