The Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, (PENGASSAN), has directed its members nationwide to join the ongoing industrial action declared by the Organised Labour.
PENGASSAN in a circular by its General Secretary, Lumumba Okugbawa, to members nationwide, reads in part “Following the resolutions at the joint National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC), and further directive from our umbrella body TUC; we wish to inform you that all members across all Branches/locations in the fields and offices are to withdraw their services from Tuesday, November 14, 2023.
“Branch Chairmen are to ensure full compliance in their respective Branches as this will be strictly monitored.”
Peoplesmind reports that the strike was declared by the NLC, and TUC, to protest the battering of the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, and others in Owerri, Imo state capital on November 1, 2023 as well as the pending labour issues.
