DeLaRue:
'... from the new members class, I graduated from The Redeemed Christian Bible College, also School of Disciples to become a worker, then a Deaconess and later an Assistant Pastor in 2018'

According to you, someone that went to bible college, and attended School of Disciples, then became a deaconess, and assistant pastor, is not fit to be a pastor huh

Majority of pastors in Nigeria today have not even stepped foot in a bible college, yet this woman did, yet you still find fault.
Attending a Bible College is not a criteria to be called or ordained a Pastor......
Not that it is not good, but it's not a Scriptural criteria if that is what you're intending to point out.

You better be reading the Holy Bible which holds the WORD of God and check the criteria such position.

The Word of God transforms only those who yield to the quickening Spirit of the Lord.

PoliticsRe: Group Led By Deji Adeyanju Condemns Dangote's Sack Of 800 Workers by bixton(m):
Manny21:
The real saboteurs are the labour cabals benefiting from the suffering of the common man. The labour leaders are stinkingly and super rich. They use these rank and file workers to protest and go behind to collect large bribes from government. They often call for warning strike when they are broke. Dangote knows where this is coming from. It is like covenant university lecturers joining ASUU and blaming Oyedepo for sacking them when they go on strike
You know nothing about UNIONs

Please be informed that PENGASSUN EXCOs are also workers within the IOCs earning salaries/wages from their respective employers and likewise their members.

Your analogy of private university and private refinery does not follow. It's too distinct operations. Just because it's private doesn't make it same.

We will see how it will turn out..

Good luck to Nigeria expect any further investors to come in..last year Nigeria only attracted a mere 1bn USD in FDI ..Egypt attracted over 40 billion dollars..I don't even want to mention Kenya and the rest ..

Nigerians are the loudest when it comes to destruction..but to build we go silent..

First it was NNPC..
Then we had NUPRC, NUPENG and now PENGASSAN..

let me remind you that Dangote cement have unions there.. this is way beyond aluta for members..

People keep yapping about Dangote workers being maltreated..so is it BUA or Lafarge that cement workers are earning billions.

They are complaining that Dangote is importing foreign workers..
What is the credibility of Nigerian workers in handle critical roles ..or you think it isn't costing him more money to retain foreign workers?.

Which Nigerian company can handle a standard road construction even Nigeria government patronise foreign companies and workers to hire big projects because they know most Nigerian fully owned companies are rubbish ..
You're only delusional if you think the Indians working for Dangote have integrity over Nigerians.......
I don't even know if there's any significant difference.

One thing about Nigerians bringing in foreigners is that it makes it easy to launder funds through such persons and their subsidiary companies.


Likewise when you say there's no Nigerian company that can deliver standard road construction.......I can't even remember if there are still whites working as project engineers or site engineers on every road construction done in the South South region.....it's been quiet long I saw them.
These things are not rocket science.

Opebiman:
You are not seeing the bigger picture
If it is voluntary...why does the union want to shove it down the throat of the company..
Their stands IS that all the company's workers must be under union.. and this is for ulterior motives..
You can continue to deceive yourself that it is truly for workers welfare.. cabals who want to bring down the refinery want to use the workers to penetrate into the facility and control..

A clear example has been set.. IOCs who have no business with this are about to go on strike.. the union didn't go on strike when 3bn dollars was spent to rehabilitate dead refineries and none of them work today ..

Even the cement manufacturing division of Dangote group have unions.. it is not like the Dangote hates the initiative..

This case is different

.you think Dangote is a fool to not know what they want to use so called Union to do his refinery?
NNPC tried by trying to starve the refinery from receiving crude. Dangote went ahead to import crude And the fact that his facility sits on a free trade zone gives him the right to do it and most importantly..his facility can crack any crude meaning he doesn't need to stay dependent on Nigerian crude..NNPC failed..

NUPRC tried by calling products from Dangote concentrated with impurities (sulphur) today Nigerians attest to the fact that the product of the refinery are the best for their engines...NUPRC failed..

NUPENG tried by threatening to prevent lifting of products from the refinery..Dangote bought 4000 trucks to do it himself..they failed..

It is PENGASSAN turn..let see how it unfold..

Some how ..all these unions never stood up when the refineries died..when people were stealing crude and subsidy money.. when people imported adulterated products because they are complicit..

You can keep deceiving yourself..
Please go and find out the roles of NUPENG and PENGASSUN in the industry and it's significance to employees of labour.
If you don't even know those who are UNION Executives are also employees within the industry.
You only hear Dangote bought trucks and nothing NUPENG could do about it. You need to find out how it was resolved, that particular issue. Please don't ask me.

It is not the place of PENGASSUN to ensure that the Nigerian refineries are working or not. No, it's never their place for members of PENGASSUN and it's EXCOs all over Nigeria are still employees.

It is like NLC telling the FG to employ people in government establishments......

ASUU not going to strike yet has nothing to do with CONUA but ongoing negotiation. You don't go on strike while negotiation is ongoing. It is against labour law. CONUA is irrelevant and can't be used to checkmate ASUU.
Very irrelevant CONUA and many don't even know.

How I wish it would be that anytime the FG honours their agreement with ASUU those in CONUA doesn't benefit then many will understand how it is..

A lot of Nigerians don't have thinking heads. They just cap nothing believing they are saying something.

The benefits of PENGASSUN to employees directly and indirectly in the industry far out weights the troubles.

PENGASSAN are quick to cite "laws of the country" which they themselves blatantly flout at every given opportunity.

The "laws of the country" which they cite talks about "freedom of association" but, PENGASSAN is making belonging to an association "compulsory".

So, who's disobeying the "laws of the land" when all workers are being constrained into belonging to a union by force?

Where, therefore, is the "freedom of association"?

The Industrial Court and, indeed, the Supreme Court needs to clarify this burning issue if a stop is to be put to the excesses of PENGASSAN and her affiliates.

It's in such public outlets you'll know a lot of people don't have balanced ideas and understanding of things, that's why they talk from both sides of their lips...

The Nigerian law states that workers are free to associate or join unions and a company law states that it's workers are not to join unions....
Please which of the law is expected to take precedence?

Is this not the reason why the Fulani herdsman is protected by the law and the farmer whose crop is destroyed by the yhe herdsman is not protected by the same law.
It's this same that allows Muslims to kill anyone who they always alleged to blaspheme their god and Mohamed but when it comes from other religions they are arrested as a fast a jet speed.

Anyways what is the main purpose of unions in any organization of which those who are in higher management who stifle the necks of subordinates also benefits from the winnings of such Unions.

Many of these people applauding Dangote as a private business who makes profits are the ones who come out to complain that prices of foodstuffs and other commodities are on the high price...... please don't you want these businesses to make profits like Dangote and co!!!!!!

Fundamental issue here is that NUPENG is a gang of self-serving blackmailers and mercenaries with hidden agenda. This is not about the welfare of Dangote Refinery Drivers/workers.

They are acting in a dictatorial and lawless manner simply because they wish to be able to blackmail Dangote at will, for 'egunje', once his workers are in their union and compelled to obey their strike order.
What makes religion any different from it?
Is it not the constitution that says "one is free to associate with whomever one chooses"...... As long as the association does nothinder the progress of the country!!!!!
