The Association urged all its members stationed in various field locations including all control room operations, panel operations, and outfield personnel to withdraw their services beginning at 6:00 a.m. on Sunday, September 28, 2025, and start a round-the-clock prayer vigil.

”All IOC branches must ramp down gas production and supply to Dangote Refinery and petrochemicals.

“The prayer point should include a call to God Almighty to give courage to those in authority to rein in Dangote and his co-travelers on the need to obey the laws of our country. No man is bigger than our country, An injury to one is an injury to all,” the statement said.
