The Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal has removed Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly known as MC Oluomo, from his position as the National President of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW).

The court also affirmed Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa as the authentic President of NURTW.

The court also affirmed the judgment of the Industrial Court delivered on the 11th of March 2024 in respect of Suit No. NICN/ABJ/263/2023.

The court held that the appeal filed by Najeem Usman Yasin, Tajudeen Agbede and others challenging the decision of the Industrial Court that recognised Baruwa as President lacked merits and therefore dismissed it.

But, Baruwa described MC Oluomo’s action as blatant disregard and disrespect for the rule of law and an affront to the judiciary.
