The Petroleum Tanker Drivers have called off their planned strike action.
A statement by Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division (NNPC), Garba Deen Muhammad said the development came after intensive engagement involving the leadership of the PTD, NNPC officials and other government agencies.
“NNPC wishes to appreciate the maturity and patriotism of the leadership of the PTD; and to also reiterate its resolve to actively participate in finding a quick and effective solution to the concerns raised by the PTD”.
It would be recalled that the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) threatened that Petroleum Tanker Drivers (PTD) will commence strike on Monday over what they described as deplorable state of the nation’s highways and other issues.
