First, they have no business with your guarantor, Your guarantor can only be arrested in the event that you cannot be found. You can be arrested for stealing , ( my not so lawyerly opinion) clear out your account, when u get to the police station, tell the officers you were robbed off your money, you can only pay their money if they pay your salary. Go to the station with a lawyer and a reliable surety so you won't be detend more than necessary. All the best to you. |

Go and file a petition at the office of the public defender (OPD) or National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). Thats the fastest and the most suitable means to handle such industrial disputes. |

01Alpha: The police might probably turn the table around him unless he has money to spend for them...They will rather fight for their pocket(which the firm can provide) than human. |

owomida1:Op should itemise all monies wth him as running expense and still demand for his salary. Let the company be the ones to tell him that he is not entittled to the expenses allowance there and then he should ask them to deduct it from his salary and pay him the balance. Where on earth can somebody owing another ask to be paid first when their own debt is higher. 1 Like |

Thank you to everyone who have express their opinion either in support or against my action. One area I have developed myself over the years is in being dilligent in whatever I do and I try as much as possible to justify whatever reward I demand from anybody with my works. A labourer is entitled to his wages. My employers cannot bring a report against me that I am lazy. Like I said before I used to go out of my way to make productions for my firm. If I am not hardworking there is no way i would be indebted to them that much. It baffles me, how in this country an employee would go five to six months without pay and your employee is jealous, he does not want you to have other jobs. What exactly should the employee be feeding on during the months of no salary? stone I guess. People saying I could have resigned, could not the employer too have sacked me? Why keep using people to get your job going without any plan in place to pay them? Like I have said before the firm is notorious for cheating their employees. People work for nine months without pay, they eventually pay four out of five and tell you brazenly to forget the remaining five or head to court. Is that not cruel and dehumanising. I am only still talking of salaries being owed me. There are outstanding allowances yet to be paid for over a year. Also pension deductions have not been remitted into my pension account for over a year. Sad that we learnt that our problem starts from board level where top management staffs have been diverting what is due to us to themselves. So it is a situation of monkey dey work baboon dey chop. I refuse to be enslaved by anybody or firm in this 21st century oo, lai lai 1 Like |

Justnora:my dear, it seems u are the kind of employer that owe her staff this callous way. Ur advice is very wrong. OP, I am not a lawyer but I have this to say. First of all, u are wrong to withhold their money, u can be arrested for that. But u have already done it so hold on to it but keep it intact. Secondly, ensure u have a written and binding employment contract. Get a lawyer sue them to court for non payment of ur salary. Do it quickly before they make any move, and while at it, get a court injunction preventing them from arresting ur guarantors pending when they appear in court and resolve the issue of ur salary. This will incapacitate them and they will settle with u quickly. U shud however remember that u used their equipment to work for them, they can charge u a very high amount as equipment hiring cost and ask that u pay for it since u are holding on to their money as yours. My brother, they Wilt actually be on the right in that regard |

My brother you will go places, you will be successful, may your days be long. I swear, they can't do anything, if they do they will end up embarrassed and ashamed. They cannot do anything, tell them to sue you to court, in fact, they cannot arrest them, all those things are only threats. Something like that has happened to a friend of mine in Abuja, he was sent on an errand, and he withheld the money and left without looking back, he was owed 5months, he only told them to balance up that he's not interested in the job anymore. The only difference is that there was no guarantor, he even threatened the boss to expose him on Facebook which will affect his name and the company. Hold and stand your ground, you can write the boss a letter and give deadline. 2 Likes |
