Ban on NURTW remains in force – Makinde
Commissioner for Public Works, Infrastructure and Transport, Professor Raphael Afonja, who spoke on behalf of the Governor, declared that the ban on the activities of NURTW still remained in force throughout the state.
He said, “I am here to basically inform you of the recent development concerning the motor parks, garages, and quarries. We are all aware that recently, the state rolled out a plan to engage consultants that will be collecting revenue on behalf of the government, to increase our internally generated revenue in the state.
“Regarding the illegal collection of fees in the state at the motor parks and garages including quarries, moving forward, these park managers and those who have been appointed to collect funds on behalf of the government. “I have been meeting with the unions in the past two weeks. We will soon have an issue with the okada riders. One thing I told them was that the consultants will be collecting N200 from them per day.”
