MC Oluomo Reportedly Steps Down As Lagos NURTW Chairman
Musiliu Akinsanya, well known as MC Oluomo, has purportedly resigned as head of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) in Lagos State.
According to reports, MC Oluomo is planning to run for NURTW national president.
MC Oluomo’s decision to quit was alleged to have come after a meeting on Sunday with Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and other important stakeholders in Government House, Alausa, Ikeja.
According to another source cited by Sahara Reporters, President Bola Tinubu also persuaded Oluomo to resign.
However, it is known that MC Oluomo is not really interested in becoming NURTW’s national president since the Lagos State chapter is considered to be more financially appealing than the national leadership.
A source said, “MC Oluomo was forced to step down. I learned yesterday that MC Oluomo visited Tinubu in his house, and the press was not allowed to cover it.
“My sources told me that Tinubu also thinks MC Oluomo is too controversial and did not want to appear with him on camera. Tinubu prevailed on MC Oluomo to step down. He instructed Oba Saheed Ademola Elegushi, Kusenla III, and Wasiu Ayinde K1, the Fuji musician to pass the message to MC Oluomo that he needs to step down as NURTW Lagos chairman or else they will let him be ‘disgraced’ through removal.”
“They gave him national president where he cannot get big money like Lagos,” another source said.
Meanwhile, the current NURTW treasurer in Lagos State, Mustapha Adekunle (Sego), is set to take over the leadership of the transport workers’ union in Lagos.
