A section of Nigerians fear that some workers said to be employees of the recently inaugurated Dangote Refinery may lose their jobs.
This comes after some of the technicians revealed in a viral video that contrary to general belief and media reports, the refinery is not yet fully built.
The multi-billion naira investment was inaugurated in May 2023 and scheduled to commence operation in June.
The workers who showed off their uniforms and ongoing activities in the place said the reports that the refinery has been completed is a lie.
The revelation of the workers has generated mixed reactions online with many saying the workers have indirectly sacked themselves.
The reactions:
el_cardinal: “Na so you go take lose your job… instead of you to focus on your job and getting paid and then keeping your mouth shut! Because there are a million and one people waiting to take your place when you lose that job because of your loud mouth.”
gataluxury: “That’s how some people will loose their daily bread cos of foolishness”
sleepwear_ing: “Now you’ll lose your job. Why not quietly work and collect your money?”

What sort of generation be this sef? Most of you know what is right, want what is right yet are too cowardly to take the plunge. He may lose his job yes, but at least he has earned a clear conscience. And before any myopic clown says sleeping better at night won’t pay the bills. Understand that whatever good deed sown will be reaped, same goes for evil”
bentybenz: “School is not a scam. These ones just sacked themselves. You can only do this if you don’t get paid for your services there. You just lost your job just because of a 10 seconds video of you being f00lish. School is important”
shakagwase: “I don’t blame the elite who refuse to hire Nigerian helps. Nigerians just love to go into a place to demystify and expose everything happening there. We don’t need this information and there was absolutely no need to tell us this, mind the business that pays you and go home”
bbmaternity: “You are about to lose your jobs. And strict rules would be put in place! Work finish or not…. Are you being owed salaries???”
ugo_chicago: “Many of us know say work never finish, it’s 80% complete. Making this video is so unnecessary”
