dangermouse: Well done sir...I look forward to seeing many more stories like yours in our country. If we can have just 1000-5000 of such people like you in our country, Nigeria will never remain the same again but will progress astronomically, bad leaders or not! Keep it up! I'm encouraged that there are quite a number of us! 2 Likes |

Yes I have. I think few days ago I thought of sharing a similar topic, well now that you did. I will just share my own story here. Many years ago, I was working in a pure water factory owned by a member of the Edo state house of assembly. My job description was to pack pure water bags in the truck and sometimes act as a motor boy. The motor boy part was my favorite because it meant extra cash and the company truck driver happened to be my friend from a filling station I used to work before. On the day I was fired lol from pure water company , my phone rang and it was the company truck driver ("my friend" ), he called to tell me, to tell the manager the truck had broken down (engine issues), so I passed the message to the manager and the manager was furious lamenting how the driver is always full of bad luck and excuses. When the driver was asked his location, he said outskirts of EDo... This made the manager and also the supervisor even angrier. They said it wasn't water he had gone to sell otherwise what is he doing near Delta State. Now this driver friend does go very far, I mean very far into villages and communities just to sell water and meet the days target so for me I wasn't surprised his location. I was just afraid they would use his location as an excuse to blackmail him for using the truck for other outside company activities hence the truck repairs maybe on him. I called my friend back in secret and told him the manager was claiming he didn't go to sell water, that he went on some other activities and he should be careful the way he talks with them. Long story cut short... They tow the truck back to the factory after many hours and I noticed the stare both the manager and the supervisor gave me. Few minutes later the supervisor returned from his office and handed me an envelope. It was a sack letter. In his words he said "I couldn't keep company secrets and I am a threat to the existence of the business ". At that moment it dawned on me the driver, my supposed friend had betrayed me or angrily spoke of what he had heard and went as far as giving details of who told him what he had heard. That was it... Job lost. 9 Likes |

Psoul: your scenario is false because the bank would not want to do anything that works against her interest of which one of them is to retain as much deposit as possible. cases like these is usually the case of lone wolf e.g 1 An unscrupulous bank official conniving with fraudsters. 2 A hacker that has access to sensitive details of customers. usually when perpetuators are caught, the bank wastes no time in dealing with them. 1 Like |

paulGrundy: I understand, but at that point the deed has already been done anyways I don't support crime, but it's part of human nature to cheat, and it is not going anywhere There nothing like evil or good, it depends on your perspective something that is truly evil might geniunely be good for another person All in all I don't support crime but I will do things with logic, the great guys will all look up to today are the shadiest people to deal with and most of them are tough and dont give a damn about other people, they are selfish and don't mind cheating to get advantage over the competition, yet we hail they because they drive value to other people bad and evil to there competition but good to there shareholders, All in all theworld is full of evil or whatever u choose to call it My write may not correlate with ur argument but I hope u understand thing from my point of view |

Dotng: my dear he owe them an explanation to either accept to be part of it or not,mots a meeting called by the head of the school.of you are not going to be a part of it, you signal it there and let them know your stand.keeping mute signals your agreement with them. so on the d day you reneged on the agreement of yes which you agreed earlier in the staff room by keeping mute...well the end justifies it all. |

olumide4christ: Your definition of a person of integrity is right but incomplete. You should include the phrase 'even though he knows he wouldn't get caught'. I can give several examples of people who claim to be saints and Angel's, but when opportunity came and the chances of 'nobody will know' came. My God!!! They did what a known devil wouldn't even do. I'm not a supporter of illegality. May God help us |

valentineuwakwe: If they chose to propose deals that they know will not seat well with him, then they had it coming. If they feel want answers to their questions then they should chose their questions well and who they ask. It is the sense of being entitled to an answer because of their exalted position that gave them a false sense of expectation. He does not owe them anything other than what was expected by both parties when he began working with them. |

am not sure it is. just as exam malpractice is prevalent in secondary schools. so it is also prevalent in banking. many of my colleagues do it. its like an open secret. management implicitly indirectly encourages it because it helps them meet their liquidity drive. one of my line managers used to say this: bring any type of money to the bank from any source, we will accept it, but do it smartly and don't allow the regulatory authorities catch you, or we deny you! To let you know how prevalent it is in banking, a colleague of mine was implicated in a fraud scheme busted by the FBI all the way from USA that made headlines last year. her crime was that she did not do due diligence when opening the fraudsters account. the bank hired the best lawyers and fought her case, indirectly protecting the interest of the fraudster. after the whole ordeal she was promoted instantly to a branch manager.

Mine happened last year here in South Africa, Was teaching Life Sciences(Biology) and Geography at a private school in a town in the province of KwaZulu-Natal. The grade 12(final year) students are unserious and you would know they were purposefully promoted.. Anyways I did the first term, 2nd term and third term.. Meanwhile 3rd term exams used to be paper1 and paper 2... These kids failed sha.. And theres always moderation at the beginning of every term.. So I resumed 4th term in early October and started preparing for moderation.. Meanwhile the director who owns the school never called me to add marks for the learners before going for moderation by the department of education... Well if he did, I would simply hand over everything to him to do it himself.. The annoying things is.. This man is a pastor. Anyways I did take that poor result for moderation and this man was pissed.. He said I want to spoil his business.... Anyways story cut short he terminated my contract at the end of October.. Well I hear its a norm.. No wonder South Africa produces half baked/half qualified graduates even in their tertiary institutions.. Anyways still looking out for a job.. I don't feel bad tho.. Cos i upheld the belief that I had.... I hate nonsense.. If u want to fail.. Fail judiciously. 4 Likes |
