Government said it would not fold its arms and allow the peaceful atmosphere existing in the state to be threatened by any group.

Commissioner for Transportation in Ogun State, Engr. Gbenga Dairo, in a statement, warned the union members that the state government would not hesitate to restrict the activities of the union in public spaces in case of any attempt to breach the peace.

Some members of NURTW in Ijebu Ode allegedly planned to challenge the decisions of the established leadership of the Union in the state and in the process, embark on a protest to drive home their position.

“It has come to the attention of the Ogun State Ministry of Transportation that some members of NURTW operating in Ijebu Ode are challenging the decisions of the established NURTW leadership in the state.

“Further to the above, it is reported that disaffected members propose to resort to violence as a means of demonstrating their grievances.

“This bulletin is to notify and remind NURTW and its members of their corporate and personal/individual duty to conduct corporate and personal activities strictly within the ambit of the laws, rules, and regulations that the Constitution of Nigeria demands,” the statement said.

It warned that the Ogun State government under Governor Dapo Abiodun would not tolerate any disturbance of the peace so painstakingly achieved and sustained throughout the life of the administration.

“The leadership and members of NURTW are enjoined to fully operationalise the constitution of the union and transparently activate the dispute resolution clauses and schedules contained therein as appropriate, and to avoid any action(s) that may endanger lives and property in our dear state.

Finally, the statement reminded all stakeholders that parks and garages in Ogun State are public assets for the safe and secure use of all members of the public and not a preserve of third parties.

It added that in the wider interest of the public, the government will not hesitate to restrict the activities of unions in public spaces, if public safety or security is adjudged at risk.
