The National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) has been embroiled in a conflict with its rival, the Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN), for over a decade. The NURTW has been accused of breeding touts, but the union's secretary, Dr. John Olaoye, claims that the union does not have anything to do with RTEAN as the latter does not legally exist. The NURTW structure and functions have been affected by Decree 4 of 1996, which has led to a series of conflicts and attempts to resolve them. The union has requested that the motor parks be designated as its offices to effectively carry out its duties to its members.
