Nigerian government to meet oil workers’ union after strike halts nationwide supply

  • The Nigerian Ministry of Labour and Employment scheduled an emergency conciliation meeting on Monday between PENGASSAN and Dangote Refinery management in Abuja.
  • The meeting follows a strike initiated by PENGASSAN after Dangote Refinery allegedly sacked over 800 Nigerian workers and replaced some with Indians.
  • The strike has disrupted operations nationwide, with sources reporting that NUPENG members have been rendered ineffective due to the withdrawal of services by PENGASSAN.
  • Minister Muhammad Dingyadi urged PENGASSAN to suspend the strike, stressing the need to avoid adverse effects on Nigeria’s economy and citizens, stating, "We want to resolve these issues amicably."
  • The government aims to broker peace to prevent further economic losses and safeguard the petroleum sector, which underpins Nigeria’s national revenue and stability.
