NUPENG and PENGASSAN Slam Government Plan to Offload NNPC Joint‑Venture Stakes

Nigeria’s two biggest oil unions, NUPENG and PENGASSAN, have publicly rejected the federal government’s proposal to slash its stake in joint‑venture assets managed by NNPC Ltd. They warn the move could cut revenue, jeopardise jobs and destabilise the entire oil sector. The unions say the plan, aimed at raising cash, risks mortgaging the country’s future.
