Oil Workers’ Strike: Government Is Putting Heads Together- PENGASSAN Boss

The Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) is to meet with government officials on Wednesday to resolve issues surrounding the ongoing strike by members of the union.

The President of the union, Mr Francis Johnson,
disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in a
telephone interview on Monday.
“Government has called the union for a meeting against
Wednesday.
“The strike is ongoing we have started and everyone
can see it.
“There is total compliance in some of the oil
installations in the country as the strike continues
tomorrow.
Johnson said that the level of compliance to the
industrial action by the oil workers was impressive.
NAN reports PENGASSAN and the National Union of
Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG)
embarked on an indifinite strike on Monday to protest
what they called the anti-labour practices in the sector
by employers and the non-passage of the Petroleum
Industry Bill (PIB).
Others grievances are the inability of government to
carry out turn-around maintenance of the refineries
and reduce pump prices of petroleum products in line
with the slump in global prices of crude oil.
The strike is also to ensure that government evolves
new strategies to combat pipeline vandalism and crude
oil theft that have impacted negatively on the nation’s
economy and employment in the country.
The unions are also protesting the non -implementation
of the Nigeria Oil and Gas Industry Content
Development (NOGICD) Act to reflect Nigerians in
management positions and expatriate quota law,
among others.
