This my former governor na heavy criminal! He did this to prevent people taking snapshots of documents of shady deals of properties he allocated to himself , his family and friends from getting to the public domain or taking real time videos of incidents that go on at his place of work

Emperor Wike grin

The man is still pained and yet to recover from what transpired between him and that young soldier.

He never saw it coming. He thinks too high of himself

A backward person is Wike.

So what about WhatsApp messages for communications and group chat messages?

Note taking and prompt reply to emails?

Man is afraid of his pictures getting leaked again.

If you have idea of the motives behind this, you will cry for Abuja.

There is no task you can carry out without the junior staff and they are usually the ones, assisting us to know few little things about this evil doers.
If you know the amount of Lands and papers they processes on daily basis and willed to their families.

They can't stop the junior staff but are using this to curbs them from disseminating the information out.
FineUsername:
Within office premises and dem go allow you use your phone during break time.


This will increase productivity, although we all know that civil service in Nigeria get only 12% productivity compared to private sector wey get at least 70%

Assuming e dey possible to privatize some MDAs for 1 year, wuna go see wonders.

No worry Statisense go soon release results. cheesy

This is the kind of attitude and actions that make us appear like a zoo. This is what also qualifies us as disgraced country. What type of nonsense is this?

This is unconstitutional, evil and wickedness, playing minigod. Why would I go to work with only torchlight phone, does that office have anything to do with gathering security information about Nigeria that would guarantee such a measure. People working in CBN, EFCC, other security agencies go to work with smart phone.

can we just for once say it as it is. use of phone in work places is just too excessive. all government agencies are guilty of phone use, you will be talking to them they will just be gazing at their phone like you nonexistence
Don't support rascality and it's fictious to say all government agencies. There are disciplinary measures for those not playing by the rules

highoctane:
If you own a firm, many staff waste enormous man hour looking or browsing on their smartphone.
Could imagine a secretary was on her phone and her manager walked in without her knowing.
Reason: She was engrossed on Tinder and Instagram.
Management has much lost a lot of money staff use company's data for posting pictures and online marketing of their personal gains.
Last management meeting some staff suggested the company to subscribe for one of the leading network Internet broadband service.
Hence they director deactivated existing WIFI password. Only Senior managers have access.
Your Anology doesn't relate in any way,why didn't the said company ban use of smart phone outrightly. There rules and regulations guiding every workplace and definitely not taking away smart phones unless few places where there is sensitive informations and materials.

If Wike has his way at the very top, Hitler, Saddam, Tinubu, Buhari, Pharaoh, Kim Jong un abuses put together, would be footmart for wike's power misuse. Wike is a tormentous terrorist.

If Nigerians allow the ban to stand, Wike with the backing of Tinubu will soon ban Nigerians out of existence. I expect Nigerians to rise against Wike's tyranny.

He will never recover from that event, because that was the day he was dethrone spiritually.
Whatsoever transpire that day is beyond ordinary and he knew it.

....and he will never remain the same again.

this Hitler beer beer wannabe always trying to fake being a strong man.

Imagine a country where riff-raffs feel they are demi-gods and always urinate on the ancient stream that washed them as a baby.

Wike has no right to tell people how to live their lives. This ban is a lawless one, a shame for a country that was recently listed as a country of particular concerns, a fantastically corrupt political system and a woo to anyone that adopt it nationality
