Baruwa, Ya'u dissolve MC Oluomo's Lagos State NURTW council


Following Alh. Musiliu Akinsanya (MC Oluomo) refusal to show remorse after his suspension by the national leadership of the National Union of Road Transport Workers(NURW), Alhaji Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa, NURTW national president and Alhaji Kabiru Ado Ya’u, general secretary, in letter jointly signed on Tuesday, April 5, 2022, have announced the dissolution of the Lagos council of the NURTW under his leadership.
The duo of the National President and Secretary of NURTW, acting on behalf of the National Administrative Council (NAC) of NURTW in the letter seen by Editorials, titled:- Dissolution of Lagos State Administrative Council, revealed that the decision of the body to finally dissolve MC's led administration was based on the provisions of the union’s constitution.
It would be recalled that the union under Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya (MC Oluomo) in Lagos state has been in a running battle with the national body of the union in Abuja.
He was suspended for insubordination and in retaliation, he (Oluomo) on 10 March, 2022 at a press conference voluntarily announced their exit from the NURTW.
He was to have been granted a pardon after the mediation of the leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress and other well meaning opinion leaders on condition that he would show remorse and tender a apology.
NUTWW's NAC however said the national body took the decision to dissolve the Lagos State council due to the failure of MC Oluomo to show remorse.
“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 shows remorse and tender unreserved apology to the union. However, up until 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.”
It therefore directed the state secretary of the union, Comrade Seyi Bankole, “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 statement also advised all members of the union in the state and the general public to henceforth desist from dealing with members of the dissolved Lagos State council on issues concerning the union.
