The Ogun State government has dissociated itself from the internal affairs of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) in the state
Chairman, Ogun State Park and Garages Development Agency (PAGADA), Habib Ajayi, said the Dapo Abiodun-led government had no problem with the leadership of Alhaji Mustapha Ismail popularly known as Yaro in the state.
Ajayi made the clarification during an interview with newsmen in Abeokuta.
Sunday Tribune reports that here had been internal wrangling among the members of the union which has since been resolved with the re-opening of the union secretariat in Asero, Abeokuta last year.

Meanwhile, Nigerians have taken to social media to berate the Olubadan for his actions saying that Ehi isn’t a Yoruba woman neither does she hail from Ibadan, hence the reason why she should not be honoured with such a title.
A few of them didn’t mince words with their disappointment.

The Lagos State Chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Musiliu Akinsanya, aka MC Oluomo, is set to launch a book in March titled, ‘My Service to Humanity’.
However, his spokesman, Jimoh Buhari, told The PUNCH that the book had nothing to do with 2023 politics but was merely a biography of the NURTW boss.
Buhari stated that this was not the first time his principal would be rumoured to be contesting the Lagos State governorship election.
He, however, said Akinsanya had no political ambition at the moment.
Responding to the buzz the book had generated online, Buhari said, “The book is not yet ready but should be launched around March when MC Oluomo’s birthday will be held.
