An insider has issued a dire warning.

The next election of the Lagos state chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers may be bloody.

And the reason is simple.

Outgoing chairman Tajudeen Agbede is looking for ways to make troubled branch chairman Kunle Poly – real names Kunle Lawal – his replacement.

The move is described as unpopular amongst other heavyweights in the Lagos transport union body.

This development is said to have pitched him against many in the union.
