The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has reportedly ceased paying the monthly salaries of engineers who were sacked in September following a heated industrial dispute with the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN).
The move comes as the affected workers rejected redeployment offers to other Dangote-owned projects located in various parts of the country, some of which they have described as “security hot zones.”
PENGASSAN, in a bid to avert a renewed nationwide industrial action, confirmed it is currently engaging the Dangote Group to resolve the protracted matter amicably.
