I join to curse our national assembly that hv turned a blind eye to that malicious labour law... where is that senator dt trys to mk common sense? Let him move for it to be amended...

pls do we have good lawyer in the house , that can help nigerian workers . MTN & ALL company in dis country are guilty of dis issue , NLC , UNIONs & SENATORS cannot do anything .

Sad as it is...we keep missing one line...this act is being perpetrated by Nigerians...MEMCOS of MTN NG is 100% Nigerian. The only plague in Nigeria is Nigerians...our greed and selfishness is overbearing. May God help us all

This is expected now, when your govt slammed an outrageous fine on them, they pleased yet no mercy coming from anywhere now to respond they have sent the contract staff into the lab our market.

So carry your protest to Ncc SNF the minister of labour and even the president let them deal with your employment. I guess they created those jobs to engage more people but now the whole thing I'd scattered, and wait for it more companies are surely going to lay off because the body language isn't encouraging.

The heart of man is desperately wicked chai. How people just thought out this kind of wickedness against their fellow men beats me. Taskmasters everywhere.

When we were agitating for unionisation of MTN CCR at Jos Call Centre in 2012, You( Lagos CCR) labelled us rebels. When we were sacked, you said they served us right. It was our turn few years back, now is yours. Deal with it.
Had it been u cooperated with us and allow us to showdown 180 for just 48 hours, our demands would have been met and u won't find yourself in this mess today.

Nigerian youths has become so vulnerable and helpless in their won father's land. just because the government has refused to do her job. this is very bad, well I don't blame the government much because Nigerian youths are cowards and foolish, we are ready to settle for scrumbs under the table of the rich than to fight, work hard to be able to eat the main food.
The Nigerian youth I'm sorry to say has become slaves in this present day Nigeria.

I don't agree that the Nigerian youth deserve all the blame. If these guys complain and are laid off they will be replaced in the twinkling of an eye. It's terrible to be young and full of energy but not have a job and a means to sustain yourself and your family. Those who have work will do anything to keep that job whatever the circumstances. Therein lies the root of the exploitation. Employers are taking advantage of this situation and no one is protecting the rights of those young people.

This is an open secret but everyone just tend to ignore it. ...which way Nigeria?

MrKong:

What part of your brain is damaged?...I'm just curious

the insult is uncalled for... the conditions in the country was and still can be likened to a zoo. has nothing to do with pmb or gej or bbc.

My brother I'm not blaming the youth entirely, the government are to be blamed for not protecting the rights of her citizens, but the youths have a role to play in the government, even in voting whoever is in government. wish we could all open our eyes come 2019, our problem is that we continue to sabotage our efforts.

Honestly and it's painful. Honestly if I can have my way out of this country, I will glad leave without looking back.

if you want to and cannot afford US and UK then look for tuition free schools in Scandinavia. Your only hope will be your brain you can actually study courses that will enable you get work permit when you're done.

So sad, this country is just a mess because at the end of the day this petition will just fizzle out without any effect.

95% of the time those help desk guys are simply useless.
From their unprofessional way of talking and handling issues to their lack of empathy!!!
If you are not adding value to the system, why should you part of such a system?

Labour laws in Nigeria are poor, no doubt. But the lack of modern skills and job opportunities is the root cause of issues like this.

Call centre jobs (online customer relations) isn't a career path. It should be viewed as riding commercial okada or keke. You do it (for 1 year) for the money and little experience and move on to something better.

There's no growth or much career prospects in call centre jobs. Infact they shouldn't employ graduates, that's how poor the jobs are. The work schedule leaves you no time for personal development. Before you know it...years have gone. I know someone who resigned after 7 years of stagnancy (Only moving along segments).

I'll ask you to move on with your lives. Getting sack or rendered redundant from a call centre job is a blessing. It is freedom! It is liberating!

Use this period to rediscover who you are,what you can do and what you really want to do. There's more to life then AHT and Teleopti

Bros, it's people like you that make d whites call black people, a retarded monkey.

Are u this dull to comprehend the OP's article? The cry and grievance of MTN contract staffs issue has been from the onset even before GEJ became the president.

It's really not GEJ or PMB incompetence, this is NCC, CAC and other labour regulatory bodies fault. Seriously this country has been destroyed by evil cabals.

As for MTN, your days are numbered. Make una continue along side with Indians.

Lol, this con3 being a zoo according to kanu has nothing to do with GEJ vs PMB

Fourwinds:
shot up...where was Kanu when PDP ruled dis country for sixteen years...A government headed by Obasanjo sign d agreement dat brought MTN to Nigeria....government officials collided with MTN to reap off Nigerians....Senators,, honorables., ministers. and Obasanjo are guilty in dis exploitation ....

see zombies, kanu's zoo concept predates the birth of APC, nigeria has always been a shithole that benefits only the imperialist oyibos that created it

and ur region is better of with those entrusted with their various states and fund given from d federal pulse....apart from Anambra how well is d others.?

nigerians sold out nigerians n make us the lower class to suffer.
these foreign nationals know all the elites hv a price tag, from the immigration to the licensing office.
my boss who works at continental ship yard at apapa wharf tell me so many stories how fellow nigerians will collect money from these foreign nationals just to discourage n stall the abolition of this slavery in form of contract staff.
abi na the immigration officers who allow unskilled foreign nationals to come into the country to work without papers n workpermit n they r being paid as expatriates when they dont even know anything.
tomorrow they will say impunity like say the whole nigerians r not impugned already.

When I raised the issue on Nairaland before the sacking of workers came to be, it wasn't taken seriously (not even moved to fp). I wonder why many people like taking medicine after death.
We have been abused and used as slaves in this country and it will continue to happen if drastic steps like the one in my mind isn't taken

Why dont you read before commenting?

You are too sentimental and tribalistic. You look for every chance to show your hatred for the present administration. How the hell does this issue have to do with nnamdi KANU?

NLC are slow pokes. After reading this I can't be rude to any CSR anymore. You never know what he or she could be facing

I am a victim of SUCH deplorable and sadistic behaviour after serving MTN for 3 and half years of my life as a ccr.

Thank God for his faithfulness, am much better of today after leaving MTN in sept 2015.

And av since ported my personal line to airtel. Am so DONE WITH THE SILLY FIRM CALLED MTN.

#PISSED.
