The statement released from the Lagos State Government reads in part,
“The Lagos State Government has set up a committee to oversee the affairs of all motor parks in the state. This is in fulfillment of the Government’s promise to ensure that events in the National Union of Road Transport Workers are not allowed to threaten law and order.”
“The Government on March 10 suspended NURTW operations in all parks and garages, following the tension sparked by some events in the union.”
