By OLA MUDOPE, Lagos –
The National Administrative Council (NAC) of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) has fInally sacked Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya popularly known as MC Oluomo as the Lagos State Chairman of NURTW.
NAC also dissolved the Lagos State council of the union with immediate effect.
A statement signed by the NURTW President, Alhaji Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa, and general secretary, Alhaji Kabiru Ado Ya’u, said the decision of the council was in line with the provision of its constitution.
According to the national body, the decision was taken following Oluomo’s failure to show remorse over his actions.
“In view of the fact that nature abhors vacuum, the state secretary of the union, Comrade Seyi Bankole, is hereby directed to take over the running of the affairs of Lagos State council pending the constitution of a caretaker committee after consultation with relevant authorities.
“The National Administrative Council, during its meeting of March 15, 2022, graciously passed a resolution to grant pardon to the suspended state chairman if he showed remorse and tender unreserved apology to the union. However, up till this moment the suspended chairman has bluntly refused to do so, hence, the decision to take action against the Lagos State Administrative Council by dissolving same.”
