I wonder how this could possibly be a win for many Nigerians. Is Seplat like the highest hirer of Nigerians such that many see this as some sort of a win, or is it just their usual tribalism extending to foreigners?

budaatum:


Yes he has choices! He can appeal to a higher court. It's not as if he is guilty already after all.

Parachoko:
He does not have a choice

Is visa have been revoked

oilykid:


Yoruba foolish goat who doesn't know that both the founders are both igbos.

Avuru is delta igbo from ndokwa while Orjiako is from Anambra.. if you are smart you would have researched about them in the first place instead coming online to spill thrash from your mouth.

Most of you yorubas are not meant to live among humans but animals caged in the zoo..

budaatum:


Your sentiment, I suppose. Unfortunately for you, he does not have to do what you want and can have his day in court against the ministry if he wants to.

OkoAmarashy:


Don't mind the idiot. He probably got agitated when I mentioned that Orjiakor was recruiting only Igbos into Seplat and forcing others out so as to cover his misdeeds.

Orjiakor wants to use tribalism to force a South South man out, meanwhile Seplat operates in the South South. Austin is showing him shege.

sisisioge:
Hmmmm.....how many people are on the board of directors? How many are Nigerians? How many tiers of management do they have? What is the percentage of the local content in it? I believe the allegation is true....he should return to his country biko.

Next should be those Chinese and Indian run factories in Lagos and Ogun state. I cringe at how they treat Nigerians.

budaatum:


Not your usual big brother thread, is it.

Oponu a lai lẹkọ n'lé.

OkoAmarashy:


The person they appointed is Igbo.

You are the child of a pauper and so, you have no access to even know wealthy Igbos. Umu nkita.

OkoAmarashy:


They wanted to pull a Mangal on Austin but they lack the depth.

There are some financial scandals in Seplat which if blown open, ABC Orjiakor would have been jailed in the UK and Nigeria. Some of of them might have been mentioned in Austin's book.
Orjiakor wants to run the company like a village trader's shop but Austin is the bone in his neck.

Remember that Seplat for the approval of Buhari for the acquisition of Mobil assets. However, the NNPC and regulators opposed the deal and that's how everything scattered.

Many sound professionals are leaving Seplat and moving on. Orjiakor wants Austin to move on but Austin has refused. Austin has another oil company but he's still showing Orjiakor that he's not SS guy.

One more thing. Many SE politicians are backing him while the SS political figures are backing Austin. If Obi had won this election, Orjiakor would have been home and dry.

The way things are going, Orjiakor will lose out in the powerplay.

MadarasBlade:


Where did you get this narrative of him employing only igbos? Wheres the article let me read. You guys are just too tribal

OkoAmarashy:


Serious matter that went up to the Presidency at a point. Buhari assented to an oil deal and later rescinded assent.
Same fight that scuttled Seplat Mobil oil deal.
Both founders were getting injunctions against each other at a point.

The genesis is that ABC Orjiakor an Igbo man is putting only Igbos in position in Seplat whether qualified or not and Austin Avuru the Confounder from the SS is resisting, insisting on balance.
Orjiakor is picking those loyal to him so that the heists committed while he as at the helm can be kept secret since they're loyal to him.

However, Austin Avuru is from the Niger Delta and has more contacts in the oil industry. He is showing Seplat Hell

budaatum:


After all, it's in your own house where you must be the bully?

OkoAmarashy:


You are not talking to your village people or your association of fellow drunkards.



You're a daft fool and a dreg of a society. You jumped up here to defend Orjiakor because he is from your tribe. God punish your entire lineage.

Look here, if you want links to investigations on Orjiakor, I will give you.
Both men are fighting for the control of Seplat and one pauper is here talking nonsense.
I should have you runt, bottom-feeding dreg of the society.

This is my last reply to you. You have a natural aversion to commonsense.

MightySparrow:



Nonsense allegation. Gone are the days an Igbo man would be vice chancellor in University of Ibadan or Lagos .

Your sentiment, I suppose. Unfortunately for you, he does not have to do what you want and can have his day in court against the ministry if he wants to.

Gone are those days when a Hausa man would be a vice chancellor in a University in the whole southeast.

tshtsh:

Forget the media. It was just a ploy to kick him out. They did same to their former CEO (Austin avuru) and kicked him out of the board. What was the racist atrocity that he committed ? I'm not holding brief for him but if its Seplat that I know its a dog-eat-dog company. Very political and an even unhealthy place for young professionals. Same Roger Brown that was the CFO for many years and prior to that a consultant who helped the company raise finance in its early days. The stakeholders want a corrupt CEO that will open the vault for them. That company is a mealticket to a number of NNPC workers, NPDC and NAPIMS workers. If you carry out a survey I wont be surprised if up to 90% of their staff got in via nepotism as all the people I know there are fond of saying say they got in through the chairman (ABC Orjiakor) or through the MD (Austin Avuru).

MadarasBlade:


Go and sit down, i know of his story with access bank, it's online for all to see. But what i won't accept from you is that he employs only igbos. Where are the articles, how does only you know about the court order about Avuru's book? You're a liar, and would reap the consequences.

Trying to push a tribal card, wicked idiot.

There is. The guy was insisting on the enforcement of corporate governance. The powerful Nigerians underneath were upset as it was blocking them from looting

NapoleonHill:


Again, it's only those who wear that shoe who know where it pinches.

Let me make a last attempt to make you understand that even if Seplat hires only two Nigerians, they shouldn't face discrimination on their own soil, their government should not be complicit as it has always been the case.

What you don't seem to know is that news travel fast among expat across the country. When you know that there could be consequences for racism, you will focus on your business of coming to Nigeria which is WORK. It has nothing to do with the higher employer is Labour in Nigeria.

After UK revokes your visa, which will not ever be immediately, you still will have 28 days to appeal. After all, your non-attedance might be because a bus hit you on the way to the Home Office and ended you up in hospital.

sweetgala:


A bus hitting you or being unable to attend because of a limitation not of your doing is not same as blatant ignorance and refusal to respect the authority of the office appointed by a sovereign nation to control it's immigration

budaatum:


I don't agree that he was discriminating as alleged. He'd be very stupid to in a country where he is a minority. It's grounds for dismissal in UK where he's a majority, so I doubt he'd be so stupid where he is the minority.

Is the below so unlikely?
