My friend works in a telecoms servicing company. His boss, an expatriate and supposed professional messed up a job worth millions of naira.
The company lost the client that awarded d contract and he was sacked immediately.

Now my question is, do we have Nigerians who are better than these people? And why do companies prefer them to us. Most times their salaries are way over ours and companies are responsible for other costs they wouldn't even bear for Nigerians.

What's your take

Nigerians are trained to work for Expatraits. The university curriculum has been left un reviewd for years and you think you can match up with people who had good training using state-of-the-art equipment. In technology we are way behind.

Not all Nigerians are incompetent, likewise, not all expatriates are competent. However, in the vast majority of cases expats from places such as the UK and the USA are on another level when it comes to professionalism and work ethic. It's even the little things, such as being punctual. I know from experience that the work culture in the UK in professional spheres is of a much better standard in big corporations. Unless you have schooled or worked in the UK as a professional you will not be able to understand my point. So,I wont take up any more of your time. It's probably best to agree to disagree in advance.
