NLC demands urgent passage of PIB

NIGERIA Labour Congress, NLC, has declared as unacceptable the fact that the Nigeria’s petroleum sector is still regulated by the old Petroleum Act of 1969, calling on the National Assembly to immediately pass the protracted Petroleum Industry Bill, PIB.

NLC in a New Year message to Nigerian workers by its President and Acting General Secretary, Abdulwaheed Omar and Chris Uyot, said the body threw its weight behind the demand by the oil sector unions (Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers, NUPENG and its Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, PENGASSAN) for the urgent passing of the Bill  this year.
