Xenophobia: Protesters Vandalize MTN Abuja Office by NorthernParrot(op): 3:22pm On Feb 23, 2017
A MTN staff who was in the premises when it happened said the staff scurried for safety while the attack lasted for some minutes before the intervention of security operatives.

“I just heard people running then I started running to hide and by the time we came out after the security operatives chased them out, they have packed all the laptops we used to work, all the phones on display for sale, they broke some computers and took people’s personal phones and money,” the staff who pleaded anonymity said.

The source added that cash were also taken but the amount could not be ascertained at the moment.
“They got into the premises, the windscreen of a car was broken , all the doors from the reception to the personal service were destroyed,” the staff said adding that the vandals were chanting xenophobia songs even after they were chased outside the premises by security operatives.

When contacted the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Manzah Anjuguri said he has not been briefed on the incident.

I would have supported this reprisals buh giving a second thought this action will render many Nigerians jobless .


Is good if we tread with caution
Re: Xenophobia: Protesters Vandalize MTN Abuja Office by Onechancearmy(m):
The level of lawlessness under the Buhari regime is getting out of hand. His regime is always helpless whenever there is lawlessness. MTN Nigeria is incorporated under the laws of Nigeria. 95% of its workers are Nigerians.

Not that many South Africans actually work in the junior and middle management of the company in Nigeria.

If this stup.id administration is not careful, at the end of the day Nigeria will lose both ways:

1. The deaths of Nigerians in South Africa will go unpunished;

2. The South Africans will divest and pull out billions of dollars from our economy not to mention thousands of jobs lost.

Even more stupidity from the Buhari regime. MTN Nigeria is incorporated under the laws of Nigeria. 95% of its workers are Nigerians.

All MTN needs to do:

deduct equivalent of 30 sec call in Naira from all its subscriber here in Nigeria or

deduct 5mb data worth in Naira and call it system glitch.

and all losses are covered.

No matter how we decide to "play" Nigerians are at the mercy of MTN. grin grin

This is sad and embarrassing, must we reciprocate foolishness? Anyway, these are certainly just useless miscreants showing their talents as usual. I can already see some supporters on this thread.
