After initial denial, Oyo govt appoints ex- NURTW chair, ‘Auxiliary’ as park manager

The Seyi Makinde led administration in Oyo state has finally  inaugurated motor park managers to manage the affairs of motor parks, garages and quarries in the state.  

 

Speaking at the launch today (Monday), the state Commissioner for Public Works, Infrastructure and Transport, Professor Raphael Afonja, charged the managers to discharged their duties without any fear.

 

The Chairman of the Committee is a former National Union of Road Transport (NURTW), chairman in the state, Alhaji Lamidi Mukaila popularly known as  ‘Auxiliary’, and the Secretary is Alhaji Tajudeen.

Mega Icon Magazine recalls that the state government through its  Commissioner for Public Works, Infrastructure and Transport, Professor Raphael Afonja, had on Friday dismissed media reports from the leaders of the proscribed Oyo State chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) protesting alleged plan by Governor  Makinde  to appoint Alhaji Mukaila Lamidi (A.k.a Auxiliary) as the state motor parks manager.

Afonja stated emphatically in the press statement obtained by our reporter that the 33 park managers to be named had no connection with the NURTW.

 

“Regarding the appointment of Mr. Mukaila aka Auxilliary, as one of the park managers, he is not. The list of all park managers in each local government will be unveiled by Monday. Every local government will have a park manager” the Commissioner reiterated.
