Anti-labour practices: We won’t be silenced, NUPENG declares

The statement “Anti‑labour practices: We won’t be silenced, NUPENG declares” refers to a public protest by the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG). The union issued a press release condemning recent anti‑labour actions—such as intimidation of union leaders, unlawful dismissals, and restrictions on collective bargaining—by oil‑industry employers and government agencies. NUPENG vowed to continue defending workers’ rights, demanding the reversal of those practices, and threatening industrial action if their demands are not met. The declaration underscores the union’s commitment to free expression, safe working conditions, and the right to organize within Nigeria’s petroleum sector. Views Nigeria
