THE Lagos State Rapid Response Squad has arrested prominent members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers in the state, Kunle Poly and Sego.
The police arm, led by its Commander, CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi, arrested the NURTW leaders on Monday.
The police said Kunle Poly and Sego are principal suspects in the recurring clashes in Idumota and its environs.
The crisis had intermittently crippled commercial activities in the area. The latest clash occurred last Thursday.
“The arrest was effected today at a meeting where the two NURTW members along with some other stakeholders converged,” RRS said.
“Kunle Poly and Sego are currently being transferred to Zone II, Onikan, Lagos.”
The PUNCH had reported that two persons were feared killed during a clash between two factional members of a transport union in the Idumota area of Lagos .
