Whistle blower: The case of Air Nigeria’s John Nnorom
One
day after the Dana Air crash of June 3, John Nnorom, a former executive of Air
Nigeria disclosed to public what might really lead to this air crash tragedy.
The whistle blower blamed the chairman of the organization named Jimoh Ibrahim of not taking serious the
matter of maintenance of planes of the
company rather used the fund for his personal use. John Nnorom
said a huge amount of money that is N35 billion which was taken as loan
to finance Air Nigeria is also took
another routine and invested in NICON
Investment Ldt, mostly known as Wonder Bank. Engineers of same company were
also forced to allow planes that were not supposed to fly and went on for
strike because of this inhuman behavior by their manager.
But
Air Nigeria denied what was said by the whistle-blower. They also said Nnorom
did not know anything about maintenance of aircraft before his dismissal from
the company. Air Nigeria called on the public at large to disregard the
sabotage of the company. The company is trying not to compromise their
integrity and keep up the good reputation they used to have because such horrible
catastrophe never happens to them, no accident and no emergency landing.
Two different stories are mentioned above, which one true?
If the
whistle blower allegations are real, Government agencies would thoroughly investigate
the airline. If it happens to be wrong, the question would be for what reason
or gain would he do such a thing? But if he is guilty for his action charges
would be against him. However being guilty does not mean that the person is
lying because criminals may state the truth and honest people can lie.
Currently
the investigation is still on process and I will keep on updating if there is
any other vital information.

Ecuador and corruption
Base on corruption index, Ecuador is among the most corrupted country in the world. narrowly we have two factors contributing negatively to this.
Economic development
Government instability in the country has a serious impact in the economy which could discourage potential investors. And it also said that the country is facing a balance of trade because of its heavy dependance on primary merchandises for export. meaning while without sustenance from external investors, is more likely that the country would not be able to grow more profitable.
This is also another strong example of liability to the economic development of Ecuador. media reported allegedly the business man, the brother of president signed public sector contract to corporation. but the president invalidated the contract.
pubic sector wages

pubic sector wages
Pubic sector wages seems to be very poor. 60 percent of economically active Ecuadorian turns to be informal economy for employment . Informal workers, rather support themselves by
working for small businesses or vending things illegitimately (without licenses
or revenue reports to the state) in city areas or marketplace than working for
the state or standard private body.Vendors arrange kiosks in town and sell stuffs to passers-by.
The shortage of money has led to kid labor. Children shin shoes or vending
candy on the roads to support their parents' income.
All
these could explain why the country is so corrupted.and it is a
strong brake to economic growth. Several methods could be put into
consideration to eradicate the problems. Then it would bring potential
investors, create employment and many more development which would transform the
country positively and wipe out corruption completely.
Ethics comes from the Greek word ethos meaning character.
Ethics is a set of principle of right conduct or amoral guide which govern good behavior.
So behaving morally is doing what is right.But one's should bear in mind that acting or behaving ethically is not quite the same thing as behaving lawfully.
