@poster,

Seems to me like you know the answer or you think that you knw the answer.
Either way, rather than posting JAMB question, which does not affect the price of Garri in the market, man up and tell us what is on your mind.

Let us nominate the most ruthless and Notorious Governor in Nigeria.

I go first. I think Gbenga Daniel of Ogun state takes the 1st position amongst other Governors. Reason; He is always fighting everybody; Senator Obasanjo-Bello, Baba Olusegun Obasanjo, Dimeji Bankole, Ogun State House Representatives and recently, fellow governors for the coveted seat of The Governors Forum.

I think Governor Gbenga Daniel's power-plays and politics are overtly aggressive, so divisive and very dangerous. With all due respect and much concern, Governor Gbenga Daniel is a tyrant in the making.

Responses please? Do you share this view or you have a worse candidate for this title

Kudos to the guy. He has sacrificed his job to improve the work conditions of his ex-colleagues. A few feathers will be ruffled, a change will surely be effected, however infinitesimal. Why would people blame the guy for going public? How else do you fight corruption? By sitting on it? Let the guy be. I wish he gets a better job.

As at the point of posting, no work condition has been improved. U don't understand, hostile and sudden resingnation is a regular trend in Glo, this is only a new twist to the trend. I just decided to share this for ignorant peeps to know.

I do not share your optimism.

JUO:

what a topic. where is the resignation mail or letter?

@JUO, please read the first page. Thanks

nkilirox:

I wonder if this guy ever brought up his issues with the HR department with documentation. If he did, was there no action taken by HR? Did he follow due process in place at Glo to address his issues or was he just suffering and smiling? Seeing he didn't mention ever complaining about his work conditions before, I am inclined to believe he did not and is complaining now when it's too late for him.

@nkilirox, pls try and ask anyone about glo HR? With due respect, even those in the HR are suffering and smiling The HR in Glo is configured to do Mr Mike's bidding and punish those who go contrary to Mr Mike's bidding.

Also ask anyone you knw in Glo about 'due process'. It sounds like 'manner from Heaven'.

i have always been a passive member of this site. Reading threads without commenting but i have decided to log in and comment on this one. I was expecting to see a scanned copy of this resignation letter. or a trail of the mail. Is this just a thread that was posted to attract comments or someone on cheap drugs who is seeing the obvious progress of the service provider as the only provider who is able to compete and break the monopoly of MTN in the GSM market. Face it guys Glo has the best Blackberry services and the best call rates in the GSM market. Besides what do you expect from your boss? if he doesn't put enough pressure on you you will not deliver fantastic results. i don't want to believe the pay packet rap because i am i the telecoms industry and i have friends who work in glo. Never heard of the 50-50 excreta. He and the poster are jokers

@Vickbrand, thanks for exhibiting your ignorance so glaringly. I wonder if any of your so-called 'friends' in Glo work in the Sales Dept. Try finding out b/f posting poo.

And about seeing trail of the mail? Sorry guy, I'm not stupid enough to release that. It would implicate a lot of people. Use your No.6 my guy

Jarus:

Now I believe why my friend left Glo(paying him 2.7m per annum) for GTB(paying him 2.5m) in 2008. He also had a very nasty story to tell about Glo. He complained bitterly - no structure especially for Finance people, a Chartered Accountant having to follow bus around in the name of warehouse/store whatever - he even had an accident. It was a nasty experience he had, as he narrated to me then.

This guy must have become extremely frustrated to write such a letter. At times, things could be so frustrating that you don't feel relieved until you spill out your grievance, and you feel even more satisfied when it gets to the right people(the copied people are the backbones of Glo).

Obviously, the guy must have been ready to damn the consequence, and most likely, he may be quitting paid job for his own business. The satisfaction of having let out his grudge will surely make him feel a lot unburdened.

And Glo too will be forced to examine themselves. This will no doubt be a subject of discussion in their management meeting, and I'm sure the mentioned 'slave drivers' will also be called to order, no matter how subtle.

Examine ni, Examine Ko,
Glo and Mike Adenuga cannot be bothered. People resign everyday in Glo in very similar or worse circumstances. The guy in question even bothered to drop a resignation mail. Many just bolted out of the company after dropping their SIMs and ID card without dropping nada. Globacom is a terrible place for many and Heaven for just a privileged few.

