Nakumatt Suspends Striking workersI thought this was the time to be humble and treat the loyal employees very well, just in case they are poached by competitors. African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

And this didn't set off alarms? Did any creditor cash out cause this would have been delicious....or is it a vehicle setup by insiders to take money out of the company? Devil on a bicycle! Wow.
