Before his expected blow to start, on Monday, the national secretariat of the Nigeria of oil and natural gas workers, Nupeng, said that it could not be returned to industrial action.
The Monday strike is as a sign of protest against the position of the management of the refinery of crane that does not allow the drivers of its natural compressed gas imported, on a methane, camsions to join any union.
In a joint declaration signed by Williams Akporeha and Afolabi, President and Secretary General, Sunday, Nupeng claimed that the branch of petrol drivers of his union would have abstained by the lifting of oil products from deposits at national level.
Nupeng also denied the declaration attributed to Enoch Kanawa, president of the Direct Trucking Company Driver Association (DTCDA) who said that Nupeng could not speak for the members of the oil tankers.
Kanawa had urged the Nigerians to ignore the planned industrial action.
Giving clarifications on birth and forces behind the DTCDA, Nupeng’s leadership said that the DTCDA led by Kanawa was a creation of managing the refinery of Dangote, who promised not to allow its recruited cameras that join Nupeng which is the only union recognized by Statuly, authorized to unions the petrol drivers. “
The declaration, which declared that Enoch Kanawa, is a lawyer, not a pilot of oil tankers, claimed that there was no division in the ranks of Nupeng or its PTD branch.
He also said that the Direct Trucking Company Limited was the recruitment company that was made up of Alhaji Sayyu aliu Dantata and Alhaji Aliko Dangote for the 10,000 CNG trucks that are importing.
Nupeng promised that he would not give up on what they called slaves conditions promoted by the refinery of dangote in the oil industry.
The declaration stated in part: “The attention of the leadership of the Union Nigeria di Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (Nupeng) was attracted by a report of news on Arise Television on Saturday evening 6 September 2025 and in some daily newspapers for the pack of not identified control services services not identified by people not identified by unidentified people by people not identified by people not identified by people not identified by people. People not identified by people not identified by people not identified by people not identified by a group of unidentified control goods.
“We ask our members, members of the public and independent objective media segments to ignore (DTCDA) and his statements.
“For the information of the public, the DTCDA is the association that the group of companies of the Dangote has formed for drivers to join compulsorily rather than allowing drivers to join Npeng, which is the only union recognized statutoryly authorized to unionize the oil drivers.
“The signatory of the DTCDA declaration, One Enoch Kanawa, is a lawyer, not a pilot of oil tankers.
“The lawyer Enoch Kanawa signed the declaration as President of DTCDA. The media should ask Kanawa when DTCDA has formed and when his election as president has occurred.
“It is a fact, the lawyer Kanawa was previously executive secretary of the National Association of Road Transport Owners (Narto) from 2001 to 2012, he left Narto to become legal councilor of Mrs Energy Limited by Alhaji Sayyu aliu Dantata and in 2019 he returned to contest the position of the president of the National Association of Road Transport Owners (narrow under the sponsorship of sponsorship of Alhaji Dantata and in 2019 he returned to the competition to contest the president of the National Association of Road Trans Transport Owners (Narto under the sponsorship of Alhau by Alh Yusuf Othman, current president of Narde.
“These facts must without doubt and beyond the controversy that the DTCDA is an association inspired by the Management and the news was created by the agents of Alhaji Sayyu aliu to create confusion and disinformation, there is no division in our ranks and files, our solidarity remains constant!
“Dtcda is the association formed by Alhaji Sayyu aliu Dantata, owner of the lady. The Limited High -Equport Company is the recruitment company that was made up of him and Alhaji Aliko Dangote for the 10,000 CNG trucks that are importing.
“Dtcda was originally designed to be Dangote Transport Company. Its registered office is 2, Tincan Island Port Road, Apapa, Lagos.
“DTCDA’s address is the same official address as Mrs Energy Limited.
“We want the general public to know that Alhaji Sayyu aliu Dantata is the founder and financier of the Direct Trucking Company Drivers Association (DTCDA) and is hosting this association in its official headquarters of the company.
“Schiavitù has ended centuries ago, but some unscrupulous capitalists are making efforts to bring it back. Any worker who cannot exercise the right of association is not better than a slave.
“Ordinary Nigerians should neither encourage or support slave working conditions.” [Daily Post excluding rejigged headline]
