A Nigerian clergyman,Gospel Agochukwu has generated a lot of discussion on social media for his views on the employer-employee relationship.
The pastor claimed that any worker who fails to show gratitude to their supervisor/boss after getting their salary is ungrateful in a Facebook post he published on Thursday, July 5.
He asserted that after collecting their pay at the end of the month, employees should express gratitude to their bosses.
He wrote;
“You are very ungrateful if you receive your salary and didn’t tell your boss thank you.”
His claim has ignited a heated discussion on social media, where many people disagree with his viewpoint.
