The support staff of Kaduna refining and petrochemicals company a subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation has just sacked about 200 support staff on 31 march 2020 without proper consultations.
Just at the time, the support staff are expecting their jobs to be regularised having served the corporation for several years ranging from 10-15 years in the production and maintenance departments of the refinery with meager salaries without Hazard or Medical allowances and made to work under hard condition over the years.

The disengagement has come after been deprived of participation in the just concluded recruitment exercise which criteria was not favorable to most of them and in other to pave the way for the newly intake the exit door was shown to the vast experienced staffs.
Precisely on the 4th and 5th of November 2019 an oral interview and verification exercise was conducted which rekindle the hope of these hard-working staffs that better days are ahead, only to be shocked by the directive from their management that their contract should the terminated with an outrageous severance package.

The entire support staff of KRPC is calling on the leadership of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and the NUPENG to come to their aid at this time when the whole world is ravaged with the COVID-19 pandemic to see that their source of livelihood is protected by the virtue of been financial members of the NUPENG and in the spirit of INJURY TO ONE IS INJURY TO ALL.



We are also calling on the President of the Faderal Republic of Nigeria President Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR) and the honorable Minister of State for Petroleum Timipre Silva to use their respected offices to prevail over the action of the management of the
NNPC. Going by the directive of Mr president that no worker should lose their job at this time of this coronavirus pandemic.
