This is just the beginning. After 2 years of the dullard tenure in power ,Nigerians will wish they never even knew the name buhari not to talk of voting him into power. The economy is in shambles and job losses keep mounting each passing day yet ppl are still pretending and acting as if everything is normal

I am getting tired of being a APC defender.

OK....in simples english.

Visafone was a CDMA provider. Many CDMA providers came on stream ten years ago....and one by one they went out of business due to

1.Bad business practices.Like not expanding into rural areas....while GSM companies were already moving there.

2.Government policy of regionalisng their services....while allowing GSM companies to run national. By the time govt allowed the CDMA providers to run national in 2007....it was too late.

3.MTN has bought visafone since April 2015.What has happened are the job losses that result from a typical merger. And yes...it happened before Bubu took over.

Better stop blaming Bubu for everything.

Assignment.....Read this article.

this has nothing to do with Buhari or APC. D economy is in trouble & d man has promised he is gonna fix it, thou i'm not a personal fan of the "Supreme Leader" lets give him a chance & lets pray for him to succeed. Nigeria belongs to us.

Last year was very bad for businesses. A lot of SMEs closed down while many others faced lay-offs. I feel bad for the Nigerian youth, these are bad times for people in the job market.
Entrepreneurship all the way, I've already started making headway. If I can do it, anyone can.

Visafone was sure to go down, sorry to say this but I expect people to have ported from that company but they can't, considering the fact there is no where to port to... Be like say people go fat for Naija this year dis to excess sleep and joblessness...




Dirk bukkenberg high top shoes available...
them sef why are they all incompetent, no value added, only interested in the salary.
Re: Thousands Of Workers Lose Jobs As Visafone Winds Down Operations by ifeanyi83(m): 3:26am On Jan 06, 2016
And just like their other CDMA counterparts, Visafone, which I thought was the strongest of them finally caves in. CDMA networks appeared to be the real deal back then especially with cheap international calling rates. Multilinks, Starcomms, Reltel....
