The crisis rocking one of the transport unions in Benue State, the Peace Tricyclist Association of Nigeria, PTAN, has taken another dimension with the expulsion of its Secretary General, Comrade Stephen Vembe.
The crisis started following allegations of gross financial misconduct against the ousted chief scribe of the association which metamorphosed into his immediate removal.
Chairman of PTAN in the state, Comrade Asember Boston, Secretary Javis Iju, and other stakeholders in a statement on Thursday, advised Comrade Vambe to henceforth stop parading himself as a member of the union.
The union leaders warned members of the public against transacting any business of the union with the deposed PTAN scribe on its behalf.
They noted that the decision to expel Vembe was taken during the union’s general congress with stakeholders which unanimously endorsed his expulsion from the union following his gross misconduct and corrupt charges leveled against him.
They cautioned members of the public not to transact any business of the union with him and further advised him to stop parading himself as a member of the union.
