I Was Sacked For Carrying Out My Duty by yemite100: 5:53am On Feb 16, 2022
Good day Nairalanders,

I work as a security officer in a community, I usually work from 7:00am - 3pm in a secondary school, and also resume night duty by 7pm in a community close to my house
The landlord association gave us a warning that we must check all cars coming in and going out of the estate and we have been performing our duties in a polite way..
About 11:35pm last night, we heard the horn of a strange car requesting that we should open the gate, I switch on my touch to check those inside the car, it was three abled young men and lady inside the car, in a polite way I ask them where they are heading to and they mentioned a popular rich man in the community, as usual, I told them to open the booth of there car which they refused to open, I told them to drive back to where they are coming from but before I could know what's happening,. They got down from the car and threathing to deal with us if the gate is not opened...they forced the gate open and drove inside the community,my colleague we're just watching the whole scenario as I drag issues with them...
I don't know the report they gave the chairman of the landlords association, they just got to our checkpoint this morning and told me I have been fired without paying me off, I told them I haven't done anything wrong and was just carrying out my duties,I was told never to come close to the area again or else I will be arrested.
I left there in annoyance, I was only carrying out my duties but now I have been Sacked for carrying out order...
I don't know what this country is turning to again...

When God wants to take you to greater heights, it starts like this. You have been pushed away from your comfort zone without doing anything to warrant such.

Trust me Bro, you close to a turn around point.

You should have asked for the report they gave the landlords and try explaining your side of the story to them too. But why was it only you they sacked while leaving the other guy cos you didn't talk about him getting sacked or not.

So the way they treat gatemen in Nollywood in Nigeria is really true?... I thought that it was just to entertain people...

They should realise that there's dignity in labour... No matter the job.. what about fair hearing... They dismissed u just like that without hearing from u?...

That was an unfair dismissal honestly... They should have heard your own side of the story no matter how inappropriate it was... Is there no OMBUDSMAN in Nigeria or something?.. or does that organisation treat only big shots in the society?

Why not go to the police station to make some report, probably the police will invite the chairman of the Estate to establish what really happened

Bros tell yourself the truth, you were not polite. Obviously you must have been notoriously harassing visitors and residents traversing the security post. This must be the reason you were singled out for sack.

Don't worry, you would get something better than that.

Something like that happened to me when I was teaching in a private secondary school which was paying me N18,000.

The school proprietor said there should be no flogging and punishment of students.

We were trying to control the students without flogging, punishing or shouting on them and you know it is not easy.


One day, he came to my class and heard the students making noise.

Without warning, he went and brought sack letters to me and another teacher saying we cannot control our classes. He erroneously believed a teacher's presence should make all students quiet and that even when you are not beating or punishing them, they should all be quiet. But that was not the case in that school. Most of the classes that were quiet, the teachers there secretly beat or punished the students.


Although I started working in another school almost immediately after the sack, I made up my mind to go for further studies which I did.


The new school allowed us a little freedom to go outside the school and I used the opportunity to go for further studies.

I later resigned completely to face my studies.


Now, God has blessed me with a lecturing job and it's because of that sack because I would have still stayed there since the school doesn't allow you to go anywhere, not to talk of starting a Master degree


When last I went to the school, most of the teachers who were my colleagues are still there.

I felt so much pity for you reading this.

If you feel so aggrieved, maybe you could take your case up with the authorities

Or else... you can simply walk away.

Wow ,maybe it's the way u approach them. your temperament while interacting with them, I have learnt in life never to pass judgement just from one side of the story ,though u might be doing your job well, your choice of words are very important, when they told you about the person they want to see ,the best thing will be to contact the big man ,whatever he says will determine your next move and if your colleagues refused to come to your side during the early stage of the argument, it means to put it mildly u are not on the same page with them ,which means some character issues, for the fact that those boys succeeded to enter the estate after all you did, means u guys are incompetent, what if those boys were hired assassins, they would have carried out their mission even with your presence at the gate.u should work on your manner of approach, it will help u in future
