Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) has called off its three-day
nationwide warning strike which kicked off Wednesday January 11th. President

stakeholders meeting with the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige in
Abuja.
“I am happy to say that
each and every issue raised has been addressed and I hope that all parties will
be committed to implement the agreement. We have therefore decided to call off
the three- day warming strike‘’Achese said .
NUPENG began the warning
strike to draw attention to range of issues such as the indiscriminate sack of
workers without benefits by some International Oil Companies IOC and refusal to
allow their workers to join unions.
