WARRI—KOMBOT Egbema and Gbaramatu Graduate Association in Warri North/Warri South West Local Government Areas  of Delta State, has berated Chevron Nigeria Limited for allegedly failing to convert 151 trainees of VTPS 5 and 6 to permanent staff five years after they completed the training programme.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremony of the new executives of the body in Warri South, immediate past president of the body, Mr Moses Yabrade said the trainees  were going through untold hardship due to  alleged failure of the oil company to covert  them as permanent staff, adding that the action of the oil firm was causing tension in Egbema and Gbaramatu communities.
