PENGASSAN has instructed its members to stop providing gas to Dangote Petroleum Refinery immediately, and all crude oil supply valves to the refinery should be shut.
In a letter penned by the General Secretary, Comrade Lumumba Ighotemu Okugbawa, the union accused the refinery’s management of terminating the employment of workers who are union members. Instead of having productive discussions with the union.
The latter reads: “We bring you fraternal greetings from the National Secretariat. As you are aware, the Management of Dangote Petroleum Refinery has disengaged our members in reaction to the exercise of their constitutional right to being unionized.
“They have gone further on a mission of misinformation and propaganda to justify this illegitimacy rather than engaging meaningfully with us to right the wrong.
“Consequent to these, you hereby directed to cut off gas supply to NGIC effective immediately. All crude oil supply valves to the Refinery should be shut. The loading operation for vessel headed there should be halted immediately.
“NGIC Chairman, ensure that gas supply to the Refinery is cut off effective immediately.
“All chairmen on this summon are to report promptly the progress of the directive.
Kindly accept the assurances of our highest esteem regards. Thank you.
