November 23, 2015

Close to two thousand Nigerians are employed for many years (2 to 15 years) as backup/ supporting Staff in Warri Refining and Petrochemicals Company (WRPC), Ekpan-Warri, Delta State in Nigeria. WRPC is a subsidiary of NNPC whose its GMD recently screened successfully for Ministerial position-Dr Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu.
For the past one year now, the so called back up staff have been owed their meagre salary if not recently when the backup staff protested on 4th November, 2015 by locking the main gate against into refinery against the management who care less about their way of livelihood. The development over this has yielded two things notably which not only includes partial payment and reduction in salaries of the month they have earlier worked but also threatening to lay-off the entire backup staff any moment from now without terminal benefit after their commitments to their motherland inhaling hazardous chemicals and other health risk.
To start with, the backup staff are denied of visiting the WRPC industrial clinic whereas the NNPC staff are allowed to do so even with referral to NNPC Medical complex which when they The back up staff do the work while the NNPC Staff take the glory!. In a nutshel, the conditions are so worst that coul ever imagine although the people who could save the situation are been denied to know and this explains why Dr. Ibe Kachikwu said it was a news to him that NNPC is owing back up staff when been asked during the ministerial screening. Again, President Muhamaddu Buhari could have bailed the situation out but they (present WRPC Management) have been hiding the deplorable work situation for their selfish aims.
Hence, we are crying out to the Nigerians Governments (The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, The Senate, the House of Representatives and Chief Judge of the Federation and the Media) to help us because the management of WRPC has made the future jeopardized for us while we are delivering the services to the Nation.
