NURTW Crisis: Take Over All Lagos Parks, Garages - MC Oluomo Asks LASG by BeeBeeOoh(m): 11:42pm On Mar 10, 2022
Following his suspension by the National Union of Road Transport Workers as the Chairman of Lagos State chapter of the union, Musiliu Akinsanya, aka MC Oluomo, has asked Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to take over the running of all parks and garages in the state.

Akinsanya stated this during a press conference at the NURTW Secretariat in the Agege area of the state on Thursday.

He also announced the withdrawal of himself and his lieutenants from NURTW as a union.

The PUNCH had reported that the national headquarters of the union queried Akinsanya for refusing to carry out instructions given to him in recent times by the national leadership.

Among other allegations in the query dated February 14, 2022, Akinsanya was also accused of resorting to intimidation, harassment, and assault on the newly-appointed Chairman, Tricycle Owners and Operators Association of Nigeria, Azeez Abiola, aka Istijabah.

In his response, Akinsanya, who said he had successfully complied with his oath of office, refuted the claim that he instigated members of the union to assault Abiola.

He, however, noted that the legality of the TOOAN operations in the state is a subject of a suit pending before the National Industrial Court.

Akinsanya also refuted claims of engaging in acts of insubordination and anti-union activities in the state.

Subsequently, in a letter dated March 9, 2022 and signed by NURTW General Secretary, Kabiru Yau, the national body of the union said Akinsanya has been suspended indefinitely for gross misconduct amongst other offences and directed Akinsanya to hand over to his deputy.

Addressing pressmen at the conference on Thursday, Akinsanya said, “I, Comrade Musiliu Ayinde Akinsanya, on behalf of the State Administrative Council, State Executive Council members and the entire union rank and file members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Lagos State Council with over 200 branches and zones hereby resolve to immediately withdraw our membership and operation from the National body of NURTW for peace to reign in Lagos State; write to Lagos State Governor, Lagos State Ministry of Transportation and other relevant agencies about our decision.

“It is important to state that our action is in line with section 40 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended, which provides as follows – Every person shall be entitled to assembly freely and associate with other persons, and in particular, he may form or belong to any political party, trade union or any association for the protection of his or her interests. This means that every person shall be entitled to join an association and exit freely without molestation.

“In view of this and the crisis at hand, Lagos State Government is hereby invited to consider its white paper on Transport Union activities, 2004 section 5C, which states that the Government should take over the management of any garage or motor park where there is a crisis until such is resolved by the consultative committee.

“We hereby call on Lagos State Government to take over the running of the affairs of the Union with the Constitution of a Park Management Committee for Motor Garages and parks in the state, thereby ensuring peace and tranquility, pending the determination of the matter in the interest of the good people of Lagos State.”

We may be witnessing the reenactment of the skirmish that led to the schism of transport unions in the second republic.
Adebayo Ogundare, ALIAS Bayo Success with the backing of late Bashorun MKO Abiola decided to register this same union, NURTW. A break away from the only existing national union suspected to have the support and backings of the UPN, the political party that controlled both Lagos state and the entire SW.
NURTW was registered to spite the UPN and goes full swing to the opposing NPN camp. The political party at the center which controlled the federal government.

CAN THIS MC DECLARE AND REGISTER A PARALELL INDEPENDENT BREAK AWAY UNION AND WITH WHOSE BACKINGS IS LEFT TO BE SEEN AND ACHIEVED?

While it is possible. He is going to need the endorsement of a powerful figure like the Bashorun, for this to become a reality. However, time and season have both changed. This is modern age and time.

THIS FELLOW DETESTS AND ATTEMPTED REBUFFING A SIMPLE DISCIPLINARY MEASURE BY THE NATIONAL BODY OF HIS ORGANIZATION. HOW DOES HE DISCIPLINE HIS ERRING MEMBERS AND UPON WHICH MORAL GROUND WOULD THAT HAPPEN, WHEN HE REFUSED CORRECTION HIMSELF?

What order. When did an invitation to forestall the breakdown of law and order under the jurisdiction of the governor becomes an order? And if he did not act, you dunces will be the first to rush to pass judgement about inaction.

The problem with the semi-illiterates like you is not in being unable to read but reading yet refusing to agree with whatever you read no matter how clear the message is.
The man made his case. He backed his decision with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.
He cited the Law of Lagos state, which gave the governor the power to take over the motor parks, and he invited the Governor to take action in accordance with the law.
A reasonable man would have shown respect to, and praise the NURTW chairman for the peaceful steps he took, yet you are denigrating the governor and the road transport chairman.
Of course, you wanted to see a breakdown of law and order in Lagos, but Musiliu Akinsanya and Gov. Sanwoolu knows what is good for Lagos.
The scientists need to start studying people like you, your brain, and what special circumstances that led to the way your brains developed to the state it is now.

Jobless touts and hooligans have taken over local transportation business in the east extorting the transporters and this has led to several civil disobedience.

Market women, academicians, doctors, students and indeed, igwes are not safe any longer in Afghaneastern.

None of these bother you but a formal and legitimate call to the state gov by Lagos nurtw chairman to assist in addressing some challenges is why you are here typing bunkum.

Has Anambra come up with white paper report on the killing supervised by Peter Obi? I doubt, but you are always at the top of your voice screaming Tinubu and one imaginary killing at Lekki toll gate.

Is it that what happens in the east doesn't bother igbos because they are in Lagos obodo?

If this will bring sanity to the park and end agberoism in parks, so be it. This template should be adopted Nationwide. My only fear is, it's still the same set of people the government may still hand over the park to should they still want them manage. Are there alternative to park management? Probably, total scraping will do but doubt that.

But contrary to the way the media usually portray the man as uneducated thug, he seems well enlightened.

The way he quoted the law in tandem with his action shows he understands the constitution perfectly. Even if it was a written article by his lawyer/PA, he still tried.

The tone used was full of maturity. No hooligan language.

Rubber-stamp sanwo-olu should take over the motorparks and hand it over to you to control as a ballot box snatcher.

You mean you cant figure-out the connection between M,C Oluomo (NURTW, Lagos Chapter), Sanwo-Olu (Lagos Govt) and Tinubu (Lagos/SW Owner)? shocked shocked

MC Oluomo thinks Lagos Motor Parks and the Billions of Naira it provides daily, belongs to him and Bola Tinubu (Sanwo Olu is just an errand boy in the middle) and as such, the National Union Headquarters is just putting their Nose inside his Apple Pie and has instructed their Boy to use his good Office to protect his Mafia organisation.... and Sanwo Olu has done that.

But the Federal Govt too is not unaware of the racket between tinubu and MC Oluomo and l am sure that he might fall down fromhis high Chair very soon, unless Tinubu becomes President and makes him Governor of Lagos State, as promised.

Same scenario with all the MArkets in the Sw, especially in Lagos where Tinubu installed his daughter as the Iyaloja of Lagos.
She takes a percentage of all Shop Rents and everything that is bought and sold in all Lagos Markets

Greed is what will eventaully be the undoing of that Tinubu
