NNPC staff end industrial action

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) staff union has suspended its industrial action, which shut down all facilities of the corporation on Wednesday.

Announcing the end of the strike action, NNPC, via its Twitter handle, said the unions are now ready to work in the restructuring of a new NNPC.

“Sequel to exhaustive deliberations between our group managing director and PENGASSAN and NUPENG, the corporate-wide strike has been suspended,” the NNPC said Thursday on its Twitter account.

“The Group Executive Councils of PENGASSAN and NUPENG have resolved to support the restructuring and change process towards a #NewNNPC.”
