This article highlights the ongoing struggle of the Chevron EGTL workers in Nigeria to receive fair treatment and benefits from their employer and contractors. The workers have been protesting and demanding a uniform contract with benefits and allowances that are in line with local and international labor laws. The fact that some contractors have raised wages while others have not, and that other benefits promised by Chevron Nigeria management have yet to be implemented, is deeply concerning.

It is important that Chevron and its contractors take the demands of the workers seriously and take immediate action to rectify the situation. The workers have been employed at the facility for over a decade and deserve to be treated with respect and fairness. The fact that they had to resort to protests to have their voices heard is a clear indication that their concerns have not been adequately addressed.

It is also important to note that the workers are appealing to traditional rulers, the President of Nigeria, the Minister of Petroleum Resources, the Governor of Delta State, and the member of the House of Assembly Warri federal constituency, to intervene and demand that Chevron and its contractors fulfill their promises. This is a clear indication that the workers have exhausted all internal channels of communication and have not received a resolution.

Overall, this article shines a light on the ongoing struggle of workers in the oil and gas industry to receive fair treatment and benefits, and the need for companies to ensure that they are in compliance with local and international labor laws. The workers deserve to be treated with respect and dignity and should be provided with fair contracts and benefits.

In the third quarter of 2022, the workers of Chevron's Escravos Gas to Liquid (EGTL) facility in Nigeria staged protests against the poor treatment and lack of benefits they had received from their employer and contractors. The workers, many of whom had been employed at the facility for over a decade, reported that they had been working without signed contracts or fair conditions of service, and that inflation had greatly reduced their daily pay without any increase.

In response, Chevron and the workers engaged in a round table talk and agreed to meet all worker demands by the end of December 2022. However, as of now, while some contractors have raised the wages of their workers, others have not and have claimed that their contracts are separate from those of other contractors. Additionally, other benefits promised by Chevron Nigeria management for December 2022 have yet to be implemented.

The EGTL workers are now calling on traditional rulers, the President of Nigeria, the Minister of Petroleum Resources, the Governor of Delta State, and the member of the House of Assembly Warri federal constituency to intervene and demand that Chevron and its contractors fulfill their promises. The workers are requesting a uniform contract with benefits and allowances that are in line with local and international labor laws, including:

Harmonization of renumeration for all contractors and joint venture partners
Pension plans
Medical allowances
Abolition of the "no work no pay" policy and implementation of time off rate
End of year and Christmas bonuses
Housing allowances
Transportation allowances
Production bonuses
Maternity and sick leave
Life insurance
Safety allowances
Night shift allowances for night workers
Annual salary increments
Child educational support
Payoff/end of contract settlement
COVID-19 inconvenience allowances

The workers are also appealing to the traditional rulers, Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse III, Pere of Gbaramatu, President of Nigeria, the Minister of Petroleum Resources, the Governor of Delta State and the member House of Assembly Warri federal constituency to call on Chevron and their contractors to immediately implement these demands.

SLAVERY A REALITY IN CHEVRON-EGTL ESCRAVOS, NIGERIA


We, the junior workers in Chevron-EGTL, Escravos. Nigeria, we have so far been treated as slaves with no regards to our Health and Welfare, this has been our greatest concern for far too long and we can no longer bear it.

Despite the reality that we are exposed to various types of dangerous Chemicals and Gases on a daily basis, there is no medical retainership arrangement for our treatment. When we fall sick at work we don’t have sick leave they will only book us out of the site to sort ourselves without official hospital to take care of us, we have to borrow money to treat ourselves and to make matters worse for the days we are away treating ourselves, we will not be paid because there is no sick leave or compensation for us the workers.

“We are demanding for Medical Retainership care for us giving the hazardous environment in which we work”

“We are also demanding sick leave and Compassionate leave that will help us when the need arises”


A situation where our female workers put to birth and they will not be paid for the period they are away for child birth is highly regrettable because there is no maternity leave

“We are demanding Maternity leave for our Female workers”


A system where there is disparity in the remuneration of workers of the same Craft all in the name of Terminal-Inhouse and EGTL, regardless of both been the same Chevron and more so in the same Escravos where the Terminal-Inhouse contract is far better than that of EGTL despite the known fact that work activities and hazards are higher in EGTL than Terminal.

