Unions Declare Royal Dutch/Shell an 'Enemy of the People,' Say Strike Will Target Oil Exports
LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) -- Unions declared the top oil multinational here, Royal Dutch/Shell,"an enemy of the Nigerian people" on Sunday and called a Nov. 16 nationwide strike that they said would target oil exports in Africa's oil giant.
The threats in the world's No. 7 oil exporter -- the source of one-fifth of U.S. oil imports -- appeared likely to send new shocks through the global oil price market.
Unions called the Nov. 16 strike after giving President Olusegun Obasanjo until Sunday to reverse September's 23 percent increase in fuel prices in Nigeria.
Union leaders singled out Royal Dutch/Shell Group, Nigeria's largest petroleum producer, which they accused of planning to try to block the strike in the courts.
"We have resolved to declare Shell an enemy of the Nigerian people," Adams Oshiomhole, leader of the main Nigeria Labor Congress, told reporters.
"Shell will be treated as an enemy. We have the capacity to engage them," Oshiomhole said.
Shell officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
