Laid-off employees at Twitter's Africa headquarters are accusing Twitter of 'deliberately and recklessly flouting the laws of Ghana' and trying to 'silence and intimidate' them after they were fired.

Laid-off employees at Twitter’s Africa headquarters are accusing Twitter of “deliberately and recklessly flouting the laws of Ghana” and trying to “silence and intimidate” them after they were fired. The team has hired a lawyer and sent a letter to the company demanding it comply with the West African nation’s labor laws, provide them with additional severance pay and other relevant benefits, in line with what other Twitter employees will receive.

Twitter informed the Ghana-based employees in early November that they would be paid until their last day of employment — December 4. And they will continue to receive full pay and benefits during the 30-day notice period. “It was very vague, did not talk about outstanding leave or paid time off, and just asked us to sign if we agree.

😳…. What am I missing? Twitter is an American Company subjected 2 American laws. Employees would have been appointed under those terms & conditions. Musk was clear on the eradication of ‘bots’ -serves no purpose in AI; was clear on ‘return to work’, work, loyalty & ethics.

I am not a fan boy... I don't believe in Elon Musk rather the sum of his accomplishments

LarryMadowo These same Ghanaian folks that were already behaving like little gods, doling Twitter blue badges to their friends in the media whilst refusing to verify long established journalists with proven track records. Now, see life 😁🤣😂

What goes around comes around
