NUPENG Threatens Strike If Petroleum Industrial Bill Isn't Passed Into Law by bugs1(op): 7:39am On Apr 14, 2015

National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG) has threatened to withdraw its services across the country if the current National Assembly (NASS) fails to pass the Petroleum Industrial Bill (PIB) into law.

The president of the union, Comrade Igwe Achese, disclosed this to newsmen in Lagos during a briefing tagged ‘What is the future of oil and gas sector?

According to him, we will not use the word ‘strike’ to scare Nigerians but we will withdraw our services across the country if the 7th Assembly fails to pass the PIB that has become a recurrent decimal.

Igwe noted that the bill must be passed by the NASS and dispatched in order to ensure transparency in the oil and gas business.

“We are not joking with this issue and I hope strongly that the present assembly will do the needful,” he said.

NUPENG also lamented the vandalism of pipelines in the country and called on government to provide adequate protection for them.

These are the kind of people our clueless, certificateless and senile president-elect will be governing. Will he be able to address their needs with wisdom and intelligence? I very much doubt it.

Now that "progressives" are a majority in the national assembly, let's see if they'll pass the PIB.

Now the true test of governance begins...... its beyond paitin kwaraption. It includes managing the hydra headed structure of currently structured Nigeria.

The strikes will come and it would be nice to see how our ex general president would democratically influence the unending grievances of these groups.

Would he be patient enough or would attempt to shut the groups up?.... time shall tell.

I thought that the APC controls the house of reps. I expect the APC controlled lower house to pass this bill, while the PDP controlled senate sits on it.

Why is APC against this bill?

They were busy with more important bills like the Anti-gay bill which has been the Nigeria's major problem in fighting corruption.
