The Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) has called on the Federal Government to embrace the use of dialogue to resolve the lingering impasse between the management of Capital Oil and Department of State Services (DSS), over the illegal sale of petroleum products stored in their tank farm by the NNPC.



The union stated that workers have the right to protest the non-payment of their salaries and allowances and that the Federal Government should secure the jobs of those working in the sector.

NUPENG, in a statement signed by its President, Igwe Achese, stressed that although it does not support the illegal diversion and sale of petroleum products, it was of the opinion that the Federal Government cannot sit still and watch workers lose their jobs.

The Union also made reference to the case of Seawolf Oil Services that was taken over by the Assets Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) in which it says workers are yet to be paid their backlog of salaries and entitlements for over five years.

*"NUPENG believes that the job creation mantra of the government should be allowed to play, rather than paving way for job losses as it is the case of the current closure of Capital Oil.”*

*It therefore called on the government to allow the 2,000 workers to resume work at the depot and load products so that their salaries can be paid, “instead of throwing them into the unemployment market for no fault of theirs”.*

Sharap! Can't you just comment without sentiment? BMC certified Zombie.. ....why not tell NNPC to return his money too. Same man that sold kerosene to poor Nigerians at a lower rate while other marketers refused to do same. Tomorrow you guys will still be the 1st to cry blood when investors start leaving the country.

It is an acceptable practice in business called 'net off' or 'lien' and the part of the Throughput Agreement published allows that. NNPC should come out to speak on this and clear everyone's doubt.

you cant place a lien without an agreement or a court order,you would have made a point if he got a court order to sell off NNPC products in his tanks to cover for his subsidies claim but he didnt my dear what he and Rabiu of MRS did is a scam done with the knowledge of some NNPC senior staff and thats not the 1st time, what they took was suppose to be Nigerian refined PMS reserve,which he was paid for.
