I am trying to understand the thinking behind this sacking and protest

IIf a company decides that the services of some staff are no longer needed, what argument can the staff put forward that will be convincing to make them retain them?

If its to get all outstanding allowance, I can understand but to force an employer to retain you on payroll? If the company says its not profitable to retain your services, or your service are not needed, what kain argument you wan get sef
I think they are protesting for their allowances I.e severance package .U know some companies have nice severance packages that have been in place when things still better for naija, but once management change and maybe the company is not doing well financially the management may want to shy away from fulfilling such obligations .

Then according to the news piece it appears there's rancor between the new MD and some members of the board . It's like there's a fight for the soul of the company and the staff are being used as pawn in the game of thrones . The new MD most likely sacked some senior staff belonging to other camps . I believe those are the people sponsoring the protest ; most likely with the blessing of some people at the board level that want the MD ousted

Now i see you didn't watch the Bayer vs Munich game atallllllll. You just jumped ahead of the curve and didn't bother to even breakdown why i used that example. 😂😂😂

Haba.



You talking of pain asif it's just a section of the fans that are feeling it? Chei. Let me just not go further abeg.
There's nothing to breakdown in ur post. You've been singing it all season that we need a striker and almost everybody who watches Arsenal agrees we need a striker. Even Arteta the coach knows we need a striker.

Yesterday we lost and u are back again with the same "we need a striker " chant which nobody has really disputed.

But here u are talking about Leverkusen as if It's their strikers that have scored all their goals this season when in fact Midfielders, wingers and defenders are responsible for ship load of goals.

Even with a striker we could've lost yesterday if we allowed Bayern the same level of chances we allowed yesterday. Do u even know how many times they hit our bar?

I know the loss pain everybody but make we calm down.

Madrid acknowledge they use Arsenal approach vs City to prepare. Pretty obvious?

I was here wondering why Arteta didn't consider using Leverkusen approach vs Bayern to prepare too. Oh!! No pointman. Cheiii.


That's one thing i love about Madrid. They got personnel to do both damages(play their own game or play another's game to frustrate their opponents, and WHEN to use it)
Lolz.

As much as Arsenal need a good striker, the premise of this ur agenda is wrong ; as in totally off point.

Leverkusen highest goal scorer in their league is Writz and he's even a midfielder, not a pointman. Their highest assist maker is even a defender grin

I know u are pained like most fans are, but Leverkusen is no different from Arsenal in terms of playing total football in which they don't rely on a point man to score a gazillion of goals. Their defenders, midfielders and wingers as much as their attackers score (if not more).

For your information, Arteta will surely buy a striker in the next transfer window but don't get ur hopes too high about the type of striker he will sign. I'm very sure he's not going to sign that big, bully and dominant striker u are craving for. Instead, I know he will go for a striker who can play with the team when we are on or off the ball, a striker who can play free flowing football with dem Odegaard & Saka upfront and finally a striker who can score.

I saw these people protesting this morning in front of their office and I was wondering aloud: "what did Heritage bank do to union that they are drumming and singing at their office gate like this ?" .

I didn't even know it had to do with mass sack or no mass sack.

One thing I noticed is that those Union guys had normal educated people among them and also touts who are obviously rented.

Una sure say with this kind negative publicity sef, this kind bank will scale through the recapitalization exercise?

fking bloggers. it sounds dictatorial - but i think they are going to have to get some sort of license

this is pure mental laziness. these people will share something interpret it wrongly, publish it and run with it

the other day someone posted about a guy who made a machine that can perform CPR. i was arguing withh the person who shared this post that a machine cannot perform CPR

turns out the original article was about an automatic cpr bag - which an olodo blogger converted to automatic cpr machine which was then copied and pasted everywhere

as an aside, Tinubu no get time for online noisemakers. for all we know david hundeyin is also back in lagos
Na why I talk say if the story is true, then no be ordinary eyes. How person wey no dey in good terms with government go get mind assault police officer?

I think the trend is police frustrate and push you reach limit for you to react
Then they strike
But if this Dj Switch story is true, I don't think they frustrated her at all. In fact, the police should be commended for trying to be on the side of the law in this her case.

