ouzo1:

😂😂😂

Kompany is wise for taking off that upper mechanic brother after the yellow he collected on top his poor performance in the first half

MorataFC:
No be handball be dat?

The hand dey natural position.

iamoyindamola:
Tah very useless player, mechanic and tah partnership is disaster

Their defenders are terrible ; ball just hard them to play. That Upper Mechanic dey play ball like say he wear shoe gbengbe bàtà yahoo

This bayern team no Sabi like that, any decent team in good form can beat them by capitalizing on this their weak defence.

Who be this bayern defender wey dey roll like barber chair? 🤷‍♂️

That Caicedo dey always play gidigbo football as if he's playing rugby and gets away with it most times. I guess today is not one of those days

Kane baba elegba Don make it 2-0

Penarity!

Beorn:
WTF did I just watch? 🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

Crazy stuff. She initially got a default judgement against Tosin because he ignored her frivolous lawsuit.

Tosin later got his lawyer to contest the whole nonsense and had the case thrown out. Now she's lamenting Tosin spent over 20k pounds as legal fees just to avoid paying her 11k pounds as child support

raumdeuter:
While on the subject of getting away with it

The investigation cleared Paul Adefarasin of wrongdoing

“Findings revealed that the object seen in the viral footage was not a firearm but a stun gun, a non-lethal device.

https://www.nairaland.com/8521174/police-clear-pastor-paul-adefarasin

Funny thing is when the police reacted to the initial story they claimed stun gun is a weapon which is prohibited/illegal. Now they are saying it is non lethal device.

They can't even be consistent all in a bid to sweep the whole thing under carpet. Anyways it's not like we were expecting anything diffrent Sha.

She tried to sue Tosin for child support for his brothers child wtf 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/Vb93eRRthF

This crazy lady sued Tosin for child support for her daughter. Tosin is her daughter's uncle because Tosin's brother is her baby daddy.

So she's suing Tosin for child support for his brother's child 🤦‍♂️

All these oyinbo Craze gan o.

Sometimes we talk and act like we live in an utopia where the law is upheld and actions carry measured consequences.
The only time proper steps are taken is when the dons loose their money like what happened at First bank with the over 40billion theft....

When it comes to these kind of issues involving the lives or health of mid/low level staff nothing meaningful happens.
I mean it's this same Nigeria that the police connive with families to release muderers quietly, frame innocents and vanish into thin air.

I already acknowledged in my previous post that proper justice may not be done because of the Naija factor.

BlueRayDick:
There are people who would have serious health complications much long after this incident is forgotten due to the smoke they’ve inhaled before they were rescued .

Normally people like that should be able to sue the bank in the future but I doubt if such lawsuit will go anywhere if they file it in Nigeria . That’s Nigeria being Nigeria

Still on still , I'm saying there's no way the bank will be able to pin the incident on a low-level staff except maybe the staff was either responsible for starting the fire or was the one that failed put out the fire at the initial stage knowing that is his primary job. Every finger points to the negligence of the management from failure to provide emergency exit to failure to implement/enforce safety measures.

GloriousGbola:
they have legal liability

and they cant pull a TB joshua in this case

right now they are likely looking for the scapegoat who will go to prison for negligence

if they can pin this on a lowly employee naija sty;e they will do so

but in reality this goes all the way to elumelu or at least the facility mgt ceo

the culture you create as oga is what leads to issues like this

penny pinching and dismissing safety issues as unnecessary overhead

How will they pin it on an employee? The company/management should be made to take the fall because clearly they didn't take health and safety of their workers really serious from the shiit show of yesterday.

How can they not have emergency exit? What happened to fire extinguishers and hydrants? How did the fire get that serious without an alarm being raised at the initial stages for people to evacuate?

How do they want to pin all of that on a low level employee?

GloriousGbola:
people about to come to the reality that Tony Elemelu is a stone cold capitalist

nigerians love to deceive themselves that these guys are somehow altruistic

but Elemelu has fked up MAJORLY in the response to this

this shows you UBA corporate culture

they must think they are sending out internal office memo

I've always known the guy behind that cloak of philanthropy and aspire to perspire mentorship image Tony Elumelu puts up.

There was a time one ex-banker on LinkedIn took it upon himself to run a crusade against Nigerian banks using graduates as contract staff with poor terms of service for years. The guy called most of the banks involved in the practice out and somehow UBA's name just keeps popping up as one of those banks. A lot of contract staff shared their experiences with the guy his inbox and he was posting their complaint while protecting their identity. A whole lot of the UBA contract staff had bitter tales to tell.

At some point the guy tagged Elumelu himself and he promised to look into it. I doubt if he did eventually because the other banks that either converted their contract staff or increased their salary the guy mentioned them, but I can't remember the guy mentioning UBA for doing likewise.

Chai
Short of words
Now they blocked comments on my SM

U can see how dishonest they are with their press statement claiming they ensured safety of all the workers. Smh

They know people will drag them, especially relatives of the victims; that is why they blocked comments on their social media pages.

YoungB1a:
Lost a friend yesterday in this tragic incident

Eeeyah. Sorry for ur loss

Apparently people died in the incident. People are already calling UBA out for the terse and ambiguous statement they released.

popizaino:
Lost my mum this morning. 💔

Sorry for ur loss bro. Praying for u and ur family the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.

iamoyindamola:
It's becoming recurring
Could be target attack

I don't think so. The electrical wiring of most of those houses they converted to shop in that axis is terrible. Also, some of them keep their generator and fuel on their respective floors instead of the ground floor.

So some of those fire incidents are caused by electric spark when NEPA brings light and then the fire is escalated by the fuel and generator they keep on their shop floors. The fact that the buildings are too close to each other makes it difficult for the fire to be put off by fire service and volunteers. I have witnessed some of those fire before.

I think another fire happened at mandillas yesterday

Yes, the market side. Some shops were affected

izzou:
[color=royalblue]It's possible that they don't own it oh

They could be tenants sha. That one sef dey.[/color]

Baba na Tony Elumelu get that building. I dey marina the day Sanwoolu commissioned it around 2020 before Covid lockdown

Amigoss:
United capital,Heirs insurance,His wife owns Avon are all allegedly in the building.....Technically they own the building

Omo ! 😲

See how statement lack any form of empathy . They even referred to building owned by their oga as “ a building on broad street “ 🤦‍♂️

Theflint1:
The amount of unavoidable deaths that occur in this country is just crazy, people are basically one health or situational emergency away from losing their lives.

There are people who would have serious health complications much long after this incident is forgotten due to the smoke they’ve inhaled before they were rescued .

Normally people like that should be able to sue the bank in the future but I doubt if such lawsuit will go anywhere if they file it in Nigeria . That’s Nigeria being Nigeria

Ibime:
I have a keen interest in following in-depth survivor stories from major disasters especially Titanic and 9/11

I suspect there will be a few more deaths from smoke inhalation in that building from the video I saw of them crowding around the windows, and expect more stories like these over the coming days and weeks

You may not be wrong. The person I spoke with told me one of the workers who escaped "unhurt" was coughing and spitting out black Saliva/Phlegm in her presence.

Somehow the local media has been quite on reporting number of deaths from the incident. I have a feeling the safety concerns as per this incident will be swept under the carpet and nothing will really come out of any investigation/inquiry.

Tochex101:
Sprinklers and auto smoke detector systems are usually designed and provided for at the blueprint level......... post construction addition is difficult to achieve.
This fire incident clearly shows it wasn't preconceived.

Then it’s a shame that a big organization like that declaring over a trillion Naira in profit will have such big office space that lacks basic safety and emergency measures .
