The chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, NURTW, Kwara branch, lssa Ore, has appealed to the Federal Government to revive the moribund tyre manufacturing companies in the country.
Ore told the Newsmen in Ilorin that this would curb the importers of tyres from importing fairly-used ones and also said that it would reduce the rate of motor accidents on the country’s highways.
The NURTW chairman urged the Federal Government to enter into negotiations with Dunlop, Michelin and other tyre manufactures with a view to returning to the country and resume productions.
Ore also appealed to the Federal Government to assist the various indigenous tyre producers in the country financially, saying that it would enable them to be able to produce tyres that would be suitable for the nation’s road and reduce the rate of vehicular accidents usually recorded on annual basis.
