The Board of Trustees, Executive and the entire members of the Council of Maritime Transport Unions And Associations ( COMTUA) have congratulated the President General of Maritime Workers Union of Nigeria (MWUN), Comrade Adewale Adeyanju on his election “to the highly referred position in the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC)” as its 1st Deputy President.
A letter addressed to Prince Adeyanju and signed by the COMTUA National President, Comrade Adeyinka Aroyewun, stated that “We saw it coming, we knew it will happen and we strongly believe it is well deserved.
“We sincerely hope you will see this as a larger National position that should develop you into a more National leader beyond your bias for the interest of Maritime Workers Union alone.
“We are glad you are now lending your voice to call for the arrest and prosecution of hoodlums extorting and causing mayhem along port access roads and corridors ; I shall be prompt to intimate you that they are led by Taofeek Shoriola, a member of your union whose stock in trade is to extort truckers using you as his shield.”
COMTUA averred that Prince Adeyanju’s election will afford him a golden opportunity to prove his mettle and strongly believes that he has greater height to reach with wise counsels.
