I pledge to Nigeria my country

To be Faithful, Loyal and Honest

To serve Nigeria is not by force

Bigchristo:
You just want to exercise your fingers by typing this post, we are talking about Nigeria not South Africa, I’ve seen things more than you do, If you’re familiar with Benin city go ask about Hitech construction company i and my other colleagues fought for workers welfare as the previous corrupt union refused to talk simply because they were benefiting from the company we came they told us 6 months probation then staff behold I saw people working as casual in one year nobody couldn’t talk, until we mobilized shutdown the company activities for one week we protested to governments house and write to state NLC and then dissolve previous union set up care taker committee and make sure the company agreed to staff already due workers, as we were doing this things I get to understand a lots of things why the previous union refused to pilot the workers affairs the same workers you’re fighting for will be the ones leaking every meetings we hold to the company management and write the names of those involved, we face betrayal some of those who we removed as Union even results to using juju to fight us, why others castigated us to be the black sheep of the company, long story cut short we actually succeeded in the quest for having our co workers getting staffed but not everyone make the list, if you start a fight of changing this country that’s when you will realize that 80% of Nigerians are loyal to bad government because that they will sabotage your efforts, look at Endsars for instance it was still the same youth the government sent to sabotage the efforts, Military and police are also affected by bad government but when you start holding your ground to make sure your voice is heard they are still same people that will be deployed to kill you on a nutshell Nigeria is not a country where you can sacrifice yourself others will sabotage your efforts, Mandela fought to liberate South Africans go there today and see how others who came into office now squander resources even Ghana that Rawlings sanitized are now heavily into corruption in govt.. we blacks are too corrupt

You did all that and today you don't think it was worth it?

If you did all that then your conscience should be clear.

Virtue is its own reward.

If you are intelligent enough to understand my post i have answered you. Again,
Is he a permanent secretary or minister in the ministry? Job racketeering is usually done by syndicates of powerful people
If you are not in a top position in organisation don't shake the table.

Since u are intelligent, am surprised you can't answer a simple question based on your claim.

How did the guy fight what was bigger than him?

I did all this and find reasons not to remain in Nigeria because when you talk about rights and standing up for the rights of others you will be heavily criticized and even get killed, I how Endsars protest started in Benin some people even call themselves too righteous to take part because it was a yahoo boy thing, infact everyone who protested against police brutality in Nigeria back then were tagged yahoo boys, forgotten that is not only yahoo boys that are being targeted by police, it’s only in Nigeria you will be protesting for fuel reductions that affects everyone then you will see the same people being used by government to stage a counter protest against what you are fighting for, on a long run those taking part in counter protests are also being affected and stand to benefit from the reduction, na God go help us

If he has given out the information anonymously, the practice might be investigated by the higher authority or syndicates stop doing it completely.
Wisdom is profitable.

^^^

It will not be investigated.

Like I said, the official response will be complete silence or..."we cannot respond to hearsay or rumour". And you think the 'syndicates' will stop because of an anonymous tip? You can see how the man (if this whole story is true) is being victimized for standing up for the truth...and you think an anonymous letter would have had an impact?

There's a simple rule for us to all live by: If we are not bold enough to oppose wrongdoing ourselves, then we should never attack the resolve of those who are bold enough to do what we are too afraid to do. There are many things I don't have the heart to do and that's why I would never criticize a man (or woman) bold enough to challenge evil. It makes no sense.

There is something really bad happening to Nigerian men. It is crazy that we are becoming more and more critical of the few people who are actually bold enough to do what we are too afraid to do. This is the same way people criticized the woman in Edo who was killed by thugs during the state and presidential elections earlier this year. A woman was bold enough to challenge thugs at her polling unit and she paid for it with her life. Instead of a sober recognition of the great sacrifice this woman had made so that the children of her critics would be able to live on their feet (instead of their knees)...so called 'men' on this platform were calling her awful names. Some even had the guts to criticize her for coming out to vote.

We have to choose the kind of society we want and stand by that choice. Not this half in, half out business.

After sueing the ministry in the court of competent jurisdiction, Martin and his lawyer have decided to approach the social media court.

We have to play the long game.

There's no room for tiredness. It is a lifelong struggle.

There will always be betrayal - even by those who will benefit from the struggles of others. But like I said, virtue is its own reward.

This is why some of us do not let lies or propaganda go unchallenged on this platform. We will fight it on the street and online...anywhere we see it.

Of course, Nigerians are peculiar people - they often turn against those who are fighting to liberate them...this sort of ingratitude doesn't make any sense to reasonable people. But the struggle must continue.

