A Court of Appeal Abuja Division has affirmed Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa as the authentic President of the National Union of Roads Transport Workers.
The court also affirmed the judgment of the Industrial Court delivered on March 11, 2024 in respect of Suit No. NICN/ABJ/263/2023.
The court held that the appeal filed by Najeem Usman Yasin, Tajudeen Agbede and others challenging the decision of the Industrial Court that recognised Baruwa as President lacked merits and therefore dismissed it.
In a Certified True Copy of the judgement with Appeal No. CA/ABJ//CV/293/2024 delivered on Friday, November 8 by a three-member panel; Justice Hamma Akawu Barka, Nnamdi Okwy Dimgba and Asmau Ojuolape Akanbi, also declared Baruwa as bona-fide and legally elected President of the union.
The appellate court also awarded the sum of N100,000 against the Appellant in favour of the Respondents.
