GOVERNOR Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State has banned the activities of the National Union of Road Transport Workers and Road Transport Employers’ Association of Nigeria in the state.
In line with the latest development, the unions have been banned from collecting dues and levies from commercial drivers across all motor parks in the state.
Senior Special Assistant on Special Duties and Strategy to the Governor, Doyin Odebowale, who disclosed this in Akure on Monday, explained that the ban on the activities of the transport unions was as a result of the leadership tussle among the groups.
According to him, government officials will handle the sale of new tickets directly.
“Every attempt to make life difficult for the people will be restricted and the security agencies have been notified to effect timely arrest and prosecution of the defaulters,” Odebowale said.
