Drama as Housemaid Caught Wearing Boss’ Clothes Fakes Fainting
A domestic worker has sparked outrage online after she was allegedly caught red-handed wearing her employer’s clothes and recording dance videos while the latter was hospitalised.
In a now-viral video, the teenage maid was confronted by her boss and, in a shocking twist, dramatically pretended to faint in a bid to avoid punishment. Eyes Of Lagos reports,
How It Happened
According to reports shared by @househelp_reviews, the maid had been living carefreely during her employer’s two-week hospital stay.
Instead of managing the household, she allegedly:
-
Left the home in disarray
-
Neglected basic chores such as cleaning and washing dishes
-
Indulged in eating and dumping leftover food
The employer further accused her of stealing items from the house and sending them to her aunt’s residence.
Upon returning from the hospital and discovering the situation, the boss threatened to call the police. It was at that point the maid suddenly pretended to collapse.
Outrage on Social Media
The footage has since generated heated conversations across Nigerian social media. Many condemned the maid’s behaviour, while others highlighted the challenges of trust and accountability in domestic work.
