A Nigerian employer has revealed a troubling encounter involving her housekeeper’s husband, who shockingly asked that his wife be dismissed from her job because her salary had allegedly made her disrespectful.
The employer, who shared the experience on social media, explained that the woman in question is a dedicated worker and mother of four.
Her partner, however, is unemployed and not legally married to her. In a disturbing call, the man insisted that his wife should be fired, claiming that her financial independence had made her develop “pride.”
The man reportedly warned that if the employer did not terminate his partner’s employment, he would take matters into his own hands and “bring her down,” a veiled threat that has since raised concerns about the woman’s safety.
The employer’s post sparked widespread outrage online, with many people criticizing the man for his mindset and for trying to sabotage the only support system keeping his family afloat.
Despite not contributing financially, the man appeared more concerned about control than survival, even as the woman works hard to support their four children.
The situation has highlighted deeper issues of economic insecurity, gender imbalance, and the dangers some women face simply for becoming financially empowered in toxic relationships.
Many have urged the employer not only to protect the housekeeper’s job but to support her with stronger safeguards against possible domestic threats.
