Many states do it for only Government jobs....Can you show me any state that is forcing the private sector?

He is saying even the private sector must prioritize indigenes....I don't know, but that is a risky move

raumdeuter:


You cannot enforce for private sector but you can take away govt patronage from the private company who doesnt comply

I can be in Oyo and decide to only employ Benue farmers because of some reasons.

Una go use extreme clannishness spoil that Akwa-Ibom.

The outsiders you refer to are Nigerians right?

Theflint1:
The states that do it sef don't come out explicitly to say so and even go as far as ratifying it in the state's laws. These are the sort of things you handle quietly at the backend.

raumdeuter:


Ibom air office in Lagos will comply with Local Lagos laws and employ accordingly. Ibom air in Akwa Ibom will employ only indigenes

Its like Chevron in Nigeria will comply with Nigerian employment and Labor laws observe Naija public holidays and not US holidays

Well, he inherently confirmed allegations of 'outsiders' being given state civil service jobs. Something I stated last year on this board Akpabio's wife was very guilty of as First Lady in favour of her kinsmen.

My concern socio-politico-economically really is the implementation of the the PIA and Host Community Development Trust, and the stipulations of the Oil and Gas Freelance Zone, all formed/created in 2021.
Those would employ multiple times what the state government ever can directly and indirectly. And that's just employment-wise.

Most places do it, in Niger Delta, Oil service companies have a quota for local people. If you are a graduate from oil producing community, they used to give preference to them as well

Many places dey do this for long whether coded or openly

GloriousGbola:


i am saying what stops lagos and other states doing tit for tat?

ibom air flies to lagos, calabar, port harcourt, enugu, abuja. therefore they have offices in all these states. so what happens if the states also take the same line? all ibom air employees must be indigenes of our state

GloriousGbola:
the irony is that you now see the locals selling their slots. happens in ph all the time.

Many states are already doing this and have been doing this for a long time. Its official in many states especaly in the North that state gov jobs are for indigenes. Thats why you see some non indigenes start claiming that state

Its left for those not doing it to take a cue so you don't get disadvantaged

They are passing it as a law nau.

BlueRayDick:


What I don’t understand is how will a state government compel private owned businesses domiciled in the state to prioritize employing indigenes of that state .

I know the state governor can try that nonsense with civil service jobs that are of no consequence , but how will u compel private businesses that ought to be merit based to adopt such archaic and regressive approach to talent acquisition within their organization ? 🤷‍♂️

DissTroy:


Exactly! Since 2021 the FG has passed a law which states host communities in the Oil and Gas Free Zone are entitled to 60% of all jobs in the area.

They also have the right of first refusal for contracting as long as their competence is proven.

Anambra kicked out other Igbos from its civil service more than 7 years ago.

You expect state governments whose IGRs are shared by the FG to employ people from other states when their taxes go to the Centre? Just because Lagos is magnanimous doesn't make it a right.
