The meeting was held at the corporate headquarters of the NNPC in Abuja and commenced around 3 pm on Monday.

Achese had announced the strike in a signed communique on Friday in Lagos after its Central Working Committee meeting held at the union’s secretariat. The NUPENG president had stated that the strike would draw the attention of the Federal Government and other stakeholders to some unresolved issues bordering on the welfare of workers, such as bad roads, poor remuneration, insecurity and the alleged excesses of some security agencies.]]>
