@BBCCareers kindly furnish names and physical address of those who told @kikimordi, a freelancer that I was "asked to leave" the BBC?
We'll need to do this in an EU court of law, if LIES are peddled for damage control.
Note, I have recordings& emails.
Send to meyerruona@gmail.com ImageImage
The response to seeking a non-repeat of unethical practices cannot and will never be to broadcast lies against my person.
For a day like this, I am thankful I made audio and email archives.
Thankfully, I am a German citizen who was recruited from Germany.
Therefore, @BBCCareers, expect me to use the law to its full extent.
Of that, you all can be sure.
Asked to leave...yet contracted, months after I resigned?
Get ready, @kikimordi and co.
You tried the wrong tactic. Image

AUGUST WILL ALWAYS COME BEFORE DECEMBER

Journalism, for all its bells and whistles, shiny business models, is fundamentally built on honour. 
None of the big offices, fancy equipment will matter, if the humans are not humane.
That it was only in December you saw a call made since August, only because I amplified its contents, shows you exactly the problem, that a call has to exist, since August.
No one has to have to leave the system, and unwittingly seek a voice online, if the humans within the system had honour. 
 
Humans make the system. 
Where a system somehow leaves a person with no choice but to cry out online, only the humans indicted can make it right.

Based on recent events, fellow 🇳🇬ns, try to be sensitive when tweeting/reporting that people died via suicide.
Doesn't matter if it's true or not - you must ensure ur mode doesn't intrude on privacy or grief. Add details of @MentallyAwareNG if real intention was to give support.
Note to journos:
By media standards, the only justification for revealing suicide as a cause of death & associated details (esp when some family members haven't heard), is if in the public interest/awareness.
All media put helplines.
We now have @MentallyAwareNG so, NO EXCUSE.
If your tweet or news article doesn't contain information such as below, I'm conscience-bound to tell you that all you did was sensationalism & add to the grief of the deceased's family, without even helping the public tangibly.
There is help. Amplify it.

@kikimordi an honourable journo ALWAYS shares the ENTIRE comversation.
On 18 August?
YOU, entered my DM.
Clearly, lying is oxygen.
A terrible thing for anyone entrusted with the stories of the voiceless.
You're what is called an OPPORTUNISTIC PATHOGEN in Microbiology.
Nwa mkpi!
When you came sucking up, I told you POINT-BLANK, to do the right thing.
I then told you the bit you put up here and said 👍.
But na you na. Indomie career.
Agenda must agend so you put half stories for the dummies you perform for.
Anyone who can tell half-truths, pretend to fight for credit while denying others is a disgrace to journalism.
Period.

Lmao Nkiru Mordi @kikimordi in true fashion.
Hushpuppi of journalism.
YOU called me, as recommended by C of Africa Eye & BEGGED me for tips on what I did to maintain SEO.
If u applied yourself To this profession you'd KNOW external clicks redirect away from ur site.
Journ 101.
When you could not afford decent Internet in London, I called you back, and this is the clout you are chasing.
Face the questions:
Did you pitch the story? Get the source?
Are you not the one mentioned in formal complaints and threads?
Have you ever offered to share prize money?
There is a reason my call took so long, and you @kikimordi will never have the honour to say why.
You could not explain how you got chosen for the role.
I told you to GO BACK TO SCHOOL.
Learn the work.
I gave you the link to a scholarship & gave contacts, even. But you too dull.

Yoo a bitch is NEGATIVE for COVID and positive for balling!
😎 Image
All of this was due to isolation.
When Herr Meyer returned from his biz trip, we maintained our usual precautions; no welcome hugs without him showering, washing all in his luggage & I actually did not kiss him full on.
Since COVID, we also sleep with windows open, winter or not.
Two days later, briefly lost his sense of smell, so we got tested and raised precautions.
He moved to a spare room, and every few hours we opened all doors and windows in the house, winter or not.
He wore a mask at all times he needed the kitchen and we sanitised surfaces more.

FLASH!
Nigerian embassy in Germany terminates staff caught on camera for sexual misconduct.

As sent:
THE Embassy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has terminated with immediate effect the contract of Mr Martins Adedeji Oni, a security officer at the mission.
His dismissal follows an investigation into allegations of corruption and sexual misconduct.

Mr Oni was suspended from duty on 17 November after reports emerged that he had curried sexual favours in return for help with the renewal of a passport.
The Embassy immediately established an Investigation Committee to examine the allegations and any related issues, and to make recommendations for action.

The Committee interviewed Mr Oni and other witnesses as part of a thorough examination of these very serious charges.
