The decision of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) to dissolve the Lagos council of the union previously headed by Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya popularly known as MC Oluomo has attracted reactions on social media.
Naija News earlier reported the National body of the NURTW also announced the appointment of Seyi Bankole as the new head of the Lagos NURTW in place of MC Oluomo.
The developments were announced in a statement on Wednesday titled ‘Dissolution of Lagos State Administrative Council’ jointly signed by the NURTW national president, Alhaji Tajudeen Baruwa, and general secretary, Alhaji Kabiru Ado Ya’u.
Following the public knowledge of MC Oluomo’s sack, some Nigerians have linked the development to political games ahead of the 2023 elections.
Others say it is an attempt to attack the campaigns of the APC National Leader, Bola Tinubu.
See some of the social media reactions that have trailed the sack of Oluomo as the Lagos NURTW boss.

I thought Lagos NURTW led by MC Oluomo pulled out of NURTW national body sometime ago. How come they now sacked him? A whole Almighty MC Oluomo… ?. I won't be surprised if Lagos state governor changes the name of the body to a different name entirely. MC Oluomo must remain.

NURTW have sacked Mc Oluomo and asked the state secretary Seyi Bankole to take over the administration to avoid leadership vacuum, another huge blow for Tinubu and his camp ahead of 2023 general elections
