THE Chairman of the Caretaker Committee for Lagos State Parks Administration, Oba Sulaimon Adeshina-Ashade, on Wednesday, October 5, 2022, abolished the ‘Abuja levy' and daily levy paid by members of dissolved unions and affiliates under his organisation.
According to media reports, Oba Adeshina-Ashade, who is the Oniba of Iba in Ojo Local Government, also fixed #20,000 as a weekly levy, comprising #18,000 levy and #2,000 running cost, as against the “arbitrary and exorbitant” daily fees members paid.
The monarch was recently elected to the organisation’s Caretaker Committee following the dissolution of the Road Transport Employees Association of Nigeria (RTEAN) in the state.
The monarch, who spoke at a stakeholder meeting in Akesan, in Alimosho LGA, urged aggrieved members of the dissolved unions and affiliates, including tricycle associations, to give peace a chance
“There can be no progress and comfort without peace, hence the need to forgive one another…” he said.
