Nigerian Widow Cries After Company Deducts N47k From Her N50k Salary
A Nigerian widow has been left in tears after her employer deducted almost her entire salary because she stayed home to care for her sick child.
The woman, who works as a cleaner and earns N50,000 monthly, was shocked when only N3,000 was paid into her account. She had missed work for some days while her youngest child was unwell, but despite informing her company, she was issued a query and fined heavily. The deduction left her unable to provide for her four children, and in frustration, she cried out during church service.
In a surprising turn, her pastor called her out in front of the congregation and blessed her with N100,000 and a POS machine to help her start a small business. Touched by her story, members of the church contributed another N100,000, raising the total to N200,000.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