Perhaps he doesn't need references anymore or perhaps, he just went gaga with the sysytem

The mail below was sent to HR by an aggrieved GLOBACOM staff upon resignation on September 14, 2010. The same staff copied the ED HR, several Executive Directors including Bella Adenuga, Paddy Adenuga and over 50 other staff. Please enjoy this piece below:


Subject: I quit.

I resumed at Globacom on the 25th day of May, 2009.

I came having heard more negative stories than positive stories about working at Globacom believing that the stories maybe exaggerations but I found that the stories were 99% true.

I tried to fit in even when my well  cultured corporate mind could not believe nor tolerate the level of lack of professionalism at work in virtually every aspect of operations and business in Globacom.

I am tired, I am tired and I am very tired.

What am I tired of ?

1. I am tired of being harassed by Mr. Anil Kumar, Head of Risk Management whom constantly attacks me verbally about coming to trash out customer's issues with Globacom Credit Control Department, Globacom Relationship Department, Globacom Activation Department and the Archive room as no sensible salesman will carry vital approval documents about constantly. Calling and shouting down Mr. Kamaldeen Shonibare, Head of Post Paid and claiming to report me for not working on the field but camping out in his Department. Needless to say, Mr. Anil Kumar does not have any respect for his Host Country and its citizens as he shouts at every Nigerian he believes he can get away with shouting at.

2. I am tired of the standing order that I should get out of the office from 10:30am to 4:30pm even when I need to get back to the office to pull up some vital data in order to service my Clients.

3. I am tired of being told to stay away from the Island because somebody is afraid that I will see something wrong and tell the people with the most to lose if Globacom is hurt of impending dangers.

4. I am tired of having to beg Globacom Finance to act on my Client's email instruction for new lines even as Globacom expects my Clients to respect my emails and to act on them.

5. I am tired of having to beg Globacom Finance, Globacom Credit Control and Globacom Activation Departments to activate lines of Clients whom are owing arrears even as Glomobile Post Paid has credit over shoot issues that no blanket approval for arrears allowance has been made neither has a Team of Staff being allocated to tackle this phenomenon through an immediate alert approach.

6. I am tired of Memos going to the GCOO for one off exemptions on Post Paid Account issues that are common to all Post Paid accounts of the same type such as three different exemptions for three BSCS Post Paid Accounts for Arrears.

7. I am tired of remembering How I was recruited without being told of the 50-50 Principle thereby causing me to earn less than what I was earning in Fidelity Bank that I came from.

8. I am tired of remembering how when training people in the past and when I inquire of their Pay and Job Function in order to be sure that they are in the right place i find that they are scheduled to do the same Job as myself for twice the Salary and in the following months I do not see any magic reason.

9. I am tired of having to explain why I cannot promise my Client of timely Service or any service at all as I do not know at that very point in time I speak in my Client's Office of the Client's Account's report card with Risk Management.

10. I am tired of remembering how I almost died in the first few months in Globacom at a slaughter slab that was recommended to me as a Hospital for me to attend at near Chevron, Springtime Medical Center it took the intervention of a friend to save me. 

11. I am tired of trying to work harder, think faster and more innovatively for a company that does not appreciate my existence.

I believe it is time for me to clear my desk and seek out a new dream.

I have seen enough working in Globacom is like playing football where all the remaining 21 players are all refrees.

I believe that an Honest Man placed as a Compliance or Best Practices Officer answerable to only the person of the Chairman. An Honest man whom is a firm believer in improvement, filled with great zeal for success whom is not married and is ready to marry Globacom for three years straight without any distraction. Below 34 years of age with at least 7 years of work experience in other fields and at least 9 Months of Post Paid Corporate Sales Experience is adequate.

There is still adequate room for great improvement in the Fortunes of Globacom but we need to be ready to let Market Forces beat us into the right Shape.

I will be winding down my involvements with Globacom though when a man has tied his aspirations to the aspirations of another man or group of men it is hard to totally break away from others.

I wish Globacom well and to all the staff in Globacom i pray you find your own dream that will allow you build your own "Globacoms".

Stay Safe and live Strong.
