Crimecity: Btw 50k in 2014/15 is worth more than 100k in 2024.
50k in 2014 was approximately $300. 100k in 2024 is approximately $70.
50k in 2014 got you 7 bags of rice. 100k in 2024 gets you 1 bag.
Yesterday he was a supporter of Buhari and asked for wage increment, today he is supporting Tinubu and now talking about population control instead of advising Tinubu to increase the wage amount like he did in 2015.
Hypocrites!!
Tomorrow, they will say Obidients and anyone kicking against the current happenings and policies of this Tinubu administration as Enemies of NIGERIA
MrBrownJay1: funny bit, but let me ask: - why you bring your child to work, to begin with? - if this isnt the 1st time you came late to work, then would this punishments make things better? wouldnt it better to just tell her that her paycheck will be docked every time she arrives late. - or better yet, to tell her that next time she is late, she can stay home as she will not be needed any longer...
That's why employers has surcharges. U come late, Ur salary cut off... Even by the look of things, I am not so certain she's an employee in that workshop. She may be acquiring a skill. Something she paid for, why still subjected her to that inhumane treatment...
Juliearth: Pride is innate in the hearts of every man, but if one considers what one stands to lose by allowing it play out, one may decide to play the fool's card. Ergo, I understand why this lady chose to obey rather than walk away.
The lady knows where the shoe pinches then choose to stay. The heart of man is truly wicked...
LexngtonSteele: Well. I know Nigerians and pity stories.
But don't allow yourself to be dehumanised.
If she doesn't like this treatment... instead of complaining, leave.
I left an international organisation with crazy pay because I couldn't take shiit being offered and I said so, point-blank.
By looking at the lady, I do not think she has the means to leave her oppressor (boss). Life happens, it is what it is... The welfare of the child might even rest on the poor lady. I am very much happy kindhearted people has been reaching out to her....
Mikespecialone: African way of training their apprentice..... this one is even fair , if na mechanic u go learn or rewire and you came late to work na that long black cable wire Oga go use wipe ur life comot
In what world is it right to physically punish an adult?
You are patt of the problem with Nigeria. Willing to tolerate NONSENSE and never questioning people in positions of perceived authority. That's why Nigerians continue to SUFFER in silence.
Anyway, I blame the poverty that drove the lady into the arms of an UNHINGED idiot.
Those siding the boss are just something else. Like wtf
madridguy: The boss is right. Useless headline to attract unnecessary comments. Where is the daughter kneeling down? She is the one serving punishment and not with her daughter.
The said boss is trying to let her know what punctuality means at work. If she think she's too big to be kneeling down, then let her start coming to work on time.
She's not working, she's learning a skill. She paid for it. She can decide when she can be available. There's an agreement signed, either few months or years. It's left to her if she couldn't catch up due to her incessant late coming. Asking a nursing mother to kneel down is evil. Where is humanity. C'mon!!!
GistMedia0: Prominent Nigerian activist, Aisha Yesufu, has responded defiantly to those calling for her arrest after she refused to stand during the recitation of the reintroduced national anthem.
In a bold statement, Yesufu dared anyone to arrest her for exercising her right to protest, saying: "I dare anyone to arrest me for sitting down while the new national anthem is being played or recited."
Yesufu's refusal to stand during the national anthem has sparked a heated debate on social media, with some calling for her arrest and others hailing her as a hero for standing up for her beliefs.
The reintroduced national anthem has been a topic of controversy in Nigeria, with some citizens welcoming the change and others expressing concerns over its implications.
