The newly elected President of Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG), Prince Williams Apkoreha, has declared that the issue of job security of the union’s members will be his top priority. Though Apkoreha said the challenges before his new executive were enormous, he promised to use all resources at his disposal to protect the job of his members. The NUPENG president, however, added that they would not allow the Petroleum Industry Governance Bill, to impact negatively on the job security of their members. “One of these challenges is the Petroleum Industry Governance Bill that has just been harmonised and passed by the National Assembly. Fifteen other members of NUPENG National Administrative Council were also elected unopposed.
