A Nigerian businessman has gone viral after catching his apprentice red-handed stealing ₦1.2 million from his shop to buy four phones for his girlfriend—who happens to be the store’s cashier.
The furious employer confronted both the young man and the cashier in a now-viral video, where the woman was seen holding the brand-new phones purchased with stolen money. According to the businessman, the apprentice had been secretly taking cash from the business to shower his girlfriend with gifts.
During the heated confrontation, the businessman declared he would deduct the full ₦1.2 million cost of the phones from the apprentice’s ₦1 million settlement pay—leaving the young man with nothing after seven years of work. The apprentice begged for forgiveness, arguing that he had dedicated years of service, but his pleas fell on deaf ears.
The video has sparked intense debate online, with many criticizing the businessman’s harsh punishment, while others questioned why the apprentice was only set to receive ₦1 million after nearly a decade of work. Some viewers even speculated the entire situation might be staged to avoid paying the apprentice his full settlement.
