Kudus Becomes Lagos RTEAN Chair As Court Kicks MC Oluomo Out

The appointment of Kudus as acting chairman of RTEAN in Lagos is significant as the organization may encounter opposition from other transportation unions and stakeholders following the court’s ruling.

The PUNCH reports that the Lagos branch of the Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria has named Aransiola Kudus as the acting Chairman.

Kudus was named the acting chairman following a court ruling.

Earlier, the Lagos state government had suspended RTEAN activities in the state, dissolved its elected leadership, and established a 25-member park management committee led by Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya, also known as MC Oluomo, to manage all motor parks and garages in the state. However, the National Industrial Court of Nigeria nullified the government’s decision and affirmed RTEAN’s right to operate in Lagos State in a ruling delivered on April 18th.

Comrade Yusuf Adeniyi addressed journalists after the NEC meeting and stated that the organisation was dedicated to following the rule of law and adhering to the court’s ruling. He stressed the significance of unity within the organisation and urged all members to collaborate to enhance transportation services in Lagos State.
