The First Claim
In relation to the first claim, case number 3200656/2015, my initial is wrongly stated as “S” in the title of the Reserved Judgment dated 19 August 2016. I have written to the Employment Tribunal and politely asked that the error be corrected and that they issue “Certificate of Correction”. I am still awaiting the correction of my initial.
The wrong initial aside, my full name “Adekunle Adewale” is clearly stated at paragraph 26 in the Reserved Judgment. I did not appeal the Reserved Judgment and neither did the Respondents.
Continuous Race Discrimination and Victimisation
I do not believe the initial “S” to be a typing error. I believe the initial “S” to be “Sambo” and that it was intentional. In other words I am “Sambo Adewale” as opposed to “Adekunle Adewale” as clearly stated by the Employment Judge at paragraph 26.
“Sambo" is an offensive and derogatory racial slur - a contemptuous term for a black person. It is on a par with “Nigger”. In England in 1970s, Black people were called “Sambo”.
Notwithstanding my requests to have the initial “S” amended, it was not amended and I never received notification that the initial “S” was ever amended.
