The Chairman of Lagos State Parks and Garages, Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya, better known as MC Oluomo, has declared his return to the National Union of Road Transport Workers.
According to Daily Trust, this came after the factional President of the body, Alhaji Tajudeen Agbede, lifted his and other members’ suspensions in the South-West.
Speaking at an event on Thursday, Akinsanya lauded the Lagos State governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu for his support towards the union during the ‘trying periods’ while describing the transition as a new dawn in the organisation to its “original home”.
Recall that MC Oluomo was in April 2022 suspended by the NURTW in the peak of the crisis with the President, Alhaji Tajudeen Baruwa, while he was immediately appointed by the state governor as the Chairman of Parks Management Committee.
While thanking the governor for his support, he reiterated the Union’s commitment towards supporting the THEMES agenda of the Lagos State governor and also ensuring uniting all members irrespective of affiliations.
He said, “As we transcend from Lagos State Parks and Garages to NURTW. The revamped NURTW (both at the National Level and State Level in Lagos Sate) will not rest in our oars to support the Themes agenda of His Excellency in Lagos State. As we all aware that in the Themes agenda, T represents Transportation. We are therefore using this medium to reiterate our full corporation to all the giant strides of His Excellency in the Transportation Sector in Lagos State.
“We might be transiting in mere name change, but we will not deviate from the necessary supports, cooperation and the cordial relationship that existed between us LASPG and the Lagos State Governor through the Ministry of Transportation.
“As it is being opined that “Unity is “progress” the Alhaji Musiliu Ayinde Akinsanya led Lagos NURTW is geared towards uniting all members irrespective of affiliations. While also using this medium to embrace all Union members hitherto outside to come home and by the grace of God, they will be adequately inculcated back into the mainstream Lagos NURTW.”
