The law gives workers the rights to join unions but it does not force employers to employ workers who are in unions meaning an employer can decide not to employ members of union and it will not be termed illegal by any court.
You can't also fire your employees for deciding to join unions. Do you now see where Dangote erred?

@ bolded. That's when dangote choose to defy the law of the country and international laws and sack workers for joining union

2nd NNPC does not give anybody license for anything, you can't write a long epistle of what you don't know

Dangote is owing nnpc a lot of money somewhere

No PENGASSAN leader is in any filling station or has any business or invested interest with any anywhere in this country

Who suffers more? Dangote, the sacked workers, the thousands of Indians replacing Nigeria, the common man, the uncommon man, together in unity we will all suffer for the injustice meted on those sacked workers

NNPC is not Pengassan and pengassan is not nnpc. Why not also call out total, Chevron, nlng, seplat, shell and the rest because their staffs are also pengassan members.

If NNPC refuses to sell crude to dangote, let him buy from total or mobil, or seplat or Chevron they are all crude producers

Go and read your books for next year utme abeg. For your mind now you have written an essay

Injury to those sacked workers is injury to everyone. When we learn to stand up for each other, oppression will end
I wasted my time reading this rubbish. Why don't u go create job and employ those people who he sacked.The man gave them job and paying them well.instead to face thr jobs they are planning how to destroy his business. If the refinery completely shut down will u force dangote to employ even a single person. The useless union why haven't they built thr own refinery.

DEXTROVERT:
As an investor
You build a very big hospital
Or university
That stabilized the nation

Suddenly ASUU
Said your lecturers should join strike
Or NMA said your doctors shouldn't work.

Let's reason it out
With ASUU /doctors or nurses strikes
Do private universities or hospitals go on strike
Answer is NO
Does it mean they are not protected by their union

PENGASSON NUPENG,
Encroached these guys for reasons best known to upset their employer
They target is to ground things,
Raise the petrol price which is expected in few days so that their petrol station jerk up prices and they make gains from Nigeria as usual

Do you know
These economic sabotage are usually timed when
Things appears better, Naira is stable approaching 1400, Petrol is down 865. LPG 920

Suddenly all PENGASSON leaders filling Station will cause chaos and raise their prices

who suffers, the people
Who gains independent marketers
Its all a set up to maximize gains by same cabals who will never allow a drop of fuel refined from the NNPC

For anyone who thinks Dangote want to monopolize all
Tell PENGASSON and NUPENG
TO build their own refineries and compete not to bring down what is a respite at the moment


Now
For
Any foreign investor in oil and gas especially towards building refineries
Or even mechanized agriculture
How do they get courage seeing how NNPC, PENGASSON, NUPENG, DAPPMAN, IPMAN are dealing with dangote.

NNPC delayed license to start
Later they said dangote fuel has Sulphur
Later they denied their truck drivers
Stopped supply of crude, he had to buy elsewhere
Later stopped naira for crude

Yet
FG
Watches in limbo
The problem is that we just allow labour exco members to swim fat in corruption and go free.
Labour union leaders are more corrupt than politicians. They all feed on workers sweat, deducting percentages from every worker every month and squander . They all live in affluence with their families while workers live abject poverty.
It's high time EFCC chanell their torchlight on labour leaders, they are thieves

You can still get license to build your cement factory or refinery in Nigeria. BUA refinery is coming up in Akwa Ibom and there's also BUA cement. Mangal cement just started production.

So what is monopoly if other players can still get into the field?

Why is efcc and DSS not picking these terrorists union guys up now. Build a new jail for them for cry out sake. This strike move should count as treason. Their reasons have been out rightly illogical and not for the greater good ..🤔

It looks like you don’t know what you are saying.

In Dangote, there’s nothing like unionism. How would you exercise your right of joining when the person you want to work for said he doesn’t want it in his company?
It’s not by force to load file or work for DANGOTE. If they can’t comply, let them go.

Don’t you know that it is when you are working that you can join labour union? If you don’t have a work, you can’t be a member.

What DANGOTE is saying that you can’t practice unionism in his refinery, if you are his worker.
They can look for job elsewhere. He doesn’t say they are not free to join but they can’t practice it in his company.

All there dues l, contributions, deductions etc would pass through Dangote’s HR and accounting records and DANGOTE doesn’t want that.

Those staff that DANGOTE retained are the ones that have signed and chosen not to join a union

Can you get a job in Microsoft today and you will say you want to become a part of a labour union, when Microsoft doesn’t allow that?

It is only in Nigeria that we use religious and tribal sentiments to look at issues.

Anyways, I don’t think you have worked in higher roles or as a strategic oga in a better company. That’s why you people only imagine things and base your opinions on your imaginations. Stop joining bandwagons of empty heads.
Don’t mind that ikennaoma fellow.

And the same strike will be used get justice for workers sacked unjustly

So much ignorance in one post. Most Nigerians like to comment on what they know absolutely nothing about.

NNPC doesn't issue license to refineries, infact they are competitors with Dangote refinery.

Secondly, unionization of workers isn't a privilege, rather it's the worker's right guaranteed in our constitution and also in compliance with the ILO(International Labor Organization) regulation.

We have IOCs operating in Nigeria where we have PENGASSAN as a union.

Harmony and progress have always been sustained. Why does Dangote feel that he can hire and fire Nigerians arbitrarily?

Are they slaves to only be spoken to? Who does that?

Fire Nigerians as if they are in a labor camp? Come on guys, Nigerians can't be treated that way abroad and be treated the same way in their God given land.

This act shall be resisted to the end. Unionization of Nigerian workers doesn't mean death to the organization.

This is evident in other IOCs who have been operating in Nigeria for over 50yrs and have had their workers unionized.

If Dangote doesn't have ulterior motives, why is he afraid of the Union?

Not like any confrontation has taken place yet. Let him go back to the dialogue table and discuss.
Why is unionizism not allowed in the banking sector and manufacturing sectors in Nigeria.

Do not mind those guys. Suddenly, they now support Dangote.

They are evil peeps. That's why they support that Dangote refinery workers not to join any union so that they can be sacked at slightest chance. Then, be paid peanuts because there will not be collective bargaining.

Does ASUU includes to private universities? Now, apply that sentiment to a private refinery. Some of you people will just come up with stupid analysis. It is the we the selfish masses that are putting the Nigerian masses in suffering, then after you will blame the government for your suffering. All these unions are created for their selfish members purposes....and not for the betterment of Nigerians. Let PENGASSON go on strike, then let us suffer long fuel queues and rise in transport fares. Or let Dangote refinery fold up and we go back to importation. Useless country full of useless people.
