'Big Joke' - MC Oluomo Reacts To Sack As Lagos NURTW Chairman

Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya  popularly known as MC Oluomo, has reacted to his sack as the Chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), Lagos State council.

Naija News earlier reported that the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) had dissolved the Lagos council of the union and appointed Seyi Bankole as the new head of the Lagos NURTW.

Reacting to the development, MC Oluomo’s spokesman, Jimoh Buhari, stated that the sack of his principal is laughable and senseless, saying that Akinsanya had already pulled out of the union.

In a chat with The Punch, Buhari described the NURTW national president, Alhaji Tajudeen Baruwa and his executive members as comedians for claiming to sack Akinsanya.

He stated that the purported sack of MC Oluomo has no meaning because the NURTW has already been suspended in Lagos and the state government plans to appoint park managers.

He said, “The so-called sacking of my boss makes no difference. NURTW has already been suspended in Lagos and the state government has said that it would appoint park managers in the state.

“So, the appointment of a new Lagos chairman by NURTW is baseless. The union has already been suspended. Is the union more powerful than the state government? Of course, no.

“Also, my boss (MC Oluomo) already pulled out of the NURTW on March 10, 2022, at a well-publicised press briefing in Agege. So, how would the Baruwa-led Abuja caucus claim it has sacked someone who already dissociated himself from the union? It is like sacking a worker who resigned and left a company after one month. It is laughable and senseless.”
