Members of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria in Addax Petroleum have elected Comrade Chris Ogiemwonyi Jnr. as Chairman for the Second term of three years.
Ogiemwonyi Jnr., who emerged unopposed, was unanimously chosen as the Chairman through consensus by delegates during the Branch 5th Triennial Delegates Conference in Lagos on Friday.
Other members of the Branch Executive Council include: Comrade Simon Ononekwu, Comrade Gerald Agwu, Comrade Temidoyo Diabo and Comrade Ken Olubo, who emerged Vice Chairman, Secretary, Assistant Secretary and Treasurer, respectively.
Comrade Arodiwe Kenechukwu, Financial Secretary; Comrade Abiola Oyebola, Industrial Relations Officer; Comrade Assumpta Uzoma, Branch Women-in-PENGASSAN; and Comrade Bode Odedeyi, Internal Auditor, were also elected during the Branch Delegates Conference.
In his acceptance speech, Comrade Ogiemwonyi Jnr. urged the new Branch Executive Council to be prepared for an era of discipline and commitment to serve the branch, adding that they should be prepared to work as a team in confronting challenges ahead.
The PENGASSAN President, Comrade Francis Olabode Johnson, called for collaborations between the management and the branch executive for attainment of organisational growth and industrial peace.
Johnson said: “Hence we require openness and transparency to build trust and confidence in one another. Management should endeavour to take the union along in making business decisions that will impact on the employees’ welfare. As unionists, the Branch Executive Council should also sacrifice their individual interest for the corporate interest.
“For the incoming leaders, the work may appear tedious and the road ahead may appear long and hard but I am sure you are amply endowed with all the key ingredients of success; and we pray that the Almighty Lord will grant them the zeal to serve for the betterment of the branch, our members, the company, the industry and the Association as a whole.”
