A Nigerian employer has shared how the husband of her employee called to demand that his wife be fired, claiming her salary was making her "proud."
This revelation was made in a post shared on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The employer explained that the woman, who works as her housekeeper, has four children with the man-who is currently unemployed-and that they are not legally married.
According to the employer, the man said: "My housekeeper's husband called tonight to request that I fire her (his wife) because 'the money don make am get pride because I no get work. If you no sack am, I go sack her. She know where I from, I go bring am down.'"
The post quickly went viral, prompting a flood of reactions from concerned users in the comment section.
