The leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), has kickstarted moves to resolve the ongoing dispute between the leadership of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) and its Lagos State Council.
According to a press statement signed by the Congress’ General Secretary, Comrade Emmanuel Ugboaja, “A closed-door meeting was convened in Abuja between the executives of the Lagos State Council of the union and NLC reconciliation committee chaired by the President of the Maritime Workers Union who is also the National Trustee of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Comrade Adewale Adeyanju.”
The statement further stated that, “Frank discussions were held and there was optimism that the conflict would be resolved amicably soon.
“In keeping with the principle of fair-hearing, the Adeyanju-committee will be meeting with the leadership of NURTW on a date yet to be determined.
“A joint meeting will thereafter be held with the two parties for the full and final resolution of the conflict.
“It will be recalled that a dispute between the Lagos State Council and the national leadership of NURTW led to the suspension of the Lagos Council which in retaliation asked the Lagos State Government to take control of motor parks in the state.
“Concerned about the growing dispute, Congress elected to offer leadership by apprehending the dispute.”
