”And without any trouble, Oluomo is free to reign in a trouble-free environment” societynow.ng learned.

Societynow.ng gathered that the arrested NURTW members – from different factions- were engaged in supremacy tussle with MC Oluomo over control of the transport union affairs in Lagos Island.

The chairman invited them to a peace meeting at the secretariat of the Union in Agege(Lagos state) and got police to arrest them for ”making trouble”.

”It is true, they were making trouble but with Oluomo over union matter” societynow.ng learned.

Oluomo has since put NURTW members fiercely loyal to him as the caretaker committee in charge of the affairs of the troubled zone.