“We demand Harmonized rate between Terminal-Inhouse and EGTL workers - for “One Escravos” to be beyond mere words”


A situation whereby workers are kept at home without pay or any form of compensation, leaving workers with nothing to take care of their family, putting workers in a vulnerable state causing them to beg and borrow money, is unacceptable.

“We are demanding a Time-off rate to be applicable for all workers”

You will not understand the struggle and suffering people are going through in Escravos. Workers are suffering trust me.

#KATSINASEXCAPADE



...I had this angry look when I found out that i was posted to serve in Katsina.. I hated everything around me including the girl that printed the call-up letter out.

So I started planning on my long trip to the wilderness, where I was not known.. I got everything on my bucklist, from the white shoes to the waist bag.

The journey was never to be imagined as I joined some other CM's in the Benue Links 18 seaters bus crawling to Katsina.

Well, we got there at about 11:40pm (Nigeria Time) and I most confess, the camp was so beautiful, interlock, tall buildings, fascinating parade ground, street lights and spacious.


Meet some CM's there and the ritual of getting to know each other began... I was struggling to hijack a bed space at the boys hostel when one young lady tapped me to help her with her bucket of water, on her head, I did that with the speed of light just to concentrate on the bed I want to hijack from one Hausa boy.... But this lady said something that made me lose focus, she said and I quote;

"You're not nice at all" and walked away like a duck fowl... I got the bed space and I marked my territory by spreading my legs and mosquito net immediately.

I saw this lady again at the famous MAMI market, I wanted to let her know that, in Warri, "Furck up nor dey sawa" aggressively, but I remember that I am neither in Warri or Benue State... Surprisingly, she walked up to me where i was trying to negotiate the price of Alomo Bitters, and said;

"Wicked Corper, what's your name? I told her that she's sick, then she burst into laughter, and said i shouldn't mind her, she introduced herself to me, a very beautiful Yoruba girl..(Motun....)

We got to know each other when we walked down to the other end, then exchange numbers, I got back to my rugged lodge filled with womb shifters and she sent a text message for us to meet the next day evening....


We met at the camp clinic and everywhere was extremely cold, she narrated how her boyfriend did blah blah blah blah blah to her, I was just there listen and sipping my wrapped Alomo Bitters to reduce the cold, then something happened.... She stood up and said i should help her dust her really nice ass, I wasted no time to carry out that assignment, then out of nowhere, she turned and gave me a kiss... As a sharp Warri boy, I had to do some routine check for a quiet place and I spotted one "Isolation centre" suitable for quickie, I dragged her there romantically and same time checking my waist bag for my original gold circle condom inside the wallet my pastor friend bought for me... I pinned this black busty beauty to the wall and pulled her white shorts down so quickly, then I fixed the condom, by this time, all she was whispering was "Jason, do you really want to do this"

I ignored those talks and kissed her passionately before inserting my dick in her already wet paradise... It was fast thrusting, and silent moaning until one useless camp doctor came out to urinate close to were we are having some good time.... I quickly pulled her white shorts up and tell her to run through the other way...

The doctor saw that i was not smiling, so he just said "good evening" and walked away.


We had sex four good times at the camp until they posted me to funtua were i met a Kogi Tigress.

Jason I don't catch you, na watin you dey do for nairaland be this abi, Igwe must hear this

Ayomideayo:
Op! U cannot ask about her plans on furthering her education, what course she wants to study or what skills she has interest in..u want to plug charger in her charging point abi...later on she go get belle u will now come back here and be asking us drugs for abortion

You have a point, but how many girls dem don ask about what they will like to study or how they will further their education? Even if a guy ask them the same question and they tell you what they want to study what will you do about it? People have been asking us what we want to be come when we grow up and may will say doctor, lawyers and Engineer..... But will later end up being a fashionister or an online Fashion liners lol.

Well Girls of this days have no better way of spending their time but with a male companion they feel comfortable around and before you know it broda go shift Her pant.

My advice better not start what you can't finish, in other words lose what you can tight and tight what you can lose. Brothers and sisters use your sense �

The most special day of the year has come. Happy birthday to myself! No matter what people say or think, I know that I’m the best. May God keep me like this happy and cheerful forever!

Start your relationship all over again, take her out, make her happy, change her wardrobe do things that will get you attracted to her again and after that work on yourself, focus on looking good for your woman if possible Change your wardrobe as well.....smell nice get that charm again and I believe it will help you trust me.

