NURTW has never collected revenue for the govt anywhere. NURTW collects membership dues. Govt officials or govt appointed collection agents collect revenue on behalf of government.

Note that the ban is against constitutional guarantee of freedom if association. Also, why should a convicted murderer be appointed to head the Disciplinary Committee? Especially someone that killed while struggling for leadership of NURTW? Why won't the other faction see this as govt sanctioned takeover of parks and heading over same to their enemy that lost out to them?

Officialgarri:
If NURTW goes on strike, isn't that a good riddance of them?

Who enjoys their presence anyway?

A case of someone caught within a plot to be roasted for meal, and he thinks the best way to protest it is by dousing himself with oil

Firefox01:
Nothing more irritating than a stubborn Ignoramus. Small and Oyo state can't be used in the same sentence.

irunoko:
lagosians no get to their destination even with okada ban? How much more small oyo state

These guys should stop feeling indispensable jare

Let us leave all this semantics and say the reality on ground, they collect revenue via ticketing and harassment, by the way I didn't mention "for government", if they are unions then they should fix a date for their union meeting, then the members go there, drink beer and pay meeting contribution money as it meant to be, not sitting in the park, harass drivers, collect loading money, that is only used for the enjoyment of their leaders for a position gotten by violence. They should not collect money and leave the park and drivers. If oyo state wants to increase their igr via transport, how would it be if nurtw is also collecting illegal money. Baba I grew up in lag and I know how those guys do their stuffs. As for auxillary, you have a point there but I feel to tackle them you have to have someone as hard as them, better still let the governor replace him.

NinjaMetahuman:
did this nigga just call oyo small?

Oyo is bigger than entire south east combined.

Ibadan is the 3rd biggest city in the whole of africa. You think trekking it will be easy peasy like lagos?

You must be dumb.

Lagos state is the smallest state in the south west Nigeria?
While oyo is the biggest?

Please go and register for geography, social studies and history classes before discussing with me

GreyLaw:
Ogbeni, before you throw jabs at people make sure you have your facts. By size (surface area), Oyo state is bigger than all Southern states and also bigger than Sokoto, Nasarawa, Katsina, Jigawa, Gombe even Kano! Yes, Lagos is the smallest state in Nigeria.

The Government would win this of course. These guys knew if this is successfully done in OYO and IGR is drastically increased, other states would likely follow pattern.....
They are clamouring for themselves, not any member.

There so much misconception about the revenue at the motor parks and how it's generated.
Inside approved standard motor parks the local government generates revenue, the state government gets its own while the transport union(s) also collect.
Because of corruption, little of what is supposed to go the governments get there but the NURTW gets most of its revenue intact which makes it earn most from motor parks...What NURTW is doing in parks is what tailor association or barber associations do, the only difference being some NURTW tickets are daily, mostly for the unit a driver belongs.
Some of these tickets are daily, weekly, monthly or annually

Why my epistle, the only thing that will be different when park managers begin to manage the parks is that the government will make more money as the corruption loopholes would have been blocked. The government CANNOT collect union dues......... All those millions unions collect daily are actually union money NOT state government revenue

do u have alternative means of transportation in oyo state if they tell thier people to down tools.i just laugh at most of the people commenting on nairaland

Small Oyo state This is definitely ignorance talking through you. Ibadan, Oyo state capital alone is the largest city in WEST AFRICA. In landmass, Oyo state is bigger than whichever southern state you're from by far!

obainojazz:


NURTW... The craziest job in Nigeria... Those Agberos and their chairman can decide to beat a driver or deflate his tyres...
As far as I'm concerned.. They should get a real job or should all be in prison

Going on strike would be the best thing sef... Yeye

An executive of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) Lagos state chapter, Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya popularly known as MC Oluomo, joined a host of others yesterday to celebrate the birthday of Abba Kyari, the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) commanding the IGP's intelligence response team.

Abba Kyari, who recently turned a year older, was hosted to a surprise birthday dinner with friends and colleagues yesterday in Lagos.

Internet users have shared their opinion on the "unholy"union between the crime buster Abba Kyari and MC Oluomo due to his 'reputation'.

Meanwhile, Mc Oluomo is celebrating his birthday today, two months after surviving a stab wound which was inflicted on him at a political rally of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Lagos State.

Watch the video from MC Oluomo's birthday celebration below.

Ruined Lagos?

If making a state the 5th largest economy in Africa is " ruin " then they better continue ruining Lagos.
Funny people

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

azikiweironsi:
I can see that you must be one of the NURTW members if not, you won't be arguing like this. May be also, you are not a resident in Ibadan to witness the behaviours of this union in the city. Who built the parks ? Let's see how their strike will go self. Nonsense set of people.
