The NHS in the UK has 1.4m employees.

To my opinion this statistics is note correct, most of all this companies listed here are not in Nigeria, how about coka cola that has plants all over the world. will they be able to count people working in coka cola in Nigeria

These companies are big. I,m surprised that Walmart is richer than the oil and gas companies on the list.

But the companies with the fewest employees pay best.

The largest company by revenue Goldman sachs (the bank that rules the world). Its revenue exceeds $960 billion dollars . That bank can buy countries if it wants. Sometimes i wonder when these western companies started and advanced to such levels, while we are here still struggling with the basics, how did they get such marvelous ideas to start those giants at the time when we were still in bushes without cloths. Mehn we have a looooooooonnnnng way to go

Agimor: 1. Wal-Mart Stores Inc.
> Total employees:2,200,000
> Revenue:$476.3 billion
> Country:United States
> Industry:Retail
Wal-Mart Stores is the world’s largest employer. The retailer operates Walmart, Sam’s Club, and other chains, which together employ some 2.2 million people globally. Of that total, roughly 1.4 million were employed in the U.S. alone at the end of the company’s fiscal year. This accounted for notable share of the U.S. labor force, which totaled slightly more than 156 million people as of July. Outside the U.S., the retailer employs more than 200,000 people in Mexico, and nearly 170,000 at its Asda chain in the U.K. However, the company has also inspired fierce debate over its labor practices, with some claiming that Wal-Mart’s pay is too low to constitute a livable wage, and others arguing that Wal-Mart provides jobs to low-skilled workers with few options.

Tazmode: To get employment 4 dis kind companies, ur c.v go thick like handbook.

Lol. Wal-Mart doesn't require a "thick" CV for the common jobs where most of these employees lie.

English language is our problem in naija...op said biggest employer....not best paid or highest paid...that means they employ alot of individuals, that's why china coy tops most of the list.

Buhari wants to run
Tambuwa is intrested in running
Okorocha wants to run
Ameachi is running
Jonathan will run
Atiku said he wants to run



So I dont see any harm there, if any Nairaland decide to run (speed). We are all Nigerians.
