Members of the independent marketers’ branch of the Nigerian Union of Petroleum Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) rose from their national executive council meeting in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, at the weekend with a declaration that strike option might become inevitable in view of the leadership crisis rocking Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN).
Not only that, they also gave the committee reviewing the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) to, unfailingly at tomorrow (Tuesday) meeting, agree to resolve the IPMAN’s impasse and implement improved salary structures among other better welfare packages signed with the branch ten years ago or face “mother of all mothers” strike.
