Yankee101:
No subvention?

ETF gives ALL universities money for infrastructure. Including private ones

Aboki, money for infrastructure isn't subvention.

This is touching! Naija!

Yankee101:
E don start

It has started oh! My organization that receives subvention from the government is about to deny us our May salary. The last salary I received was in April. See how people are treated in their own country.

Blame it on covid

I thought academic staff members were on the safer part but i was wrong. I just got the sack letter in my mail yesterday & it was like a dream..... But now I'm awake to the reality & will ride on the wings of the little investment I made until I find somewhere within or outside the shore of the country to pitch my tent. Life goes on

Wow. Are you one of the affected Bowen staff members?

The rate people are loosing job massively is disturbing o. The rate of crime will just sky-rocket.

sacajawea:
That's lovely

it lovely to have people sacked? You will have a share of this in one form or the other

SavageResponse:
To what purpose?

To protect workers from getting fired without hope of rehiring them.

Gokoyer0:
E never start. You think say na moimoi to lockdown every where like this? The effect will be catastrophic. Some of the kids that are ranting that FG should lockdown indefinitely may soon be hit when their breadwinners lost their sources of income

Can you imagine that European countries are opening up every where so soon despite the number of their casualties.

If you like no open up, all of us are in it together.

no mind them especially that fellow called confirmedzombie on the new covid cases thread always shouting that the economy and country should be locked down for 2 months.

I already have A share of it Oga

NAwa o, this sack still going on?

This is very sad, but lets face the truth, more people will lose their job. Not only because of the virus, nah...that is just by the way. The world is moving towards full time robotics. A.I will soon take over. Just that our own Nigeria is slow at embracing it...but it is on the rise. Dnt we have machines that accepts money now? Who need a bank full of Tellers then? And thats just one out of many industries. Its truly sad like I said...seems we all need to pick some thing up in the world of technology if we still want to remain relevant. It is well.

How can you even sack lecturers

I am surprised, without academic staff the university is dead.

temi4christ:
According to the source, the situation is currently generating anxiety, as some staffers were threatening to protest the action.
“How can the university-owned by a church just woke up and lay off such number of staff at this time? Even the government at all levels are struggling to keep their staff and pay them.

Go and ask Npower!!
Federal Government laid them off without soft landing.
Though its painful, you gat to move on.. Life continues.

But with this A.I coming in the future humans may just be heading for extinction cos if robot take care of medical, lecturing, transport, Admin, Military and so on then human becomes useless cos no need to employ humans when you can buy a robot to perform all functions, then human may have to go to war with A.I in the future in other to survive

So sad mehnn covid don treat everybody Bleep up

Not a good news at all.

yes sir

The uni is owned by a church? and so?
Did the church tell u that they r a charity organisation?
u made a decision to give dem ur tithes and offerings and they have taken a decision to sack u.
calculate the degree of wisdom using the quadratic equation

Omobadan,
Mo moh, I said 'for infrastructure', meaning money you were supposed to use for development can now be saved for long term overhead payments.

It's not rocket science

joshepade:

This COVID had done more harm than good
maybe covid was just an easy umbrella to hide under
Either ways this has been brewing all along
Private institutions across all sector needs to be thoroughly monitored by agencies to avoid undue and harsh decision.

May we not loose our livelihood

manuelreports:
Grab as much IT skills as you can grab
That is the future
The remote work is on trial
Tech and Automation will soon Displace a lot of people from work.
Be innovative
Be creative

Can you ring this loud?

elasticlala:
