Total Exploration: Management, workers’ feud deepens
The job loss scare rocking Total Exploration and Production (E&P) Nigeria Limited at the weekend degenerated, worsening the disagreement between the oil major and its workers’ union.
New Telegraph gathered at the weekend that the workers, under the auspices of Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN), who shut down the company’s operations at all its locations, were on Sunday emboldened by a sister union – the Nigerian Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG) workers.
Chairman, Lagos branch of NUPENG, Alhaji Tokunbo Korodo, who disclosed this to New Telegraph at the weekend, maintained that his group was awaiting call for solidarity from PENGASSAN to make the industrial action total.
