Telecommunication Company In Nigeria Goes Broke, Sacks Over 2000 Workers


Reports have revealed that Etisalat,  Nigeria telecom operator  is broke and in order to keep its head above waters ,has decided to sack over 2,000 of its staff across Nigeria. 

According to some of those that were sacked, they were given their pay off cheque on Friday, and asked to go home. In its stead, the operator is now planning to hire casual or adhoc staff to handle most of its jobs. 

Most of those sacked have expressed surprise and disappointment over the development which has thrown them into the already saturated unemployment market. Attempt by journalist to speak to the management of Etisalat to confirm or deny the allegations has been unsuccessful so far.

This has added to the ugly trend Nigerian university graduates are suffering in the hands of foreign investors in the country, whom exploit Nigerians due to the level of unemployment in the country.
