Some of the workers would still be called back to the refinery. But they will NEVER join PENGASSAN/NUPENG again with this experience. Unless the worker is a fool.
So Dangote has won.

MuchAdo:
I mean the Unions have failed...

emirate9:
Are the indians or chinese complaining Dangote is colonizing or enslaving them ... remember they enter plane come naija by themselves

MuchAdo:
They have failed woefully so far.

Indians, Chinese and Lebanese continue to ride roughshod on Nigerians.

MuchAdo:
We don't care!

So far there are NO unions in Dangote refinery

PENGASSAN can go to hell. It's game over for them. No union can hold Nigeria hostage anymore

kayosi:
Good moves by both parties and i believe Dangote will keep to the agreement reached. Don K

fitinwell:
Nigerians can be easily cornered... No wonder a political strategist can generate lies to Nigeria by hand picking anyone even an ex convict.. or with nepa result to rule us...

Indians are taking over our jobs... And all u say is that Dangote is smart here... Wait until your child grow up... By then you will understand..

princepee:
on top of another man's business
Nnpcl and pengasn should build refinery and employ only Nigerians, you don't expect dangote to employ those who will sabotage his refinery.
Look the man resigned from sugar and cement to face the cabals in oil industry....
Anyone wey do anyhow go collect

Temidayo9:
The company in question is in Free Trade Zone. Anyone national can work there

RandDigital:
Very suspicious considering he's a former police minister and there's currently an inquiry into corruption in that ministry.

South African ambassador dies after falling from Paris hotel room
Story by Kieran Kelly


Emmanuel Nkosinathi Mthethwa was found dead near the Hyatt Hotel at Porte Maillot - South African Embassy in Paris
South Africa’s ambassador to France has been found dead after falling from the 22nd floor of his hotel room.

Emmanuel Nkosinathi Mthethwa, who was reported missing on Monday, was found dead near the Hyatt Hotel at Porte Maillot in Paris on Tuesday, sources told Le Parisien.

Mr Mthethwa, 58, was reported missing by his wife after she received a “worrying message in the evening”, the Paris prosecutor’s office said. Fearing that he had taken his own life, the police started a search party in the woods in western Paris.

Mr Mthethwa was appointed to the role in February last year. He also served as South Africa’s permanent delegate to Unesco after a decades-long career in politics.

The union alleged that many of the jobs were replaced with more than 2,000 expatriates, mainly from India.

jaxxy:
How did he lie?

jaxxy:
That's why I said he reasons for sacking should be addressed. Sabotage be isolated or systemic.

Systemic Sabotage it is wide spread on needs total overhaul.

Almunjid:
Na me lie about the termination?
Dangote is only battling his adversaries fiercely to protect his refinery from their control. It is apparent how these deceitful individuals are trying to take advantage of the Dangote Refinery's launch for their own gain.

jaxxy:
In same sack post. He said there was a threat to safety of the refinery and sabotage therefore measures were being taken by the mass sack.

Dangote isn't crazy to sack his works who have help get his refinery running but if there is a threat by way if sabotage he has to act decisively.

Trade union must know their place by law and stop acting like mafias.

jaxxy:
Dangote gave his reasons and concerns for the sack so please kindly address those threats to the refinery optimal performance and safety by way of sabotage.

Then u can make ur demands to Dangote on his actions.

Taxpayer support for Dangote refinery

Putting together the most reliably cited numbers:

CBN support via FX allotments / loans: ≈ US$2.7 billion (2013–2023)
Nairametrics
+1

CBN support in naira: ₦125 billion + ₦75 billion = ₦200 billion total in domestic currency support via at least two schemes (domestic cost cover + SMERRF).
Daily Trust
+2
TheCable
+2

“Seed capital” of ₦75 billion reported in 2019 as part of the CBN’s contribution.
Businessday NG

So overall, the CBN has provided several billion US dollars (for FX / loans) plus several hundred billion naira of domestic currency support.

Mirasteel:
Diezani denied it because she was the one doing the fraud and Jonathan was too timid.

ogascomax:
All of you commenting do not know anything that is going on in Dangote regarding Nigerians workers there. Their welfare is extremely poor. While you guys a jumping and clapping for Dangote, the staffs are very happy. You won't write all these if you were working there. Dangote sacked all 85 staffs that helped Dangote during the start up. After a successful start up the rewards for all of them was sacking them then replacing all of them with Indians. He under pays his workers. Now he has sacked over 800 staffs for joining Union. Where is there no Union in the world. Lack of knowledge and information make you guys speak this way.
Union is what check the excesses of employers otherwise they will pay workers peanut, with disregard to safety and terrible working conditions.
If Dangote staffs or any other company subject their staffs to extremely bad working conditions based on risk assessment. It's Union that can intervene otherwise terrible CEO's will take advantage of such loopholes to stifle workers and they won't have a say.
