Nigeria may suffer the scarcity of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), popularly called petrol, in coming days as oil workers have been ordered to embark on an indefinite nationwide strike.

Confiance News gathered from a statement issued by the oil union on Twitter.

The strike the statement disclosed, was as result of the breach in the agreement of Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System  (IPPIS) and the redundancy in Baker Hughes- an energy technology company with operations in 120 countries.

The oil union, however, ordered the workers to vacate their duty posts.

More to come..
