Yesterday, at his 5th Energy Group GMD Conference in Abuja, Jimoh Ibrahim had unexpected guests. Some workers from his media companies arrived to protest non-payment of their salaries.
Jimoh Ibrahim reacted by firing managing director of Newswatch Media Ltd, Bolu Afolayan during the event which was broadcast live on AIT.
Speaking on the issue he said: “These are staff of the National Mirror who cannot generate their own salary, and they expect the company to make money from the company to pay them. Is that practically okay? That is not possible. I have said it that any arm of the group that cannot generate money to pay its salary would be shut down.”
Here’s how people reacted to the incident Twitter:
Jimoh Ibrahim’s strategy has backfired. His staffs are protesting over unpaid salaries on his energy group summit which is aired LIVE on AIT

To treat journalists the way Jimoh Ibrahim has done for years is height of insanity. To allow him owe one for 18 months is unbelievable.

Jimoh Ibrahim is a sorry excuse for a boss, talk less of a leader. Ashamed to think that to some, he embodies business success.

There was a time in my life I prayed to God to let me work for Jimoh Ibrahim. Wanted to work at Global Fleet. God answered by not answering
