Musiliu Akinsanya, better known as MC Oluomo, has officially stepped into his new role as the National President of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), marking a significant moment in the transport union’s leadership. The event was marked by a ceremonial debut in his Abuja office, where he began his tenure in full regalia, including a traditional white agbada and a black cap.
The occasion was widely shared on social media by MC Oluomo’s son, Idowu, who is also known by his stage name, King Westt. In a post on his social media accounts, King Westt uploaded several photographs from the event, offering a glimpse into his father’s new position. One particularly striking image showed MC Oluomo sitting at his desk in the well-appointed office, exuding an air of authority and celebration.
“Mr President’s first day of work in Abuja,” King Westt captioned the post, which immediately garnered attention online. The phrase “Mr President” was a playful yet significant reference to his father’s new role, drawing both admiration from supporters and curiosity from critics of the NURTW leader.
The image posted by King Westt also highlighted a symbolic detail in the background: a large portrait of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The photograph, taken in the sleek and modern office, captured the portrait hanging directly behind MC Oluomo, an addition that was not overlooked by observers. For many, this subtle gesture underscored the close political connections MC Oluomo is known to have within Nigerian political circles.
Supporters of MC Oluomo have long viewed his leadership of the NURTW as an extension of his significant influence within both the transport sector and the broader Lagos political landscape. His appointment as national president is seen by many as a reflection of his growing stature in Nigerian politics and union leadership.
