Aliko Dangote Defraud Nigeria Graduates With Trucks Entrepreneurship Scheme. by slumbillionaire: 2:56am On Feb 07, 2017
He promised to provide job for 7000 unemployed graduates, who were interested in Truck Officer ownership /Entrepreneurship scheme, which advertised in almost Nigeria dailies in some years ago, Aliko Dangote Defraud Nigeria graduates with job scam and uses police to force 800 staff to collect sack letters. It however seems the rich can’t stay rich for too long in the midst of Nigeria’s economic recession as Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote reportedly sacked 800 graduate workers employed last year under Truck entrepreneurship scheme.
Affected Truck/Fleet officers were forced out of the company’s premises with the management using anti-riot policemen, forcing them to collect their termination letters and also handover company property in their possession. Mr. Aliko Dangote scam, is people and rubbish tomorrow's leaders of this wonderful nation, with job he promised to provide as stated in the advertisement placed in Nigeria dailies.
The management of Dangote Cement Transport breached the contract agreement between both parties. We the affected graduates is hereby calling on NANS, honourable Speaker in person of Senator Bukola Saraki and the entire house of assembly, all the human activitist, Barr. Femi Falana, et al, should come to our rescue. The management lies against, to us,during the course of our staying in the company we were under paid, with rigorous labour in that hazardous environment. We were humiliated and treated like dogs. “It was very unfortunate the way the management treated us like dogs or even worse than dogs. Many of us had resumed work on Monday, February 6, 2017, only to meet fully armed mobile policemen all over the place.
While still wondering what was going on, were told that we have been sacked and the policemen forced us to collect the sack letters and hand over company properties before they forced us to leave. We were indicted of stealing, and so many things, all these are flimsy excuses, Aliko Dangote should search for thieves and vandalizers among the senior staffs of Dantrans. Is because the so called Truck Officer/fleet officers, we're exposing there ridiculous, uncouth, malicious theft and diversion of company consignments, that prompt this hatred against the innocent fleet officers. Fleet officers have their proof to show case if the need be. Some of the fleet managers, Drivers supervisors, and chief drivers were not excluded. Though I am not saying there's no unscrupulous element among the fleet officers, one of which is Mr Isaac...... Who cooperated with driver to sell tyres, notwithstanding that one does not warrant sacking of others who are innocent. Aliko Dangote should set up a panel to review the issue that warrant massive sacking of the Truck /fleet officers and the Security personnel should not act on they said, if Aliko Dangote knows that he doesn't scammed Nigeria youth.

My brother, Dangote is losing a great part of his fortune courtesy of the recession brought upon us by Pa Buhari, so he cannot afford the luxury of thieving staffs who dont value their job... You truck drivers and operators working for big companies steal the company's property with impunity... A dumper operator at my work place was caught stealing diesel from the machine yesterday, his sack letter will be ready by 9am tueday because he values the 3k he gets from the sale of diesel more than his salary, so pls stop calling NANS into issues that u brought upon urselves.

800 sacked workers in any organisation forms a very powerful pressure group.
Organize yourselves and get legal representation.
It is very pathetic that suppposed graduates should be invading the cyberspace screaming that Femi Falana should come and help them over lost jobs.

Do you think that Falana Chambers is an NGO? Please unionize, gather money for legal representation.
Gather money for a seasoned public relations practitioner who will co ordinate a media blitz that will take this matter to the front burner of public consciousness.
What ever you do ,get of your butt and quit whinning. Learn to stand and fight like a man.

THE DANGOTE TRUCK OFFICERS SCHEME THAT NEVER WAS

It was massively advertised as Dangote Truck Entrepreneurial Scheme in virtually all the non-media outlets both in the conventional and virtual media. It was designed in such a way that qualified graduates will be empowered to manage trucks assigned to them and eventually become owners after the trucks must have attained a defined mileage. So many young graduates excitedly keyed into the initiative with accolades being showered on the drafters of the scheme. It was described as a panacea to youth unemployment and was hailed by all from all quarters.

After the buzz and eulogies from the government and the public had died down, the goal post was shifted by Dangote Group. The recruited graduates were told that it's no longer and entrepreneurial scheme. They were cajoled to believe that they have been offered provisional offer of employment in one of the most 'respected brand' in the country, Dangote Cement Transport. With confirmation promised after 6months. The employment letter looked so vague and empty. It was bereft of the usual details that accompanies any offer of employment letter. Out of mixed feelings, some graduates accepted the offer and some rejected it. Most accepted it because they saw it as an avenue to work in a brand that has house hold name with great potentials. They were termed as Truck Officers with the mandate of overseeing trucks assigned to them and superintending over the truck drivers. Sadly, their hopes and dream in identifying with this brand has been dashed and short lived.

The events that have played out thus far in 8 months seems like a calculated and well orchestrated deceit with a timeline. The drafters of the scheme played it out methodologically with a defined template.

For the past 8months that Truck Officers have worked at Dangote Cement Transport, Dangote has only paid each Truck Officer roughly about 436,000 naira in total as monthly salary. What a paltry sum to be paid to a working graduate for 8months. This total sum is about what some relatively unknown companies without the clout of Dangote Group pay employees in 1 or 2 months with lesser work load compared to what obtains at Dangote Cement Transport.

This is the height of corporate fraud and enslavement. No medical benefit paid, no overtime allowance paid, no special duty allowance paid, no leave grant paid, no defined bonus paid, no form of welfare package paid, no confirmation letter as promised. Truck Officers were left at the mercy of just a misery 58,000 naira stipend paid monthly. Yet, they looked beyond the monthly take home to discharge their duties to the best of their abilities without any inhibitions.

A truck loads about 45 tonnes of cement worth over 2million naira per trip and a Truck Officer is expected to monitor the loading, dispatch and delivery of the consignment to its final destination and it's return to base with the assistance of the Truck Driver. In spite of this round the chain effort, no Truck Officer has made close to half of that amount from the company for the tireless efforts put in daily both weekends and public holiday to maintain the trucks for this past 8 months. This is regardless of the hazardous and unpleasant working condition Truck Officers are daily exposed to with nearly non existing working tools.

Within the 8months period under review, Truck Officers were responsible for the resuscitation of over 100 moribund and non operational trucks which are up and running today. So many Dangote trucks involved in accidents or broken down on the high way and littered across different parts of the country thereby causing nuisance on the road were brought back to Obajana through the major efforts of Truck Officers. This feats were mainly achieved under very strenuous conditions and risk with no special incentive paid.

The appreciation a Truck Officer gets in return for dedicatedly serving the Dangote brand for 8 months is a letter of disengagement.

This is indeed a capitalist world with heartless and conscienceless management at the helms of affairs. The management style has been so porous with no clear cut policy direction. Truck Officers are daily bequeathed with flip flop policies. Yet, they improvised and applied ingenuity in getting the job done. More so, the threat of dismissal and query even with verbal insults from management at times became a recurring trend in the course of the work. Amidst all these unfavourable challenges, Truck Officers still made huge impact in the discharge of their duties.

The dude tried to steal and sell tyre at the scene of an accident which could be 100s of kilometres away from the company.
