The union stated in a statement on Wednesday titled, Dissolution of Lagos State Administrative Council, that the decision of the NAC was based on the provisions of the union’s constitution. The statement was jointly signed by Alhaji Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa, the president, and Alhaji Kabiru Ado Ya’u, the general secretary.
In the meantime, the Secretary of the State Council has been appointed to oversee NURTW activities in the state.
“Because nature abhors a vacuum, the state secretary of the union, Comrade Seyi Bankole, is hereby directed to take over the running of the affairs of the Lagos State council pending the constitution of a caretaker committee after consultation with relevant authorities,” the statement reads in part.

The statement also advised all members of the union in the state, as well as the general public, to stop dealing with members of the now-disbanded Lagos State Council on union matters.
The national body stated that the decision to dissolve the Lagos State council was made due to Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya, the former state chairman, failing to show remorse.
“At its meeting on March 15, 2022, the National Administrative Council graciously passed a resolution to grant pardon to the suspended state chairman if he showed remorse and tender an unreserved apology to the union.” However, the suspended chairman has flatly refused to do so up to this point, prompting the decision to dissolve the Lagos State Administrative Council,” according to the statement.
