This news has been going round since last month but the heat is getting
deeper on social media. Protest has been going on in Enugu, Lagos and some
other states.
Telecoms giant Globacom Ltd, popularly referred to as Glo, has
been accused of mass-sacking members of staff who are female and married.
The former staff members have
alleged that although a few men and single ladies were also let go, married
women were the most affected. As we are speaking, legal action is being taken
against glo to ensure they are compensated for the alleged
discrimination.

An unverified document shared by Twitter user @duchesskk showed that of 97 women sacked by Glo, only
4 were single, while the rest were married. See the documents here.

Globacom has in the
recent past let go of employees, both male and female, married and single, due
to performance issues. It is not true that this was restricted to married women
alone.

Do you know any one that is affected by this sack?
Wack network. been hearing this shii for a long time
Hmmm glo which business do u have with single women? Do u want to marry them? So people should not marry again because they want to work with glo.
This is bad. I heard the news last week and i saw a copy of letter of employment termination issued to a glo staff. The authority concerned should call glo to order
Going by what i heard, it is not just even the sacking that is bothering them, that they weren't settled or given any gratuity
Glo is just a joke
I don't know anybody of,Today you are gainfully employed, the next day you are sacked.. I wish them all these best in their next endeavours
Me I think recession is really hitting hard on them…since they are losing customers..they might think its right for them to let go of some staffs
….just my own opinion
I don't know anybody. Anyway, I expected them to refute the claims
I heard this news a long time ago and wasnt really surprised cos i know its always easier getting jobs as a single lady than as a married woman. There is more to it than we read on papers…
Being ones boss is just the best option there is
Glo are declining gradually
Imagine I don't even think their 1gb is upto 200mb sef.
Zapping people's data
Working for adenuga has always been like this, his companies hire and fire at will. Right from conoil ,his defunct equitorial trust bank, and globacom,they are all the same.
even if they did layoff that much married women, there ought to be a reason for that. they can't lay off every married woman on their payroll, there certainly must be a reason
Glo should just fold up biko. Glo has failed Nigerians .
not a good news
I think they have come out to categorically deny this report as being unfounded
Rubbish network, all they know is to have many ambassadors
Glo i no understand oh. What type of news is this.
Glo has denied the torí
common thus unfair….. Glo should sort it out
Network no good but dem sabi sack people anyhow
if its based on performance then Nigerians should have sacked you long time ago. Why not improve on your services to motivate your employees into performing bettter>
Glo and their wahala