I know all the things I mentioned above might not come easily because you'll need financial support but all the same it is at the expense of your marriage as you claim you love your wife( family) so do anything to save it if that will be the cost.

Thanks.

Do you often feel like the day have too few hours for all that you have to do? Do you constantly feel exhausted even when you have been sitting all day? Are you getting irritated and angry at the slightest provocation?

These are all signs of mental fatigue, or your brain begging you to stop and take a break.

Mental fatigue is a condition caused by over-taxation of your cognitive abilities, when your brain reaches its capacity limits and goes into continuous stress mode. Long term mental fatigue can cause serious harm through increased stress, diminished brain performance, and even serious conditions like insomnia, Depression, Eating and Anxiety disorders.

Most common symptoms of mental fatigue include:

Mental block
Irritability
Emotional eating
Lack of sleep
Confusion and faltering executive functioning
Overwhelming sense of exhaustion

What causes mental fatigue?

Any kind of mental activity, if driven to its tipping point, can cause brain exhaustion. But some mental activities can be especially enhausting for your brain if not allowed proper rest and rejuvenation period.

Decision-making
Jobs that require almost constant decision-making are more prone to cause mental fatigue. Decision making particularly engages your executive functioning capabilities and it is one of the busiest areas of your brain. This doesn’t even have to be big decisions, just signing legal documents all day, and even having to choose between options constantly can have the same effect.

Procrastination
Whatever our brain may tell at the moment, putting off a job endlessly is a far more stressful experience than actually doing the job. The anxiety about whether or not we will be able to finish the job eats up our mental energy, thereby exhausting us far more quickly.

Lack of sleep
Sleep is essential for almost all your bodily functions, but most visibly for your brain. A lot of important mental processes happen during our sleep, apart from providing the crucial period of rest and rejuvenation. Lack of sufficient sleep over a long period of time adds to our body’s sleep debt and that is one of the biggest causes of mental fatigue.

Multi-tasking
Taking up more tasks than you can comfortably complete in a given period of time is a surefire formula for mental fatigue to set in. Our brain does not work well when it has to constantly shift between different tasks; it divides our mental energy and as a result none of the tasks receive enough attention. Multi-tasking is likely to end up in fast depletion of mental energy, exhaustion of executive functioning, and heightened anxiety – all causes of mental fatigue.

How to overcome mental fatigue
Have more green spaces
Greenery and natural environments have been scientifically proven to have an almost magical effect on stressed-out brains. Just 10 minutes in a park can increase productivity by almost 50% by soothing and healing an overworked brain. Schedule times during the day to have a walk in the neighbourhood park, or if you have any woods lying about your home or workplace, nothing like it! If you don’t have access to outside green spaces, surround your workspace with potted plants.

Keep your life boring
Decision making is one of the biggest depletors of mental energy, and having a simple and repetitive routine is a good way to minimize choice and decision-making in day-to-day life.

Have the same meal five days a week.
Meal prep for the week ahead on the weekend. Wear the same kind of clothes every day. Clean your dishes as soon as you finish eating so things don’t pile up later.

Wake up and go to sleep at the same time every day
You’d be amazed how much energy can conserve just by switching to the ‘boring’ life.

Schedule several breaks through the day
Every 35-45 minutes, get up from your workspace and take a 5-10 minutes break. Just flex your legs, grab a coffee, look away from all the screens, go out to the balcony. Keep the breaks short, but have many of them throughout the day. These little rest and rejuvenation periods go a long way in replenishing your energy capacity throughout the day.

Be realistic about tasks
Be realistic about your capacity each day and take on tasks accordingly. At the start of each day, draw-up a to-do list with high to low priority ranking. Also note down short-term and long-term priorities. Assign an estimate of time needed to complete each with enough resting periods. If your task list exceeds your timeline, shift some on the next day or delegate responsibilities when possible. Taking on more than you can chew is only going to shoot up your anxiety levels, further depleting your mental energy and interfering with your ability to complete the task.

Conclusion
Our lives are busy, and responsibilities keep piling up as we age. In all the humdrum we tend to forget the one organ that bears the biggest brunt of all our tasks – our brain. Remember, nobody can toil endlessly; there’s a tipping point for everyone’s brain. So listen to your brain when it seems overwhelmed and wants to stop. There are bigger problems at store if you don’t.
