Pres. Jonathan orders police to investigate case of pregnant factory worker beaten by Lebanese boss

I have a strong feeling Alice will get justice soon. This can never be tolerated. And all companies paying below Nigeria's minimum wage should be investigated too. Alice was earning a meager N12k a month, and lost her baby on top of it? We need to find this woman.

    2. Yeah nice! But this is the kinda thing he should have asked his first lady to handle since she's always doing and saying the wrong stuff.
      So,Rueben Abati and Mr. President, you have tried but those are the kinda stuff for office of the first lady. Do other stuff for us like #constantelectricityfor 2014. WE ARE OVERDUE! Mtcheeeeww

    3. That's a good one from the president. But most companies pay less dan that and still oppress their workers and they ain't Nigerians. They'r everywhr in my area, it's bcos of d situation of things in this country. He shld solve all once and all.

    4. That's praiseworthy. The evil this kura or whatever rubbish name they call them do is getting out of hand. Heard foreign companies especially from Asia maltreat Nigerians as slave. Yes, they have this mind set of slavery. We must teach this one a lesson. They must abide by the law of our land.

      Let me keep watching curiously for it outcome.

    5. Just wonder what what useless Naija police force have been doing since the news broke out about the issue. So Mr. president must always give order for any little thing?

    5. catcha is right, the president should not give order before such thing to be done, it is the right of the nigerian police. But police will collect money say that the lebannese employer is doing the right thing. With money nigerian police are useless. Am not sorry to say this because we have seen various issue with stupid police. Success key

  16. The lebanese boss should be deprted and his citizenship renounced that is if he has become a Nigerian citizen by naturalization or registration. Its one thing to be ill treated in our own land by our own people, but its embrassing to let a foreigner do it and go scot free!

  19. ...Can never be tolerated in any civilized society. Being a boss does not give the right to mistreat your subordinate colleagues. It is gross infringement on her natural human rights, an abuse on a woman, defied labour ethics, loss of unborn child.
    She could have died..let alone the psychological effects this will bring to her.
    its a total disrespect for the laws of the land.
    this indeed MUST be investigated.

  20. Very good.... He should be a scape goat and a reminder to those men/employers that feels its just ok to abuse people physically. The earlier people start standing up for their right in this country the better and stop this 'anything goes' way of life. Issh

  60. to be honest,I don't think this woman will get any justice. Have we all forgotten that these lebanese people can bribe their way out of this situation? have we all forgotten that this isn't the first tragic case in this country? don't we know that the president is capable of forgetting and wading off this issue?... How many times has jonathan promised justice and kept to it?... It's such a pity that this woman still suffers in her own country under a foreigner will a black person ever treat a white person this way in his own country? even if that happens, the law enforcement officials will take this case very seriously but in this case, our own officials were bribed. This is such a pity GOD HELP NIGERIA!

    He hit d pregnant woman on d belly n she lost her baby: 3rd - murder charge.

  63. Does the Presidency need to give an order before the Police would be aware they should investigate. This is not part of the work of the Presidency.
    Hope that man is punished according to the laws of Nigeria. I dont understand why we let every foreigner into Nigeria, most are just here exploiting us in our home.

  64. When Jonathan tell you he is investigating something or tell you he is setting up committees to investigate anything, that translate to NOTHING.

    Yes, NOTHING.

    Any Nigerian, born and unborn who does not know that, need to have his or her head examined

    Only God knows how many investigations Jonathan has ordered without him doing anything about the result of those investigations.
    Committees upon committees that he set up and refused to do anything about the findings of those committees.

    An employer assaulted one of his employees and Jonathan started shouting through his mouth-piece that he just ordered the police to investigate the assault.

    Seriously; give me a break.

    This Jonathan need to park his bags and just go.
    Some times i wonder, how do we prevent jokers like this Jonathan from ever leading us again.
    Jonathan is a big JOKE.

    If our leaders are really serious[ that includes the gov of Lagos who has refused to even acknowledge the case of EJIGBO 2 up till now], that Lebanese would have been arrested, handcuffed, his picture shown to everybody to see and by now he will be sitting in jail about to be prosecuted.

    How dare you leave your war-raged country, come here and start assaulting us? How dare you?

    It is not your fault. It is the fault of our leaders.

    Can anybody tell me what happens to the case when the freaking Lebanese or Indians[they also treat Nigerians poorly] settle the police?

    Your answer is as good as mine.
    The case will be swept under the rug as usual and Jonathan will then refuse to talk about the case again.

    Setting up committees and refusing to do anything afterward is the trade mark of our 'once-shoeless president.

    The only thing he does best is junketing all over the world in one his numerous presidential fleet of jets[ He has TEN aircrafts in his fleet] while leaving his job undone at home.

    Oh God, how i still wish i can take my vote back and throw it into the Akoka lagoon because that Lagoon deserves my vote better than this character called Jonathan.

  81. Commendable effort by d president. But d lebanese company shuldnt bear d brunt of d crime alone. D police officers dt didn't make any arrest Shuld be investigated and discharged. D police officers dt dissmissed d family of d lady from d company ground Shuld also be discharged. D superior officers dt Culdnt be reached 2 make a statement Shuld also be discharged 4 lack of accountability as public officers. Enough is enough of pple not doing their jobs and making life difficult 4 average nigerians. From civil 2 public service it's a common trend. hence d hardship we face in dis country. Jonathan. Can't do everything 4 us. We need 2 be responsible as citizens. Can't be crying 4 gud leaders when we as a pple r negligent and corrupt. We only elect bad leaders cos we r a bad pple according 2 obj s daughter. And she s really on point with dt. We need d change 2 start from us.
