Ruke1990:
I am a federal govt worker for 11 years. There are many requests approved by the industrial court 12 years ago, union cannot fight for the implementation. There are times our allowances were cut off by our local mda for 2 years, union did not ask for explanation or even fight for it. The federal minimum wage has not been properly implemented for health workers and judiciary workers, we all got 40k flat payments instead of the usual percentage increments done by government which would have given us more than 40k salary increase. Our salary structure is overdue for review 12 years ago. So many Mou signed but the union declared strikes thrice, we were even denied 2 months salary because of strikes. But at the last hour each time, once they get presidential invitation and have dinner with the presidents, they will call off the strike after they are bribed and we will be asked to resume reversing the progress made
Unionism without union dues deduction is the way forward in Nigeria because now most of these unionists are rogues feeding fat on colleagues salaries and deductions but not willing to sacrifice or fight for their colleagues. Unionism should be outright banned in Nigeria because they have outlived their usefulness and now exist to feed on workers.

You should know better to hold your own union accountable
Am yet to see pengassan members complain what you are complaining

Everybody wants to work in oil companies, if pengassan didn't ensure staff welfare is what it is today, will people desire to work there?

As a federal worker, you should know better than to be generalizing for all the unions, if your union has outlived its purpose opt out

zelnababa:
those union re just after Thier monthly due nothing again.

Sorry baba
Do you have proofs?

Do you also know that they engaged most of the employers of their members including the biggest IOCs you know to get pay rise to cushion the effect of tinubu economics?

Sometimes I don't knownhow you guys come out boldly to say what you don't know

Eniitankorede:
Nupeng and Pengasan are toxic pro-importation unions who destroyed our government refineries. They use their members to destroy private refinery so that government can continue importing with subsidy. Thats why Dangote is mad against them.

State practically how pengassan and nupeng destroyed the refinery. Just give me two ways ooooo. And also tell me the member of which union are responsible for all the crude oil production Nigeria have been surviving on

DarkJeddi:
Oga,you don't work there and you certainly are not privy to any information the company may have.

Where have their Unionism landed the NNPC?

Nobody will sit around and allow people to sabotage their hard earned investment.

If they think that they are being treated unfairly,there are a thousand and one Civil rights Lawyers in Nigeria that can take up their case for free.

If they don't have a case let them bounce.

You guys only mention nnpc
Lol
All major IOCs and NOCs have workers in that union, including total, chevron, nuprc, all of them. Why single out nnpc

So they sack you unjustly, collect food from your mouth, you carry which money and hire a lawyer? Wait till what time for the case to be resolved. While you survive on what? Oga come back to reality

As I said before the lawlessness and injustice will reach everybody and then people will come here and defend the oppressors

chidiokay:
Dangote model you say, You forget Dangote has multiple business and that brand as beinv running for over two decades ... mention one scandal that entails Dangote treating is staffs like slave or under paying

My lil bro worked in Dangote, i know how much is paid and i know how is senior colleagues in office earn .... so please how exactly is dangote slaving them

Do you know how much Dangote pays his truck drivers ... how much teachers dey earn for school

Una go just dey talk anyhow

Am sorry for that your lil brother though. If I ask you now, you will tell me 500k. So 500k is something to you in this economy. Na wa oooo.

Truck drivers: Risk x likelihood of death while on duty Very High
Teacher: Risk x likelihood of death while on duty very low
Tell me who should earn more again

Yes dangote model is the same model being used by all these Indian, Lebanese and Chinese companies. Where workers can be sacked at will, and face all sorts of dehumanizing treatment.

Difference between me and you is that while you are talking based on internet knowledge, I know different realities on ground

Judolisco:
he definitely has an idea of what unionism is all about.... Union members can decide to go on strike if their demands are not met, sometimes dis demands are reasonable, sometimes they are not reasonable.....unionism in Nigeria only benefits the executive members of the union....
They have the right to join a union, dangote also have the right to sack.... It's like lecturers of private universities trying to join ASUU..... It won't work

Now let's do something practical
Mention 2 times pengassan have gone on strike and why?
Point of correction
Unionism benefits all members of the union
If you are not in any then you have no rights to make some assumptions. Life is not lived on social media

North didn't abandon buhari when he failed woefully
So south west should not abandon tinubu with his woeful performance
And the cycle of woefullness can continue. Wonderful logic indeed

Oya na, since it's what presidency in Nigeria has turned into. Lest I forget to add, the politicians are in their boom era. Everywhere stew...... so I don't blame them
I only blame those who are at the receiving end and still supporting them because of brothers they can't even get 100m close to

By January things will be very much clearer.

