Members of the National Union Of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) in Osun State have appealed to Governor Ademola Adeleke to return them to their motor parks and allow them operate in the state.
This is as they called on the national body of the union to support them in returning to their garages, months after the union was dissolved by the state government.
The appeal was made in Osogbo on Thursday said during a meeting of the leadership of the union in the state.
Speaking with newsmen, a chieftain of the Union in the state and an ally of former governor Adegboyega Oyetola, Kazeem Oyewale, popularly known as ‘Asiri Eniba’ urged the governor to forgive whatever he might have perceived as the wrongdoing of the union.
He advised members of the union in the state to be patient, adding that things will be back to normal soon.
He said, “We use this medium to thank Almighty God on behalf of Osun State Government. We want to plead with the government to please have mercy on our union.
“It’s been over a year since we operated last in Osun state. Everyone present today has a family to feed, the government should please forgive and forget in any way we offend them they should not let
“We are seeking the support of our acting zonal chairman in Osun state because all the union members are suffering in the state. He should look into the Osun state situation because we’ve been suffering for over a year now.”
