Popularly referred to as Agbero, operators of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) and Road Transport Employers of Nigeria (RTEAN), are major actors in the transportation sector of Lagos State, and indeed other States across the country.
To some, Agberos are into legitimate undertakings, while others simply see them as interlopers who compound the State’s transportation challenges. However, irrespective of contrary opinions, in the real sense of it, Agbero, by its original concept, is doing a legitimate business. Shocked? No doubt, I am sure a lot will be surprised to hear this, but don’t crucify me yet.
