Ebunoluwa OlafusiThe Lagos State chapter of the Accord Party has asked Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to proscribe the National Union of Road Transport Workers following repeated violence by its members.over the control of motor parks on the Lagos Island area of the state, leaving several people, including traders and commuters, injured.In a statement issued by Dele Oladeji, publicity secretary of AP, the party asked Sanwo-Olu to tame the union by proscribing it immediately.

“This deadly clash created a security scare, in which innocent and hardworking residents of Lagos had to scamper into shops, crevices, under tables, and inside gutters for dear lives.“Many rushed into shops and were locked in with the shop owners, just to stay away from stray bullets or being caught up in the fracas. Traders were forced to shut down their businesses, which led to the loss of transactions running into billions of naira.

The party added that the union’s action had always defied the security set up in Lagos and had created a state of insecurity among residents.
