Nupeng Suspends Strike

The Nigeria Union of Natural Gas Workers has called off the three days warning strike it commenced yesterday to protest anti-labour practices in the oil and gas sector.


The decision was reached after a five-hour meeting with a Federal Government’s delegation led by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, and representatives of multinational oil companies in Abuja on Wednesday.


The National Executive Committee of NUPENG had embarked on a three-day industrial action to protest the sacking of over 4000 oil workers without benefits by oil firms.
