The Trade Union Congress of Nigeria says the shortage of petroleum products being experienced around Rivers State has nothing to do with the two main labour unions in the oil and gas sector. State Chairman of the TUC, CHIKA ONUEGBU said the fuel shortage is mainly due to protest by owners of tank farms and depots over the delay in their subsidy claims.

The Trade Union Congress of Nigeria says the shortage of petroleum products being experienced around Rivers State has nothing to do with the two main labour unions in the oil and gas sector. State Chairman of the TUC, CHIKA ONUEGBU said the fuel shortage is mainly due to protest by owners of tank farms and depots over the delay in their subsidy claims. ONUEGBU said the tank farm and deport owners who supply products to majority of the filling stations in Port Harcourt load one or two trucks per day and stop because of their grievance.
The State TUC Chairman said the truth is that petroleum products are available but the tank farm and depot owners decided to slow down the distribution process to draw public attention to their situation. TUC Rivers State however appealed to them to the tank farm and depot to reconsider their position in the interest of the ordinary people.
