interesting..... My fear is if this post gets to front page, blow out will likely occur... Can the admin hide or delete it because i don't think it healthy for both the plaintiff and the defendant.

This keeps me wondering. Why would I call myself a farmer and be earning less than 50K when I can actually go to the market, procure myself a hole and cutlass and find a fertile land to farm upon. FYI, there's is a handsome reward in farming only that the farmer has to be patient.
This whole case is getting uninteresting. All this documents still hasn't prove otherwise the allegations levied against the farm management subjecting it Trainee to hard labour. No part of the agreement was it stated that a Trainee has to manually carry out his/her duty.
So by my unbiased judgement, both parties is at fault and as such, the management of the Aroms farm should rather concentrate on producing more crops rather than prove what's already proven.
That's my own piece

1. If you can call yourself a farmer, then you should be an employer of labour rather than trending under Nairaland's job search section, looking for who to pay you 50k and above. If one can call himself an Agric graduate, then what has he spent 5 years learning in school?...was all he learnt in school is to be trained again in his field and also be employed, then he dictates to the employer how much he is to be paid without generating a dime_revenue/profit making for the farm?

2. If you're called a farm trainee, you're expected to stain your hands with soil, otherwise that's not a practical training and ultimately not a 'farm'. The man in question was not forced to apply and become a trainee. He had better gone to Abuja and tell his president to give him the job of Agric Minister so he can live royally from day one.

3. If you followed the trend well, you would have read his colleague comment that they weren't subjected to hard labour, rather they had 2 farm hands attached to each of the trainees. If all he wanted in a farm was to be fully automated from pre-planting operations to post-planting operations, then he should have left from day1 or better still, setup a model farm for himself so Aroms Farms will learn from him and replicate his model.

4. If a foreign investor could think of coming down to help you make your life and offer you a job, then you should think twice why you're on the 'job search' section on Nairaland having sleepness night just to have a notification of a job opportunity after being an Agric graduate.

5. @TheSlyone2,....I don't think you're in the best position to revise/refresh Aroms Farms's business strategy, vision and mission by telling them to focus on producing more crops. Do you know what Aroms Farms is all about?

My keen advice for you is to read, assimilate before you comment. The image of an organization is involved here.

Forgive me sir, I said what I said based on what I went through with one automotive company I last trained with. Imagine, we (Trainees) were meant to be trained on the principle of Automotive technology so that after the Training, we won't be the one doing the job but rather we will be an instructor to who ever is doing the job. But the whole story changed afterwards, a total and complete mechanic was what we were. Before I quit the training, I ask myself just this question ; if actually what they needed was mechanic, why promise to train us when they can always go to the street and employ mechanic to satisfy their quest? Permit my choice of words. The truth is, I don't know Aroms farm neither do I know Mr. Blessing but I just felt it will be in the interest of the management of the farm to let the whole story slide. I'm considering how much damage it will do to the image of the farm if this thread gets to front page. Mr. Blessing is just one entity, no one knows him on Nairaland. He can always move on with his life afterwards. The same cannot be said about Aroms farm, this is a business organization and the management is failing to realize that all Blessing wanted is just attention. The more you tend to prove your stance, the more the whole saga get heated up. Like I said, Blessing can always walk away free man and still secure a new job but Aroms farm's image is at stake here. He needed attention, stop giving it to him. Try as much as possible to contain this thread from making front page. That's the aim of Mr. Blessing all along.

There's no maturity in replying all your opponents point, at times, silence is considered the best answer. At this point, the management has done enough. I in particular laud their resilience in making sure the general public gets the true picture of what transpired but the truth is, Blessing has already gone done and it will be unwise on the part of the farm management to be dragged down by him.

I can't believe what I'm reading. Someone gets FREE training and is now raising dust? If the training was too rigorous, the proper thing is to thank your trainers and leave respectfully. Or were you held against your will? I actually feel disgusted.
