The Court of Appeal has sacked Musiliu Akinsanya, aka MC Oluomo, as the new national president of the National President of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, NURTW.
Oluomo’s sack came barely three days after announcing himself as the new leader of the transporters union.
In its ruling, three-member panel of the appeal court upheld the earlier judgment of the National Industrial Court, which had sacked MC Oluomo and reaffirmed Tajudeen Baruwa as the legitimate leader of the union.
It dismissed the appeal filed by MC Oluomo’s faction after a properly conducted election held at the union’s headquarters in Abuja returned Baruwa to office, declaring it as lacking in merit.
“This is an appeal against the judgment/decision of the National Industrial Court Sitting in Abuja, in Suit No. NICN/ABJ/263/2023, delivered on the 11th March, 2024, by Justice O. O. Oyewumi” the Appeal Court held.
“Upon reading the Record of Appeal compiled and transmitted before this court, together with the respective briefs of argument, and after hearing the counsels for the appellants and respondents, it is hereby ordered that:
“This Appeal is devoid of merit, and the same is hereby dismissed.”