The struggle must continue.

If it is investigated by the higher authority ,syndicates would stop doing it some extent.

Some things are not worth fighting for.
Are they paying their salaries from your pocket?
Are you the one doing their duties?
Others saw and looked away .
You saw and wanted to be a patriot..
So they can applaud you and give you special award for diligence?
Nigeria has gone to the dogs .
No one respects patriotism .

Shut up!
Sharrap !!

loswhite:
He is not the hero...lol. They said he was extorting those with fake letters...lol. He should come and explain but we know say him go explain tire without evidence...

He already explained that. Use your brain now, how would someone that exposed job racketeering be receiving bribes? It is witch hunt, and he has witnesses already.

lol. He will be out of job soon next time he will understand to focus on his job description.

No, he can't. Those who recommended his sack and who were to sack him have met resistance and they're now hesitating to go ahead with it because they know it can backfire!

Every single person In Nigeria need to be patriotic and want the best for their country that’s the only thing that can actually savage the situation.

HenryWilliams:



You're the type that loves to stick his head in the sand like Ostrich..
Does this country look like something you sacrifice for?
Does the leaders of this country care or do you see the system working?
All in a bid to sound politically correct.. you come across as a dreamer..
Go to Martins and him as he faces PMB after PMB, query after query for leaking Official State Secret. Which is a gross misconduct. Ask any civil servant.
Once he's fired,Make sure you donate half of your income to his upkeep.
Odensin.
You want to be patriotic to Nigeria?
Gosh.

Sad but true.
The entire system is corrupt it'll take more than one man being patriotic. Things like this have happened many times in the past with terrible consequences to the intending patroit...even Dele Giwa was blown to bits for being patriotic.
It's a very sad reality.

To be honest, some of u Nigerians are not worth fighting for. You naively don't understand the consequences of ur affiliation to corruption for ur stomach.

This kind of racketeering is one of the main reasons lots of qualified youths would spend years after graduating without jobs despite having the necessary qualifications or ion for it.

joyandfaith:


Indiredt expose. You don't have to expose some frauds directly by mes your life. Wisdom is profitable. Bible says all things are lawful but not all things are advantageous.

What is indirect expose in this case? It only got this much attention and investigation because a data entry officer whose duty it was, called it out, otherwise it would be dismissed as hearsay or propaganda..

Appreciate people that have put everything on line to better the system, we all know you can't by your words, but why ridicule who has.. it does not affect your income or your person, why the ridicule?

SadiqBabaSani:
Patriotism has a price

this is a country APC idiots are all praising.. Helinues, and MannaBBQ with their big head will come here Wit nonsense

ican2020:
Why would you get involved in matters that did not concern you or you think your people are recognized in Nigeria

You do do belong to the Big powerful tribes yet you want to take on the authority made God save you from what is coming your way

And after this learn to shut up and mind your business

Work harder for a better country. You should not be a second class citizen.

Just take a look at this nonsense. He will name herself among responsible citizens.. I spit on you.. Next time speak through your brain

Just look at this.. You think without speaking out, you are safe? Ask those who have been kidnapped, displaced by boko haram, banditry whether they spoke out. Some were naive about it yet it caught up with them.. nonsense you will surely be rewarded by it

allthingsgood:


This your ideology is what made nigeria go to the dogs.
Someone sacrificed to make those countries that you look up to what they are today.
When you see someone sacrificing, dont ridicule him. If you cant help, at least dont destroy.
Martins is the hero in this story, not you.

I you on this 👍

The history of the great US tells us that if not for some people like Martin Luther King, who stood up against the odds in those days, US was already going to the dogs.

So US, UK, China, once ed through what we are currently ing through now.

But mind you, Martin Luther King was not fighting for himself like Ajaero. Benjamin Franklin or Abraham Lincoln was not disrespecting and diminishing the country like Obi Onwubuasi is doing,
grand standing and granting press statement every second. Obama, when he was senator, was not running amuck like Dino Melaye. Amanpour of CNN was not destroying US in the committee of nations like the refugee David Hundeyin of LP was doing using his gullible fans to become popular.

They were patriots looking for a sincere change, not for their cronies (like Obi Onwubuasi's or Atiku Sidiq's followers want) to come to power; but a sincere behavioral and moral change in the system.

So the guy Martins here in the ministry of works is an Hero in this matter (I hope he does not also have skeleton 🦴 in his own cupboard)

The whole system is corrupt

You be mumu

Your ideology is very bad. Because of mindset as yours, the country has been retrogressing.
