The Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation Pipeline Surveillance Contractors on Monday protested non-payment of 10 months salary arrears by UTM Offshore Limited, NNPC contractor in Enugu.

The Security Guards Contractors that monitors from Ishiagu Ebonyi State to Emene, Enugu State Petroleum pipeline, who carried placards with various inscriptions, chanted, “NNPC pay us our 10 months salary arrears; our children are dying of hunger while we are working day and night,” among others as they matched to the Emene NNPC Depot.

Some of the inscriptions in their placards read, “NNPC/NPSC pay your contractors”, and “We are losing our workers to hunger because of the non-payment of salary”.
