Soundcity, Urban FM fire OAPs for protesting over months of unpaid salaries

Soundcity 98.5 FM and Urban 96.5 FM have fired three of their OAPs for embarking on a strike in protest against months of unpaid salaries, MyNigeria learnt.

The OAPs embarked on the strike after the management organized concerts and award shows despite owing them salaries.

A lady identified as @Marycollete_ disclosed this on Twitter while lamenting the situation OAPs are facing in Nigeria.

She wrote: "So ALL the OAPs that work at CMA (@Soundcity985FM and @Urban96FM) went on a silent strike due to MNTHS of unpaid salaries but instead of settling things amicably, THREE of them were singled out and fired as a lesson to the others for daring to demand what is due to them.

"This is not an issue that started today, It has actually been going on for YEARS and now that they’ve had enough, some of them get fired as a way of silencing the rest. And guess what? It worked!

"This has to be the highest form of bullying I have ever seen. You owe your staff for MONTHS without any form of explanation/communication but go on to organize concert(S) and an award show and expect them to fold their arms and do nothing? Come on! These are the issues".

So ALL the OAPs that work at CMA (@Soundcity985FM and @Urban96FM ) went on a silent strike due to MNTHS of unpaid salaries but instead of settling things amicably, THREE of them were singled out and fired as a lesson to the others for daring to demand what is due to them. THREAD
