Thornley Myers, CEO of VINLEC
Thornley Myers, the Chief Executive Officer of VINLEC, has been unceremoniously sent on seven weeks compulsory vaction leave! That is the story making the rounds these days.
Apparently, Myers had something of a confrontation with an influential member of the board over differences about which security firm should be contracted to guard VINLEC’s facilities. He is said to have objected against a firm with which this influential board member is associated citing “conflict of interest”.
This board member wanted VINLEC to pass the security services over to a firm that offers “premium” service. Thornley objected. He claimed that it would be tantamount to a conflict of interest. Furthermore, the firm in question has a questionable record of service.
For standing on principle, Thornley Myers was sent home! Who next?

Its seems surprising to this writer that Thornley has been sent home for supposedly standing his grounds. Did this writer had the same concerns when the PM allegedly had an employee of the said institution, for two weeks no pay leave for doing her job when she had one of his constituents disconnected for no paying her bill. What did Thornley do then.