Front0lane:
So why did the union not protect Nigeria from the workers till they ran the refinery in Warri PH n Kaduna aground ?

Una go open mouth vomit rubbish. I will rather give Dangote the benefit of a doubt than your like. How many Innoson orange drugs or coscharis worker joined union n why are you not wailing about that ?

Union is strictly meant to protect its workers. Management of those refineries are not under union. Union is not meant to dabble into company's account and operating processes, they are not efcc, they are not dpr. They are there to ensure their members are given fair hearing before any sack, ensure welfare is at least minimum survival standards

Innoson workers and cosharis workers are under unions, but obviously I guess you don't know what Pengassan and I don't blame you though.

Seek enlightenment and stop coming here to show what you don't know

SarkinYarki:
This particular union are being sponsored to close down the refinery so the cartel can keep importing Petro...open your eyes

Point of correction
That Union has nothing to do with obstructing operations in the refinery unless their members are treated poorly
All the IOCs have that Union, it's still the Union that will look at inflation rate and tell employers to have mercy and increase salaries. They are the mouthpiece of workers who cannot go to their management and demand a better working condition

You really don't have idea what Union is all about, keep supporting the oppression, it will reach everybody and funny enough when you face yours, some people will be here to defend the oppressor

SarkinYarki:
When you open your own 20 billion dollars refinery allow Saboteurs to remain

Small education for you
Union is strictly there to protect the interest of its members so you can't just wake up tomorrow and sack them for nothing without realizing that you are putting them and all their dependents into hardship

What is happening with all these Lebanese and Chinese companies is pure slavery and that's dangote's model. Unionism is one of the major pillars of the UN ILO

You guys can keep supporting injustice, it will reach everybody

The injustice will sha reach everybody
A Nigerian employed Indians to be treating his fellow country people like thrash and people are here supporting it. Ask the working conditions of dangote's staff, nothing to write home about. No job security, no good insurance scheme

Now he doesn't also want them to join Union so Union will not start demanding that he treats his workers will

No wahala, the lawlessness and wickedness in this country will still reach everybody

Rubbish
It's her life, as long as she doesn't video it and circulate to the public

Monarch that might like be ordering for the arrest might even be doing that on top of a girl

olabrad:
Anyone who takes advantage of people's desperation to give them wicked conditions is a criminal and wicked person.

If you are one of the loan app operators doing that, then you don't deserve to be paid back..

So who protects creditors from debtors who will never pay back even with zero interest?

Oga nobody forced you into their app. If you agree to their conditions and default, let them do to you whatever they wish to
A man of integrity will not agree to a condition that he cannot fulfill

Pootle:
one of the duties of nbc is to regulate anything broadcasted within nigeria cable or terrestrial, in a more organized clime you cant just air what ever even with cable network

Saner climes also have similar shows and with even more exclusive contents.

If they ask you why the show is paining you now, you cannot say

olabrad:
When you are desperate, you'll do anything. Those who tale loans from them are desperate and these scammers tool advantage of their desperation.

Why is the government not supporting the loan apps if their activities are.not criminal?!

So what's my business with what you do when you are desperate

So we should blame your desperation on others. Oga business is business. Loan business without any form of collateral is high risk and should attract high reward. Go and reopen your economics book

This injustice and lawlessness, everybody in this Nigeria will taste the sweetness one way or the other. In Nigeria, we have lost every sense of standing up for one another when the power oppress the lesser.



Funny enough people those who dont know how a sack like this can ruin lives and families will always be there to defend the oppressors. ILO conventions in the mud

It's their turn, they should enjoy

People now use ferry for akwa ibom to calabar because of the deadly dilapidated ever being constructed akwa ibom - calabar road

But priority is coastal highway

All this write up no too long??
Wike do am abi e no do am Simple stuff na

olabrad:
Is that why they are taking advantage of people's desperation by charging 50% interest in 7 days?


They deserve what they get

Did they also force people to take it? It's a high risk investment for them so they deserve high reward.

If you can't pay, don't take

If you borrow money, Pay!!!! the people that borrowed you money didn't pick it fron the road

Those apps have drastically reduced please borrow me money
Some times these wicked measures are the only thing they can do to get their money back

jmoore:
Dude, you just dey make noise. You are shouting 'intelligence' up and down but your comments lack it.