She reported someone, they invited the person and then they gave her the option of either charging the person to court or releasing the person within the 48 hours timeframe the law permits.

Now she's saying she wants the person to do video and apologize so she can put it online. Which kind reasoning be that? If that was what she wanted, then she shouldn't have gone to the police na. She should've just use non-state actors to carry the guy, beat the guy up and force him to do apology video. That way we will know she took the laws into her hands with her full chest.

Aswear she's giving the vibe that Nigerians don't really hate injustice afterall

Shey na the Governors dem wan hand over State Police to be dis abi? EFCC secured an arrest warrant against Bello, so what is the issue here?
Governors will just turn mini gods the moment state police is handed to them; they will determine who lives free or gets locked up indefinitely in their state. Imagine a journalist criticizing a government's policy, the governors will just have them locked up without trial and claim it is criminal defamation.

But in that yesterday matter between Bello and EFCC; those I pity are the youth in the video. I look at them as if they are under a curse. I mean an ex-governor who impoverish u is about to be arrested by EFCC for financial misappropriation and una cheer the current governor for coming to his rescue. Suffer never tire them at all for that side

Tomiyasu was getting molested all day by Sane in the first half; at a point Sanw even made him do split in the middle sef. He wasn't having a good night at all.


I know Kiwior will go more physical with Sane and force Bayern to play through the other wing more sef.

If Timber was fit, I wouldn't have questioned you. Off all the 3 LBs available, Tomiyasu is the most solid.
It's not about being the most solid LB, Tomiyasu wasn't having a good game and Kiwior would've easily replaced him. For all Kiwior's inadequacy I'm sure as hell he won't allow that Kimmich cross ; rather he will close Kimmich down by narrowing the angle .

Subbed off for who? He should rather wake up o
I suggested that Tomiyasu be subbed off , u were asking me for who. Guess what ?

Tomiyasu was busy holding his arms behind his back and looking away from the ball all in the name of defending allowing Kimmich whip in the initial cross. Then he stayed rooted to the same spot and didn't put in any effort into defending when the return cross came to Kimmich .

As they say, the rest is history .

It's allowed. Peter Obi said he would float the Naira, then when it floated too far he said "I would have floated it, but defended it at N700".

Only first world countries can really guarantee a float without interventions.
How Peter Obi take enter this matter now ? grin

Anyways the crux of the matter is there's nothing wrong in admitting something didn't go as planned and take ur L in peace instead of beating around the bush with half-truths .

Nobody will beat u, at least u have ur 4 years guaranteed by the constitution until next election. There's nothing wrong in being honest with the situation of things. People will only troll and move on afterwards.

That's better than the petroleum minister sounding unintelligent on national TV trying to insult the intelligence of millions of Nigerians

A Central Bank Governors job by definition is to avoid spooking the markets. Propaganda can't be levelled against him, he is doing his job which includes softening the message and obfuscating the naked truth if need be (not saying he is). He is simply doing his job towards a greater goal of protecting the economy.
Nobody said the CBN governor shouldn't do his job .

Nobody said defending the naira is wrong or illegal .

In fact, nobody really cared about whether Naira was being defended or not until Tinubu led APC government made defending the naira look like a bad thing .

The CBN under Cardoso bold faced told us naira has been floated and henceforth the CBN will no longer determine the exchange rate but that only interaction between demand and supply will be determining the exchange rate . The old practice of defending the naira or intervention by CBN will no longer happen .

So we are only curious to know if like most of Tinubu's policies that didn't work out as planned; perhaps they have quietly gone back to the drawing board without "louding it ". At least that was what happened with petroleum subsidy .

It's nothing deep at all

"I perceive a future where we really don't need to intervene"

Tells me all I need to hear. grin
That's what is called PROPAGANDA .

Most people don't know propaganda includes facts, half-truths , outright lies and sometimes a mixture of everything just to influence public opinion.

U can see Cardoso's statement has already achieved its aim grin .

Person say he perceive a future where they won't need to intervene ( which obviously mean that's not what obtains in the present ) , but see people refusing to see his statement was half-truth. He talk half, he leave the other half for una to go figure .

At least he was wise enough not to ask people to go bring evidence of intervention like petroleum minister was asking grin
