I have never ever been to a courtroom. Who knew our courts and legal system were established on sentiments and morality? wink

I hear you.



You are already wired to fear your employer. Good luck getting used everywhere you go.

Now this is the best advice. it happened to me In 2008. Make a full written honest account as per the debt you owed them. from the final balance deduct your salaries and entitlements. write the balance, sign and submit it to the company and keep a copy. Let them know the document is copied by writing CC. copy your guarantors and submit copies to them.
they will think twice before taking any step against you.

God bless u. He shd also include a copy of his employment letter where they promise to pay for his services monthly and they breach.

Nooooo. I'm in Kano, so there is no way I can assist him. This is a criminal case, try to settle it out of court. Go and meet your manager and apologize and remit all the money.

Only 1 thing smells all over you. And it is just one word.

A crime that is not written down in any Act of the Legislative arm of government cannot be a crime.
My knowledge so far is that withholding salary or failure to pay salary is not a crime, until you can show otherwise. The company has committed no crime. I will be glad if you do, my knowlwdge is fairly limited.

Unfortunately, his situation is unfair and morally unjust but it is what it is. You will not be there for him when they handcuff him. You will not offer to stand for him in jail while he is awaiting his arraignment and bail hearing. He does not have the financial capability of his company. This is Nigeria. His company can hurt him more than he can hurt them and there won't be a single consequence.



You still don't get it. It will never get to that extent of being cuffed or jailed. He never held anything while his salary was intact. This is a clear consequence of the company's actions. It is clearly stated on his employment letter what date and how much his salary would be paid. They breached that contract first(unless you disagree that an employment letter is a binding contract between the employer & employee), which led to his actions. There are so many defences he could put up. Psychological excuses come first. OP could have a dying relative that needs financial care.
The list goes on and on. I am sure you have never witnessed a court proceeding by the way you respond to this issue.

It is in your best interest to brief a Labour Lawyer.

The following is a not a legal advice, it is a mere opinion.


I believe your firm cannot arrest your guarantors. They have committed no crime. A lawyer will be in a better position to tell them that NOT you. Get a laeyer to write to your company. However, they could arrest you for stealing which is a crime. So if I were you, I will actually speak to a lawyer in his office and inform my guarantors of my predicament, relinquish whatever company properties I have with me and run.

[s]I don't think withholding salary is a crime in Nigeria[/s]. You did not handle the situation well according to your write up. You should have resigned rather than held on their money.

I will not advise you to sue either. They may retaliate by reporting you for theft, I dont think you want a criminal charge. Besides, litigation can take forever and unless you earn a lot, it is advisable you just let it go.


Like I said, speak to a Lawyer. Don't make your situation worse by continuing to take matters into your own hand.

You made marginal sense. Not every crime is listed under the constitution. What about moral rights? His expenses which clearly needs to cater for but is being deprived? I swear nothing will happen to the OP. As long as all the money obtained is documented and well detailed, the company should strike a deal with him. If u owe me 2 months salary, I will lift items from the office directly. Let them accuse me of theft. What happened to employee rights in this country self? how would u say it's not a crime. If they want who will work without pay, let them employ their family members.

Bro, hold on to the money tight

They can't do anything to your guarantors. I repeat,it is an empty threat. I am not a lawyer but I've been there before.

They should sue you to court if they have a legal standing in this case too. Tell them like that, in fact, let your guarantors know what you have done so everyone is aware. No shaking oh, unless u are a weakling.

Keep oral evidences too, in case it blows out of proportion. A few sacked employees from there too would come handy.

That was how my dad deposited $50 in his dom acct one yr like dat. We trekked home and saw $5k alert.

Sharply we went to another branch and took out $500. At that period we actually wanted to use the $50 for betting. We used the $500 and made money but the teller called after 2 days to plead for a return of the funds. Dad returned it after 1 month.

Those bankers are heartless for not appreciating your gesture. if na me I no go spend am but they will beg taya for it. In 6 months I will return their money.
