17 June 2014, Abuja – The National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas, NUPENG, has suspended its planned strike scheduled to commence Wednesday, to allow room for dialogue and negotiation over the crises rocking the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN.
The union however clarified that the suspended strike does not mean it has decided to completely shelve the action which is as a result of the failure of IPMAN to implement the 2009 agreement due to the ongoing leadership tussle.
Briefing newsmen in Abuja Tuesday, the National President of NUPENG, Comrade Igwe Achese reiterated the commitment of the union to protect the interest of its members who constitute the majority of the work force in IPMAN.
