I understand this is Nigeria where people are crazy about connections. People think that because you're from their village, you're supposed to give them a free pass. They won't go through the normal process, and when you refuse, they start to hate you and spread rumours about you.

It is happening to me at the place I work. It's becoming too much because I won't budge. Sometimes I feel like crying. How do I get around this? Why won't people just do things the right way I've never expected anything from anyone because they are from my village or because I know them.

I feel like I won't be able to stand my ground any longer.

Funny.
Start by changing your unreasonable signature and the way you disrespect men. ..

If your village people say you should help them, help them na, or don't you know what village people are capable of, is when they start attacking you before you change. Even if they're not qualified for the job, as long as they're from your village, give it to them. It's called wisdom.

This I have seen.

Life

You didn't clarify what you meant, but I will explain it in the context of employment...

If you see someone from your village who is suitable for a job, madam, consider the person first. That's how people build a strong network. Referrals are given preferential treatment everywhere in the world.

However, why Nigeria's case tends to differ is that we tend to throw competence and suitability out of the window. Later, the organization/customers pay the heavy price. But then, it's also good to create some sort of balance in the workplace.

I hope this predicament have not affected ur sweetness cos we ur online boyfrns will not accept that even for a second

Alright

U too spread rumors too about them

Ok. I guess those guys are real males who give no damn about feminism and hope you're not talking about gender intimidation.

Kpekus doesn't discriminate. Use it

W

Protest or quit d job if u are one of important person, they will call u for meeting and dialogue

Sounds like the cry of a pastor.

Many want Gods blessings, but don't want to live a life of godliness.

I weep for humanity?

strong one

Regardless of the pressure, do what's right. It will pay off in the long run.

I'm just laughing, this government has been from buhari hardhip to survival of the Jagaban fittest ...

Do what is right no matter if they belong to your family, village, or state, it will pay you in the future.

Like seriously local man doesn’t know what to say

ok

Na wa....

Ok thus is how this country became so corrupt ...merit is sacrificed ob the alter of nepotism..look that the past administration who ruined itself because nepotism and so far the new government is going in same direction..nepotism is corruption..so don't give it a chance to ruin your reputation and integrity

So Siofra get job?

And she basically sleeps on nairaland having migraines over issues concerning men?!

When you think you've seen it all, something must happen in Nigeria to shock you to your roots.

Forget nepotism, try and help Jennyclay get a job. That way, she'll at least find some semblance of use for herself and time.

Hehehe .

The funny thing is that they shamelessly engage in such act with impunity.

Nepotism is the reason why most companies in Nigeria are not doing well. A lot of incompetent people everywhere.

A lot of people commenting don't even know the meaning of the word nepotism lol.

Here is what it means "the practice among those with power or influence of favoring relatives, friends, or associates, especially by giving them jobs."

Well, you will need a good career advice in Nigeria to help you navigate this. I will say, get to know the team. take it from there.

My brother, you can not stop it if u reside in the western part of Nigeria. Nepotism runs in their blood to the point that, they can employ a mediocre into office due to tribal advantage.
