Petrol price hike: 10-litres of fuel higher than our salaries – Filling station workers lament

DAILY POST

Petroleum Filling Station Workers in Nigeria have lamented that despite several Premium Motor Spirit (Petrol) price hikes, their salaries have remained stagnated and meager.

Ibrahim Zango, spokesperson for PSW disclosed this in a recent press conference in Kaduna State.

He noted that Petroleum Station Workers earn between N10,000 and N20,000 per month.

According to him, Petroleum Station Workers are treated like slaves despite their significant role in the Nation’s economy.

He called for recognition and organization under the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers.

“Despite our vital role in the economy, we are treated like slaves. Our salaries are meager, and we face dangers such as toxic environments and fire hazards without adequate healthcare,” he said.
