Bros,
You have tried to bring this rumour up on Nairaland.

I call it rumour because you don't have a prove,

* You heard it on Nigerianinfo fm without a witness report.

* There might be a protest ; the headline says RUMUOBIAKANI but your report says RUMUIKISHI ,

* From your post here, it's like you are not even residing in Naija.

* I do know that in portharcourt, SHELL operates in THREE "Rumu's"

1.Rumuokwurushi:Residential Area
2. Rumuogba : Recruitment Area .
3. Rumuobiakani : industrial Area

i have not heard of any protest @ Rumuikishi.
ANYWAY ,
Let's keep our eyes & ears open
If there is further breakdown of law and order,
the following people will be blame for it:.
* Mr. GEJ
* Police CP
* Madam PJ
* Minister N.W.
Meanwhile I expect the govt to set up a 5 or 9 man committee to look into it..

kaze4blues: Jobless sets of illiterates....



Is shell the FG who must cater for their welfare?


After all, the first lady is from their state.

Instead of them to acquire quality education, they will be roaming the streets waiting for govt to spoon feed them.

Abeg, park well

Over 20,000 youths working in shell as contract staff...can't they employ them as direct staff....does shell not have the money to pay them ,instead of paying them peanut in the name of contract staff,is this not exploitation...you cannot find this in other oil producing countries in the Middle east and Asia....what is wrong with us..

what really surprised me is the fact that, these angry youths don't have what it takes to be employed. they don't have quality education, the kind of education in the south south is amazing.
ordinary shl test they can not pass, even the few that try to scape cut off marks, you will vomit while interviewing them, they don't have the qualities, imaging what they are fighting for, that is to show their level of intellegence.

well shell is already planning to sell off her assets in port harcourt as they did in warri and warri is now a ghost town. I think in another 2-3 years shell must have completed all the sales of her assets and move to Lagos finally. this call by the youths is a catalyst to shell's plan to leave port harcourt. youths you are fighting the battle you can never win, instead go back to your elders and ask what they did to the money they could have used to give you the quality education that could have made you employeable anywhere in the world. to be very frank with you, you don't have the qualities, shikenah.

another serious perenial problem is for instance when these people now on Nairaland agitating for employment get the emplyments or jobs. they relax and forget about the others who dont have jobs these employed graduates in shell and other coys and organization should always think about other graduates that are unemployed, those yet to graduate or become graduates by devising strategies that will create opportunities for these group of people.

CCIECLASS: The truth is that, there are a lot of youths already working in shell, shell has the largest employee rate in the country for an oil and gas company. a company cannot employ everyone. some disgruntled youths are unhappy and decide to prevent everyone from working. face the government first, before you face a private firm. i work with shell and i can tell you currently we have over 20,000 so called youths working as contract staff with shell, tell me which other oil and gas company employs that much.

Shell on her own , employs less than 6000 people ,many of whom are expatriate .all shell does is to buy oil blocks ,most of the other work is done by servicing companies like trans ocean,Halliburton etc.
they interviewed and employed many of their employees straight out of foreign universities .

Oil companies short change Nigerians a lot because of the land use act. Everyone s clamoring for true federalism and this government is keeping deaf ears. That will go a long way to address at least some vital issues.

You are very wrong. SPDC is run and managed by 90% Nigerian staff (full staff not contract). The remaining 10% expats are a result of exchanges (Nigerian staff are also working in Shell companies in other coutries) and then specialised fields. Any body in Oil and Gas will tell you tah SPDC develops her local staff very well, no difference from foreign staff. As to "just buy Oil blocks" you are also wrong. No major Oil and Gas company just buys oil blocks, they also plan the development and management and thats why they employ the best engineers.There are many skill pools in the oil and gas business and thats why you have contractors like SLB, Baker etc and also a lot of local ontractors too.

seriously?
as in contract staff? let me corroborate it with this guys story

DonalĂ° Genes: so far latest is that thousands of youths of rumugbiakane, that shell industrial area( sorry am not too conversant with the name) as aptly said by one of protesters(a contract staff)
He is screaming that he is working as a contract staff and he is been paid a beggarly 30k monthly, that his employees told him that if he is not okay with his monthly pay that he should resign"
"And then other protesters said they have almost 3000 staff from warri as against those in rivers state"

seriously again.

worldmoney: you must be very stupid calling the people from south-south dull, you product of a leaking condom. i have seen very intelligent people from the south-south unemployed while stupid/foolish yoruba's like yourself are employed and you want the people to keep quiet so u can keep 0n during the wonderful work u are doing, for your information gone are the days when the yoruba's are the only intelligent people in Nigeria. i know self centered fools like yourself will employ a contract staff to do a job while you keep the job for your brother who is yet to get his bsc

I never said you are dull, but if you say so I agree, at least a very good example is the president you produced. if a president from your region, with PHd, as he claimed to have been educated, everything from uniport then the kind of education in the south south is questionable.

but come to think of it, I tot you guys derive more income from bunkering. LOL. don't worry your fight will soon be over. point of correction, I'm not from yoruba, I'm from the middle belt but I rwalised that you south south people have very bad mind against the Yoruba people. there is nothing you can do about their excellence. god has blessed them he has blessed them. try and see what they are doing right and copy from them. Biko.

thank u very much my brother.. There are intelligent graduates in rivers but those ones are not given the opportunity.. Majority of shell workers are non indigenes (don't want to mention names).. And those non indigenes always carry their relatives along I.e fixing them in oil companies.. Leaving the indigenes to suffer
