“It’s high time we stopped applying emotions in relating with our domestic staff” – Jide Awobona tells his colleagues as his staff steals $100 from him
Nollywood actor Jide Awobona has issued advice to his colleagues following an incident where one of his domestic staff stole $100 from his wallet.
He urged his colleagues to avoid letting emotions influence their interactions with staff, particularly in cases of theft, regardless of the amount. Reflecting on his own experience, he admitted to often overlooking issues until this recent theft occurred, with the staff member believing that stealing the money would significantly change his life.
The Yoruba actor advised his peers to let their workers perform their duties, receive their wages, and then move on, while emphasizing that they should not mistreat them.
“I think it’s high time we stopped applying emotions in relating with our domestic staff when they steal as small as chewing gum as this new one did, take it up (though I didn’t, gage warning) that’s how I overlooked a lot until the previous one stole $100 from my wallet after several Nairas I thought I misplaced or spent, thinking it will transform his life.

Do your work, get paid and move.
LET THEM DO THE JOB THEY ARE MEANT TO DO, GET PAID AND MOVE , DON’T MALTREAT THEM.
THOUGH WE GO AS FAR AS GIVING CLOTHES, FOOD AND ALL, BUT DON’T APPLY EMOTIONS , I REALISED THEY DON’T LOVE YOU AS MUCH AS YOU LOVE THEM OR TRY TO LOVE THEM”.
