Power Mech Staff Complain Of Being Forced To Work Despite Lockdown

Staff of Power Mech company working on the Dangote Refinery have complained to the Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Damodardas Modi of the actions of their employers. They claim that they are being made to work through the Coronavirus pandemic and even threatened with violence.

The workers in a video with their leader speaking said every other company is observing the lockdown as announced by the Federal Government of Nigeria but Power Mech has refused to obey the directive and the workers are being driven out of their rooms in what they described as slavery. They also say only Power Mech is forcing staff to work as other companies have asked their workers to stay away.

Lol, that refinery must be ready soonest ooh.

Crude oil prices are very down. Thus we can’t earn enough foreign currency to boost our reserve or to check our BOP. Taking the little ones we have out again for purchase of finished petroleum products is going to do more damage to us. As petroleum products happen to be the highest consumption of our foreign income.


When what we earn is far less than what we spend. Na serious gbege ooh.


So my dear Indians, that refinery must be ready ooh. Before it is too late.

You've called an Indian, your Master? Arrgh squared shocked And you repeat it without shame? Sorry but your parents have been derelict in instilling in you the Nigerian way of standing up for yourself and what it means to comport yourself as a Nigerian male. A typical Nigeria man bows to no one.

You can still learn:

Stand in front of the mirror, draw in air, and repeat, 'I am a Nigerian man, I am superior to all other men; I do not say, ‘I am as good as the next man but rather I say the next man is as good as me’. A Nigerian man never says, ‘someone beat me up; someone bossed me about, someone looked down on me; rather a Nigerian male is supposed to say, ‘I beat someone up, I looked down on someone, I bossed someone’. A Nigerian man is supposed to take the positive position in his baring and in his language not the negative or passive position.

Are they not being paid?
Re: Power Mech Staff At Dangote Refinery Complain Of Work Despite Lockdown by staneless(m): 6:28pm On May 02, 2020
If they are still being paid, I see no reason why they shouldn't work
Re: Power Mech Staff At Dangote Refinery Complain Of Work Despite Lockdown by Litmus: 6:33pm On May 02, 2020
Besides of all else, those jobs should go to Nigerians not Indians. This crux should concern Nigerians, not the Indians predicament.

If it was nigerians working there, they won't complain but continue to work like a loyal slave under tough conditions.

See comments, claiming tit for tats.

Most Nigerians are blinded to see the bigger picture, the only reason foreigners will oppress Nigerians is because most Nigerians have inferiority complex.they can't stand for their right.

Nigeria don't have inferiority complex except when they are broke we are Proudly Nigerian.
Do you know the Free Trade Zone is owned by the Chinese,they charge you in dollars per square meter and you still pay some percentage of your earning to their company.Moreover the land comes with a Federal Government C of O for 99 years.
What pained me was how a Chinese man turn to omo nile when i went to make enquiry before Alhaji took over.Since it is a F.G land and the President and C in C said he exempted people working in the upstream and downstream oil industry, why are they complaining.Biko they should fast track the process so we can compete favorably well while others battle from Convid financial exposures.

Powermech Indian workers in refinery are provided with all their needs and security against covik-19 .... They have no reason to worry or complain. Now they don't want to work because other Powermech Indian in Indian are not working....... That's wrong........ Nigerian are looking for opportunity to be inside the refinery complex working. If the Indian don't work they will be paid that's why they are protesting

They deserve more than this. They've done more than this to our brother's in their country and our country. They didn't punish them enough since they had more time to gather to make this video. They should keep them occupied.

Not the leaders even the citizens too worship anything foreign. Niggerians will kill their own to gain favour from oyinbo.

Don’t besmear Nigerians. In my experience, Nigerians are sole set of black people in the world that would consider other blacks first or respect fellow blacks. Everywhere else, from Ghana, Kenya, to Black Americans to South Africa, all blacks, except Nigerians ususlly, will put other races first. If a Nigerians ever put other races first, they would be just doing what other blacks do. But if ever you meet a black that puts other blacks first or shows respect to other blacks, chances are he would be Nigerian.

This is usually why whites and other races prefer blacks from Kenya, Ghana, South Africa and elsewhere than they do Nigerians.

You are judging them based on the way they are dressed in that video. Likely, they shot that video when not on duty.

We really cant say for sure what their positions are in that company. But I find it hard to believe a company in Nigeria would import labourers. In that case, it means the owner of the company feels like dashing money to his people or wasting money since he can source the same employees locally. He is turning his company into a charity for his people.


Sir, it's not about charity, that's what any sane entrepreneur with patent will do so as to keep trade secrets. I will tell you for free these people are even kept away from the public.

Bullshit. What is besmear there? I have worked in a few foreign organizations based in Niggeria and I know what I am saying. Ill give you specific happenings I have witnessed myself not general statements or make believe delusions. Niggerians are coons who will throw their own under the bus for a smile and a handshake from a whiteman or a foreigner.
I know what Im talking about because I have eyes and have seen some really disgusting stuff. Om sure you know it too but you want to believe what you want to, which is fine but dont come tell me what I know

Argue all you want, reality remains same. I’ve also a vast experience in work – all the way from the streets of Warri Nigeria to informal sectors in Europe, then private and public sectors, including local government, general and professional social care IT, Uk Parliament, Security industry, Logistics, Timber Trade, been published and own businesses. In all these experience, I’ve found that Nigerians generally are absolutely as I’ve described. Along the way, I seen Nigerians loose their jobs and had their businesses compromised by betrayals from black people from Africa and the Caribbean, many of which they were trying to help make it in the system just as Asians and Europeans help one another. The worst coons remain French West Africans, Ghanaians, African Americans and some East Africans. French West Africans and African Americans degrade black women.

Beliece whatvyou want. Im not a fan of sweeping statements or generalizations. On this forum alone I know how many threads are created for the worship of white people and to put down Nigerian women. That is one example. Im sure you still wabt to hold onto your beliefs which is fine by me. To each his own
