This is nothing but unfair attacks on Jana Metge. CNIA was running nicely UNTIL she was illegally fired by a new Board of Directors who were installed as part of coup by Basim Sabri. She was fired first at an illegal meeting by the new directors, some of who had not even met her, this meeting was boycotted by responsible board members who believed the meeting was illegal.
When a legal transition of power was made, at which time many of the remaining old board resigned, they did it again without regard to employee rights or law. That same board was sued by former employees for not being paid when they too were fired without review. The current situation at CNIA is the responsibility of the Board of Directors NOT Jana Metge.
