Wow...congratulations to him

Why are they giving out our jobs to foreigners?

To the poster directly above me...

The last time that post was given to a Nigerian he tried to drag the company into partisan politics during the "Obasanjo Third term agenda" for his own selfish gains

To a white man?

Breweries is really generating lots of cash..... People dey consume alcohol gan ooo

....

Are they trying to tell us we are not capable? Must they give it to the white? See amazing photos of Runtowns's baby mama's baby shower

So that the indigenes will not run it down the way they ran down Nigerian Airways and other sun indigenous companies.

I have never known Nigerian Breweries to be without a foreign head

Why must Nigeria breweries act in this manner? Why not a Nigerian man? See photos of Butt lift surgery of Gemma Lucy

You didn't know that 'Nigerian' Breweries is 37% owned by Heineken? The Nigerians involved just collect their dividends.

...

Expatriate taking jobs in Nigeria since 1914

Same government preaching Nigerian (internal) content development...hope against hope, that's the only sane thread I hang on to regarding our country's situation.

This is why they didnt give it to a Nigerian

we where built to worship the white man, even the image of Jesus is white, heaven is white and Satan is black.

Even in Chess, the white must start the move



sadly, we are relaxed about it.
by law, 70% of workers in every company on Nigerian land should be Nigerians,

Because you guys are not competent.

better in the hands of foreigners..

i believe if one of ours has the wealth of knowledge this man has then they would give the position to him. itd not easy being in different developing countries and successfully managing them properly.

the board also comprises of Nigerians who deem him fit until they find a substantive m.d.

I have never known Nigerian Breweries to be without a foreign head

And every single qualified Nigerian will run these companies down? As all companies led by Nigerians have been run down before based on your logic

Nice one.. theree will be a. Change in the system..

You will never be competent

It used to be under Nigerians until 2006 when the last Nigerian MD - Festus Odimegwu (the guy that GEJ later sacked at the population commission) dragged the company into political activities under the so-called Corporate Nigeria.

He was stylishly asked to go on one irrelevant course like that and the whites reclaimed their company.

BEER!>..... destroying people since 1834

I dey come

Such a heavyweight company is too big for a Nigerian cos most of our indigenious MD/CEOs are pawns in the hands of politicians.

thesicilian:

Because the last Nigerian that ran NBPlc did such a "good job" that profits declined

So much that Heineken N.V(Majority shareholders)have more or less officially banned Nigerians from MD and CFO role

Also, both past and incoming MD are Heineken NV staff simply on transfer within the global business.

On a personal note he could "afford" to run for Governor in his state after NBPlc

Majority always carry the Vote simple. It is what has happened to majority.
