['The Citizen']
TheCitizen – It's all about you
A statement issued in the early hours of Wednesday by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Mohammed Maigari Dingyadi, disclosed that the matter was resolved following lengthy discussions.
“No worker will be victimised arising from their role in the impasse between Dangote and PENGASSAN.
Monday’s earlier meeting between PENGASSAN and the Dangote Refinery management over the industrial dispute had ended in a deadlock.
The session, which began around 4 pm, stretched into the early hours of Tuesday without resolution.
The rift had stemmed from allegations by PENGASSAN that the Dangote Refinery engaged in mass transfers and sackings of union members, while also replacing some Nigerians with foreign nationals, claims the company consistently denied.
