NNPC Warns of Energy Crisis Amid Dangote-PENGASSAN Dispute
The ongoing industrial dispute between the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) and Dangote Refinery has raised concerns about national energy security in Nigeria. The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) warned of significant disruptions in oil, gas, and power supply due to the strike, leading to substantial losses in production.
