dc.description.abstract Suddenly a premier national industrial labour union cut into a course of political self-destruction. Brethren and comrades alike went for each others' throat across a well-defined ideological battleline. Intra-Unian Crisis is an honest and moving account of how the National Union of Petroleum & Natural Gas Workers, one of the 42 affiliate national industrial unions of the NLC, was engulfed in intra-union squabble, the magnitude of which remains unprecedented in the history of labour movements the world over. It was a crisis in which over N.7m oil workers'check-off-dues were wasted, and defied all solutions,including intervention by judiciary, the police,personalities and institutions, climaxing in a threat to undermine the economic security of the Nigerian nation.Only the timely intervention of the President and Commander-In-Chief of t :Armed Forces, General Ibrahim Babangida, saved the day. A well researched, honest account of the four-year fratricide in NUPENG, THE NUPENG EXPERIENCE is rich and colourful in power-play and intrigues, well strewn together by deep insiders. A thought-provoking epoch, it could transform the history, principles and practices of labour relations and politics in Nigeria and elsewhere. en_US
