Politics Nigeria recalls that the Lagos Government had, in May, filed an appeal before the Court of Appeal in the state to challenge the judgment of the National Industrial Court which nullified the state government’s appointment of a caretaker committee on transportation.
The National Industrial Court in Lagos had on April 18, ordered the reinstatement of the operations of the Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria in Lagos State and nullified the state government’s appointment of a caretaker committee on transportation.
