PENGASSAN/NUPENG Strike Enters its second day

Strike by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) and Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) entered its second day today.

The long queues seen yesterday have continued with some filling stations closed for business. The Immediate Past National Industrial Officer of PENGASSAN, Chika Onuegbu has frowned at filling stations in Port Harcourt and neighbouring states that have resorted to hoarding petroleum products following the strike, adding that it was unnecessary.

Chika Onuegbu also dismissed reports that the strike is politically motivated.

Meanwhile, the Immediate Past National Industrial Officer of PENGASSAN maintained that PENGASSAN is still loyal to loyalty to Nigerians.
