Activities of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) have been suspended indefinitely in Ondo over the clashes between different factions of the union.

Members of the union fought over the control of motor parks on Tuesday, leading to the death of one person.

At a press conference in Akure, the state capital, Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu asked NURTW members to stay off parks.

He condemned the “unruly and uncultured” behaviour that led to violent attacks on members and citizens.

The unionists on Tuesday caused pandemonium around Oja Oba, Adesida Road and other parts of Akure, shooting sporadically while residents scampered to safety.

The incident happened barely 48 hours after many people sustained injuries after unionists fought in the Owode area of the state.
