PENGASSAN Responds to Shettima, Defends Workers' Rights

The Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) responded to Vice President Kashim Shettima's criticism, stating that the nation is bigger than the presidency and Dangote. PENGASSAN's national chairman, Festus Osifo, emphasized that the law protects workers' right to strike and warned against any member being sacked for participating in industrial action.

Shettima had criticized the union's strikes, highlighting the importance of institutions like Dangote in Nigeria's economic development. Osifo reaffirmed PENGASSAN's commitment to protecting workers' rights and ensuring the nation's interests are upheld.
