Barely 24 hours after oil workers under the aegis of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, Lagos State Chapter, suspended the plan to withdraw their services, the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria on Thursday threatened to embark on a nationwide strike.
PENGASSAN said in a statement that the issuance of a seven-day ultimatum to the Federal Government would culminate in the shutting down of all oil and gas installations, including disruptions to fuel supply and distribution across the country effective December 18, 2017.
The union accused some indigenous oil and gas companies and marginal field operators of unfair labour practices but only disclosed the name of one company in its statement. Those who are threatened and compelled to disown the union are then treated as slave workers within their own country.
PENGASSAN appealed to all Nigerians to show understanding and to use the window of the notice to stockpile adequate quantity of Premium Motor Spirit and other petroleum products that would last them during the upcoming festive period as the strike would be indefinite.
