NNPC Staff Protest Planned Sale Of Refineries by CollinsColz(m): 11:28am On Dec 12, 2013 |
No fewer than 200 staff of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation on Thursday in Abuja protested against the planned sale of the nation’s refineries, and vowed to resist the decision. The Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, was said to have stated that the privatisation process would be completed before the first quarter of 2014. The workers, under the aegis of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers Senior Staff Association and National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers, as early as 8.30am, gathered within the premises of the NNPC singing solidarity songs. They were dressed in red shirts and red cap to match. They were led by the NNPC PENGASSAN Group Chairman, Sanusi Abdulkareem, and NUPENG Group chairman, Richard Otuvwere. Some of the Placards read, ‘We say no to illegal sale of our refineries, we cannot be fooled anymore’. ‘Hide not under privatisation to hijack our refineries’, among others. http://www.punchng.com/news/nnpc-staff-protest-planned-sale-of-refineries/

They are scared of facing the same fate as the former PHCN workers. They should take a cue from the then proposed sale of Petrochemical, after all the protest the sale still when through. My advise to them is while protesting they should prepare for the eventual sale and keep something for the rainy day cos it gonna pour heavily. |
