DAILY UPDATE ON JOHESU STRIKE ..(Updated Jan 25th) Culled From Medicalworld

speckless:
When you start praying and fasting during an industrial dispute it shows leaders are getting to the peak of cluelessness and desperation. JOHESU call it off, its getting soapy. ( O ti n di Osee o)

i guess the NMA's strike was also 'soapy'; and they won.
it's good to be 'soapy 'and record victory at the end.

well u might be right but remember, if the son was flogged with a cane on an issue, the servant most likely will be flogged with a horsewhip or worsestill a cutlass. In the case of NMA the president was already begging at this stage remember?

What strategy? There were only 2factions during the NMA strike, the compromised Obembe and others. I hope the spiritual strategy works. Fingers crossed!

Pls read the first post again for the days update. With the civil disturbance and the amount of pleading going on, johesu is likely worried about the potential onset of no work no pay policy 3months after leaving your work post. I hope the government listens- but not until after valentine!
