Speaking on the matter, MTN Nigeria’s Chief Human Resources Officer, Esther Akinnukawe said that for over 2 decades, it has built a ‘people first’ culture that values diversity, inclusivity, and hard work, adding that all its employees are at liberty to exercise their right to free association.

“We have stringent policies in place that promote meritocracy and protect our employees from all forms of harassment and discrimination and create a workplace where employees feel valued and safe,” Akinnukawe said.

What you should know

Nairametrics reported earlier that PTECSSAN has threatened to embark on a strike, and disrupt the services of MTN Nigeria if their union demands are not met, citing that MTN has ignored the recommendations of its workers despite FG’s intervention.

Union President, Mr Opeyemi Tomori said MTN has ignored demands of the union, despite the Labour Ministry’s interventions, adding that it has become inevitable that the union issues a 14-day ultimatum to alert the public of imminent industrial action.
