Chevron Nigeria retirees staged a protest at the company’s headquarters in Lagos on Tuesday, voicing their grievances over various issues.
Carrying placards with messages such as “We say no to dissolution of CNCPFA,” “Chevron, stop discrimination against retirees,” and “Respect Nigerian laws above your policies,” the protesters expressed dissatisfaction with delayed pension payments and other concerns.
The retirees criticized the outsourcing of their pension fund and demanded clarity on whether Chevron had divested from Nigeria. They accused the company of breaking Nigerian laws, showing disregard for pensioners, failing to engage with the National Pension Commission (PenCom), and freezing pensions for decades.
Their calls for fairness highlighted concerns about their treatment compared to retirees from other international oil companies (IOCs).
