Baruwa remains NURTW national president, says aide

Alhaji Suleiman Adamu, Senior Special Assistant to the President of the National Union of Road Transport Workers on Industrial Union, Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa, has said Baruwa remains the overall head of the NURTW.

He was reacting to a misrepresentation in a news report on the coverage of a recent public hearing by the House of Representatives Committee on Land Transportation in which he represented the national president.

In the said report, Alhaji Adamu who stood in for Baruwa at the public hearing was mistakenly addressed as president of union.

Adamu said in a statement on Saturday that the mistake was from reporters who covered the event and stressed the need for the correction of the wrong impression created.

According to Alhaji Adamu, Baruwa remains the substantive president of the union

He advised journalists to always crosscheck their facts to avoid misrepresentation which could lead to passing wrong information to members of the public.
