Some staffs of a Multinational Supermarket in Ibadan, Shoprite, have staged a peaceful protest over the decision of the management to handover the affairs of the shop to a new company without arrangement for staff. 

While Some of them carried placards with different inscription such as “5-10 years without promotion and you want to abandon us” “No handover till pay off” and “we must be settled by Shoprite before they run”, others sang solidarity songs.
