*Oil production, fuel supply, others threatened as unions kick

No fewer than 500 employees are about to be dropped from the payroll of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) for reportedly failing to scale through a mandatory personnel assessment and promotion examinations the corporation recently conducted, THISDAY has gathered. Very reliable sources within the state oil company said the issue was already causing disquiet in the corporation. They said this could lead to disruption of NNPC operations following threats by workers’ unions to resist the alleged sack of the 500 workers.

From reports, NNPC has since October 2017 remained the sole importer and supplier of refined petroleum products in Nigeria, especially petrol which independent petroleum marketers have stayed away from importing on account of unfavourable pricing. On the other hand, Nigeria’s oil production has continued to improve from a 2016 production disruption caused by militancy in the Niger Delta.


Sources close to the development told THISDAY that trouble started when the corporation conducted the promotional examinations and about 500 of its staff could not pass it. The 500 are reportedly not part of the workers’ unions – the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) and Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN). They were subsequently issued notices of disengagement, but their issue has since been taken up by the two unions, which sources stated have now pledged to resist the sack even though it means shutting down the operations of the NNPC.

A source who pleaded not be named said, “Some staff wrote promotion exams to move places, as it is the case. They are Chief Officers and Deputy General Managers who are in M5 and M6 cadre. Some didn’t pass for the first time and about 500 were asked to leave, and papers in this regard were served them.

“Right now, there is a lot of tension because that category of people affected are not part of workers’ union.

Weeding out Southerners i guess

Dat one na their problem... How will dey pass ordinary promotion tests wen dey were all employed thru d back door... We all know NNPC and CBN recruitments are reserved for children and relatives of d political class and their partners in affluence most of which didn't follow due process...

correct

Have they started replacement?

Tosinayoko:
Have they started replacement?

hahaha....no chills at all

To be replaced by APC chieftains from Tinubu down

the place for them, the labour market don full

No wonder NNPC decided to cancel the 2014 recrutiment excercise after philip consulting has invited successful applicant for interview. As buhari, recruiment die.

Na dem dem

I hope its the Aboki ones

And who are THESE 500?

Hmmm . . . I hope this isn't targeted at southerners because the amount of donations NNPC has been making towards the north and projects being done for the north is simply mind boggling.
Abuja-Kaduna-Kano pipeline and power plants projects are on-going under NNPC while Fashola, the real power minister has been demoted to a pothole inspector.

not understood

I guess its those who entered through Quota system.... NNPC that's supposed to be for our teeming Engineering graduates, turned to a joke...

Weeding out Southerners i guess

I swear

I'm very sure 89% of the people turned down are southerners with majority been south south..

Just like they stole all oil wells in the south and Buhari government drove all southerners from federal position..

I wonder if the north would allow Nigeria be one if the oil was found there..

Useless parasitic region, I hope you'll get nuke someday

Fulani agenda loading...!
Making NNPC a preserved for HausaFulanis Emirs, politicians, imams and select few kids of useful Afonja slaves down South!

Hmmm

Oh dear.This is sad

chai,nigeriam workers sef..kilode see number...