Ned Nwoke, from Anioma is saying he's Igbo.

Am I the one that told Ned Nwoko to say he's Igbo?

Wetin carry alliance enter this matter?

You just dey rant babablu.

So Ned created them abi, or Ned is the one that shares ethnic identities. Oya na go there and call them igbos and come to ph and call ikwerres igbos too.

I said it with my full chest, for most of you, emotional intelligence = 0.

jmoore:
You can't even stay one place. From you are Igbo to talking about no man's land.

The last time I checked Daniel Bwala called Lagos a no man's land.

Dude, go find wetin dey pursue you. And go and find your right identity.

Oya na follow him and call it no man's land and be collecting what they are giving you

I said it before Emotional intelligence = 0
Yes I am igbo, doesn't mean I will be dragging others to abandon their identities. People like u absolutely never learn
No wonder we are finding it difficult to build strong alliances

jmoore:
Ned Nwoko is from Anioma and he is saying he's Igbo.

Current Ohaneze president is from Ikwerre and he says Ikwerre are Igbos.


Who are you in this conversation?

And who is Ned to decide who aniomas are or are not

Go close to an ikwerre man and tell him ikwerres are igbos na.
Since you guys can never learn.
So they should dump their identity and start answering Igbos

Soon they will come out and give you guys what you are looking for.

Same way Peter Obi won in lagos and instead of saying thank you to the yorubas that voted irrespective of tribe, people like you went about pouring shit on their faces with lagos is no man's land, now what is happening

Emotional intelligence- zero

I am Igbo but am in support of everybody getting wotowo when they mess up

jmoore:
Retain ethnic identity? Is Anioma an Arab word?

Anioma means goodland, whether you like it or not. Whether in Ngwa, Onitsha or Delta, Anioma has only one meaning, which is goodland.

The same analysis that made ikwerres detest anything Igbo.
You are Anioma, you are my brother, is different from you are Igbo
More than half of the minority ethnic groups have close ties with the 3 major ethnic groups. Does it mean they all should now abandon their ethnic groups?
I hardly hear yorubas or hausas doing this kind of argument. It can only Bring resentment. You guys will soon drive Anioma to that same point of resentment

Nonsense
Aniomas are Aniomas
Igbos are Igbos
Let everybody retain their ethnic identity
Closeness doesn't mean oneness

If you can't lose interest in your own life, then nothing like loosing interest in your wife

This is an institution and not a play matter. In this generation we now trivialize the seriousness of marriage and this one is here writing 7 reasons husbands lose interest, you can imagine

You enter university, through rain and storm u remain there till you finish but once its marriage you start hearing childish things

helinues:
This thread is not about me. Stop sounding incoherently on my mentions or I will block you

Or "I will block you"
See mgbeke feeling funky
And u don't realize that that's another nonsense off my screen

As who u be na

helinues:
They are both online noise makers with no influence on ground

Online warrior I doubt anybody knows you in your compound

Must they be compared? Each of them is trying make impact in their own way, why don't we just applaud them and leave this comparison thing

Meanwhile I wish all these guys will gather, form a party and fight for the Presidency. If they loose, then it's obvious Nigerians love their chains a lot

Jakumo:
One wonders whether there were other factors that contributed to the UK Home Office deciding to deport this lady.

Painful she was about to graduate with a first class
Feel sorry for her though

They should have issued her a warning at least
Girl just want to work extra hard. I empathize with her Even though we should learn to abide by rules

Some of my Friday brothers will go to mosque with er ections which some of these pictures flying here. Life no too hard already, adding laws upon laws, rules upon rules every Friday

WizardOfNG:
@OP.

The only thing you and your co-travellers in ignorance have succeeded doing is to show that primordial hatred of others can indeed comprise intellect and the ability to do basic research to then render even educated folks illiterate.

Tinubu made the valid and economically sound recommendation during COVID 19 while your messiah Obi and the Dubai-dweller Perennial Presidential candidate were silent and nowhere to be found.

This is a policy that made sense to the extent nations adopted it as an emergency strategy to fight a fearful epidemic that plunged humanity into uncertainty over human and economic survival.

Can you or your hero Obi argue economics with Tinubu you should be learning from yet always rushing to insult ? Shior.

Keep shooting yourself in the foot letting hate and emotions dominate your life to keep you ignorant and backwards.

All the while they were saying buhari and emefiele finished our economy with new naira notes, why didn't you say this?
