NUPENGASSAN Flays Gale Of Sacks At NNPC

Workers, under the aegis of Nigerian Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers and Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (NUPENGASSAN), have challenged the new GMD of NNPC, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, to recover the stolen trillions of Naira in the oil and gas sector rather than retiring and sacking innocent workers.

The workers claimed that the fight against corruption should not be turned against workers whom government have sworn to protect

NUPENGASSAN, in a statement signed by the NUPENG President, Comrade Igwe Achese, and his PENGASSAN counterpart, Comrade Francis Johnson, in Lagos, at the weekend, said the two unions in the oil and gas sector have reservations about the approach of government to the reform programme in the oil and gas industry without carrying the two unions along in the process.

Part of the statement read: “We dare the new GMD of NNPC, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, to recover the stolen trillions of Naira in the sector than retiring and sacking of innocent workers. We see the action as an act of cover up.

“While we are fully in support of the fight against corruption, the fight itself should not be turned against workers whom government swore to protect. The ongoing exercise portends a great danger in the oil and sector, if workers are meant to bear the brunt of government current action where the fight of corruption is now used as an act of vindictiveness against workers.
