Members who preferred anonymity expressed their displeasure over the decision, which they tagged as an infringement against their recruitment into the local government administrative system.

Governor Fayose explained that his administration’s plan to re-introduce the enforcement of traffic regulations is to ease traffic congestion usually experienced in Ado Ekiti, the state capital.

Leaders of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE) were said to be at a cross-roads whether to support the government planned directive or not.

The previous administration of Kayode Fayemi introduced the State Traffic Management Agency (EKSTMA) popularly called Dagrin, but its officers were disengaged by Governor Fayose for reasons undisclosed.
