Sanwo-Olu appoints sacked NURTW boss MC Oluomo chairman Parks Management Committee

The Lagos State government has appointed former chairman of the state chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), Musiliu Akinsanya (MC Oluomo) as head of the Park Management Committee recently set up to oversee the affairs of all motor parks and garages in the state.

A statement issued by Commissioner for Information and Strategy Gbenga Omotoso, said the step was in fulfillment of the state government’s promise to ensure that events in the NURTW are not allowed to threaten law and order.

Oluomo was initially suspended by the national body of NURTW for insubordination. He was, however, sacked as the chairman of the Lagos State chapter this week, putting an end to his reign.

Following his suspension, the state government, on March 10, also suspended all NURTW activities in the state, with a promise to put in place a committee to see to the running of motor parks and garages.

Omotoso however aid: “The government has, therefore, exercised its constitutional powers to ensure that no vacuum, which can disrupt the peace of our dear state, is allowed to exist in the parks. This is a duty we owe all Lagosians and  visitors.”
