Kuda Technologies Limited and its CEO, Babatunde Ogundeyi are currently embroiled in a legal dispute in a UK court, with accusations of sex discrimination, victimisation, and unfair dismissal brought by its former Group Chief People Officer (O), Rosemary Hewat.

Hewat filed a case in UK Employment Tribunal accusing the company of victimization and forced dismissal in April 2024.

Kuda provides digital banking services in Nigeria and UK. In Nigeria, the company owns Kuda Microfinance Bank licensed Bank of Nigeria.

Kuda hired Hewat in August 2021 where she managed global HR operations from Kuda’s UK office.


Based on the court filing, Hewat alleged that she faced discriminatory behavior that contradicted Kuda’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policy.

News360 Nigeria reports that she also accused Kuda CEO, Babatunde Ogundeyi of undermining her and fostering misogyny and intimidation.

In the filing, she alleged that in a retreat in Lagos in December 2023, the CEO called two female employees “low class” and accused them of lacking “quality or luxury.”

She alleged that the comment left the two women in tears.

She further detailed how the company’s action induced financial hardship on her.

She sought compensation for unfair dismissal, sex discrimination, and emotional distress.

This case has led to debate over workplace leadership.

The CEO of Triangle Forces, Jurgen Proschinger said via his X handle @triangleforces, “These allegations highlight critical issues around workplace equality and leadership ability. Companies need to uphold values that foster an inclusive environment for all employees.

The Founder of CAUHEC, Elaina McAdams in her reaction said, “It’s important to address these serious allegations for the integrity of all involved.”

Those people can file a lawsuit over the most frivolous thing?

I wonder how she is going to prove in court that a careless disparaging comment made to two other female employees during a retreat (Assuming it's even true) caused her to suffer financial loss

Europeans with their entitlement mentality, even the Nigerian women he called low class didn't sue him.

This order allegation is laughable😂😂:

"She further detailed how the company’s action induced financial hardship on her."

Na her first time to get sacked?

half your brain is contaminated with saw dust , the ceo isn’t being sued for rape, the descendant of jezebel is suing him because he called them low class which in many cases they are.. if a judge should award fine to against the ceo then the judge should be arrested and charge for abuse of law.

They brought their reckless behavior into a lawful society, thinking they can misbehave without consequences. They'll pay heavily until they're bankrupt.

Oh my God you supposed to be ban here permanently.


So sex decrimination nit even proven yet now a rape? Are you mad.

So the Anambra pastor that rape his own daughter sometime ago is a Yoruba maan?

The recent rape case n Enugu few weeks ago is also a Yoruba man?

Pls think before you talk stop talking as if you are insane.

Pls it's too early to be stupid , stop it and grow up..

The guy is the boss he can terminate anybody he want and if redundancy need to be paid he should be made to pay it, its his company. Uu can't accused him and judgement when court hasn't confirmed it as an offense.
