Monarchs, Akure Base Lawyers Turn Touts In Anambra, Take Over All Motor Parks - Nurtw

*cries out for Obiano to remove them, restore the Union

*may shift guber support, if....


More ten thousand-member strong Anambra chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers(NURTW) Newsflashngr.com can report, have threatened to pitch their political support elsewhere should the state governor, Willie Obiano continues to flout the court order restoring them to their duties posts in Anambra motor parks.

They also raised alarm, accusing some lawyers, traditional rulers and established business executives who have manipulated the situation and taken over their functions in the motor parks, unfortunately as part of political patronage from the ruling All Progressives Grand Alliance and the governor.

In an interview with journalists in their Onitsha headquarters yesterday, the NURTW state Chairman, Chief Austine Udozor, flanked by his executive disclosed that the issues they had with the state government in the past had been resolved in their favour by the state High Court last October 2016.

He said it was sad that their job has been handed over to all manner of persons ranging from some Akure-based lawyers, Traditional rulers and business men, thereby turning the state's transport sector especially the parks into an all-comers affair, despite two subsisting court judgments to the contrary.

Chief Udozor said, "...despite these, we are still appealing to the governor to restore us back to our duty posts in the parks.

"It is very unfair and unnatural to take away the job of a medical doctor and hand it over to carpenter.

"Let all the Lawyers who have taken over our jobs go back to the courts to argue cases; let the traditional rulers who have invaded our motor parks go back to their thrones and palaces to run their communities, while those traders/business men who took over the parks withdraw and move back to the markets and mind their shops and wares.

"We, NURTW should be allowed to take back the motor parks. That is our area of specialization and calling. We frown at the way our job was take away from us and given out to even lawyers who operates and reside in far away places as Akure, Ondo State; Jos, Plateau State; Eleme, Rivers State and traders in Onithsa Main Market, Agbor, Wuse Market(FCT), Tejuosho Yaba, Mile 12 Ketu, and some in Balogun Lagos Island and Gwagwalada (FCT)....", he emphasized.

The union, according to Udozor has made several representations to the governor for amicable settlement and audience but had been repeatedly rebuffed.

He noted having written several letters and applications for a 5-minutes audience with Gov Obiano, through some of his top aides, but none had yielded any fruit. So they have concluded to make one final attempt after which they would mobilize their large membership and dependents to another political camp in the forthcoming Nov 18,2017.

Obiano is the best Governor. We don't need NURTW.
