This is what I’ve been saying cos my own sibling works at the refinery. The way Dangote has controlled the media narrative on this issue is so crazy. Plus it was all the Nigerian workers that was sacked not 800. Infact my sibling didn’t join the union but was also sacked.

Yeah it’s true on the PPE, my sibling was the same one that bought her safety boot 😂 the company doesn’t provide one for them. I know the way Nigeria is they’ll not want to talk cos they’ll hope to be recalled back but Dangote refinery isn’t really an exactly fantastic place to work.

The memo said “All staff” mehn.. capitalism is a dangerous thing

I can pay 399k per month . Send her my number . Let's talk

INSIDER: Dangote Sacked Refinery Staff Because They Planned to Demand ‘International Standards’

The report contains lies. No sound petroleum engineer will earn 400k per month. Too low. And you could not have been working for many years in a company that is just coming up.

yarimo:
They should resign and go to where they can find international standard na, it's not by force for them to work in dangote refinery.

According to this Dangote staff member, engineers earn about N400,000 monthly, including overtime. After taxes and deductions, take-home pay can fall below N200,000.

“We are even taxed on allowances like birthdays or overtime. Out of N500,000, you could be taxed as much as N164,000,” he said.

OOOKEWALE:
Very stupid statement here. This is why Nigerians are being exploited in their own country.

The situation, according to the engineer, escalated after the circulation of reports that while Nigerian workers received modest increases, Indian expatriates’ salaries were doubled from $13,000 to $26,000 per month.

Indians receiving 26,000 USD per month at Dangote Refineries

BIG LIE!

For instance, a Nigerian engineer might receive ₦383,000 to ₦500,000 monthly (including allowances), while an expatriate with similar qualifications earns $2,000 to $4,000 (₦3-6 million). Unions like NUPENG and PENGASSAN have labeled these wages among the lowest in Nigeria’s oil and gas industry, where peers at smaller firms command over ₦2 million for comparable positions.

Elusive001:
The engineer claimed that expatriate workers, some with little experience, were treated better than Nigerian staff. “We are the ones who train them when they arrive, but after a while they are made our bosses,” he said.



Where are those normal defenders of evil?

SmartyPants:
Is this coherent?



If a person earning 500k is taxed up to 164k, then how can a person earning 400k be taxed over 200k? The math is not mathing.

Don't mind the Ignoramuses.. their crowd mentality won't allow them use their God-given brain to think.

Indians are gradually taking over the petrochemical sector in Nigeria and are kicking Nigerians out of the sector.. it started with sale of Eleme Petrochemicals to Indorama, since then, they have been taking miles. I won't be surprised if it is later revealed that Indians have high stake in the Dangote refinery.
The implication of the inaction of the Nigerian Government is that foreigners will be ones making critical decisions on Nigeria's key economic sector (what will never happen in India or China).
Nigerian companies that rely on raw materials sourced from petrochemicals will now be at the mercy of Indians before they can get locally sourced petrochemical raw materials in Nigeria. Just imagine the disgrace..

It's a pity we have people withouth knowledge at the helm of affairs.

franugo:
I find it difficult to believe that dangote pays an expatriate $26k a month

Chinese are now in charge of granite. We buy from them.

Exploiting the Nigerian Engineer bah?
