A group, under the umbrella of Prominent Indigenes of Lagos, has charged the state government to stop all taxes illegally collected by the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) on Lagos roads and give them to local councils, for maintenance of roads, provision of health services, infrastructure and other needs.

Of all unions in Nigeria, NURTW is the most rugged and useless of them all . They're are political tools for our politicians hence, it can never be scrapped and government doesn't want to regulate or checkmate their activities either. 113 Likes 6 Shares |

Nice one....and I hope bus drivers are part of this movement / agitation else it will be dead on arrival...how can a body be involved in tax collection without any benefit to the TAX PAYERS directly or indirectly?!!!! It's baffles one to know that the Government also backs these touting useless union activities!. Proactivity Leads To Productivity!!! ©Seniorwriter 32 Likes 3 Shares |

helinues:which Union are they reorganizing with those set of men? Before any progress can be made to attain a mega city standard, befitting Lagos, on the activities union of transport workers, majority of those men have to be done away with, which is tantamount to scrapping and establish a new one 52 Likes 1 Share |

helinues: NURTW is the most useless union in the whole world & contributing biggerly to accident we see on the roads (both highway & local roads) These NURTW collects high levies from drivers without considering what will be drivers income at the end of the day. Let me use Oshodi as example, over 20 agbero will collect levies from just one driver & in return driver will transfer the aggression on innocent passenger by increasing transportation cost. Now, sometimes when they are trying to collect money by force from drivers it will leads to fight between driver & agbero of which while driver was trying to run away he might drive very tough thereby lead to accident. Also, they do contribute greatly to most accidents we see on highway due to their excessive charges. Drivers are unable to maintain their vehicle properly due to excessive charges collected by NURTW thereby making the vehicle non road Worthy which in turn leads to accidents These NURTW don't check veichle Tyre, numbers of passengers, engine conditions, because all they know is for driver to load their buses & they get paid. functions of NURTW is to always check each vehicles doing interstate transport every morning to know the vehicle is in good shape, check Tyre to know it's not expired or worn out, organize seminars for drivers from time to time but they don't do that except to collect money & bounce 53 Likes 3 Shares |

NURTW enjoys freedom of association like Nigerian Bar Association, National Union of Teachers... They are duly registered and can levy themselves as they deem fit If the PDP group wants to end them as they did in Edo and Oyo State, then Hackney permits, LGA taxes can't be collected from them using different agency . 5 Likes 2 Shares |
