Dangote Refinery Sacks All Nigerian Workers 24 Hours After Joining PENGASSAN

In a shocking turn of events, the Dangote Refinery has reportedly dismissed all its Nigerian workers barely 24 hours after they joined the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN).


  • Reports indicate that Nigerian employees were abruptly laid off following their decision to affiliate with the oil and gas union.
  • The refinery management has not issued an official statement on the development.
  • Workers say the mass sack came as retaliation against their move to secure union representation.

  • Workers’ Rights: Alleged victimization of employees for unionizing.
  • Labour Relations: The refinery could face backlash from organized labour groups across Nigeria.
  • Economic Impact: With Dangote Refinery being the country’s flagship oil project, internal instability could affect fuel supply timelines.

  • Labour unions, including PENGASSAN and the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), are expected to weigh in.
  • Public outrage is already brewing, with many Nigerians condemning the alleged mass sack.
  • Analysts warn this could trigger industrial actions if not resolved swiftly.

  • Will PENGASSAN take up the case officially?
  • How will the Federal Government respond, given the refinery’s national importance?
  • Could this incident stall the much-anticipated full rollout of refinery operations?
