Hi ma'am,I was just minding my business on Facebook when I came across this on my time line.This is a clear n deliberate act of child abuse, I have siblings of this age n don't allow then do certain chores say more of being a house help n been transported to ibadan. My point is a child ranging from 12 to 15 years can offer little or no help n it's not a way of assisting d child's family. Child labour must stop.What do you think about her requesting for a 12-15 year old girl as a house help?

DeleteAwww just found out she's even a friend and someone I know very well, she's desperately in need of it was y she had it up there. She's such a nice n caring person to say d least. Her intentions are quite genuine
DeleteIt's now u know she's good at heart, wen u didnt know she was ur friend she was Wicked, it's this kind of thing that kills nigeria. I will sue her to court n report if she doesn't take it down
DeleteGND@ am gonna tell u d truth, cos dats what I do most of the time...shame on you...so all of a sudden u av a soft spot for d lady and it no logger barbaric, after allowing a clear case of filaga to cloud Ur judgement.... Maybe she shud actually be sued and u too sued for supporting her abi, let's call a spade a spade...
DeleteFoolish sisi like you. Re u sure u are a man?
Delete@GND he's a woman. All men up here has said wat they will say has since gone to bed but he's fooling himself up here. How sure are we that he's not related to d girl sef. D girls intention might be genuine no doubt buh she would neva in her life try such again say more of putting it up on social media. Evan go n sleep am sure your wife has a lil girl for a maid n u are sleeping with her. Nonsense
DeleteI like d fact that she didn't delete d first comment that is to say she cares less and she's a very open person. She called a spade a spade, evans be a man like my driver. Well me n my italo hubby has 3 househelps n i can borrow d Facebook girl one but they are over 20. Sip my drink while Davido massages my leg.
DeleteCan all these hypocrites just keep quiet? What's wrong in having a help that age? I'm the first daughter and before I turned 10 I was cooking small meals like rice, making eba, cleaning, carrying my young cousins on my back, going to market and running errands, so please everyone should chill out. Most of us here have parents who we send younger kids from the village over to, just to help them around the house...in America, parents encourage their young teens to get baby sitting and nanny jobs so that they can earn money and learn responsibility...so CHILL NIGERIA
DeleteGND@ I don't av to trade insults with u, u wanna know if u a man check Ur under pants.....
DeleteYou shouldn't Evan u should act a man n shut the fuck up since u need to check ur underpants to know u re a man plz quickly do dt n remind ursef
DeleteI know the truth hurts DAT much but learn to deal with it...u like it or not I drove home salient points, next time don't condemned someone becos u don't even know d motive behind their request....

DeleteU didn't av to delete d 1st comment okay... Put urself where Ur mouth is...for deleting DAT comment u fall Ur hand....hahahahahahahahahahaha
DeleteDid she state the reason and what she needed the help for?Ive seen really nice people look after their help and I've seen Devils and lucifers disfigure helps.Thats y u all need to get out of the kitchen and go vote
ReplyDeleteNo shaking
It depends on d type of help....d important thing is to ensure d little girl goes 2 school....mine is 14 and I fund her fees . Her major job is too stay with my newborn while I cook or run little errands..she also wash d plates, mop d house on Saturdays ..she also sweeps d house b4 she goes 2 school...just little little things like *go and get me this or that from d kitchen/parlour etc*

DeleteHow much do both of you pay them?I can bet,it's only food you give them and you beat the hell out of them when they do little mistakes.I don't even think you register them into better school.
DeleteIts against the law to have a child less than 18 do chores for you no matter how little. Your statement can actually get you arrested. Ignorance of the law has never been an excuse. Have you heard of NAPTIP ( National Agency for the Prohibition of Traffic in persons)? Google it pls and be educated .
DeleteWhat is child abuse. If I have a child of 12years won't she run errands for me? I have a girl of 11 and she's been with me since i got married She'll turn 16 this yr and I put her in private school. She's also writing junior waec this yr. So if she misbehaves can't I spank her or I'll leave her so she can rotten. Abeg I only object to maltreatment. Most of these kids are given beta life when they are kept in places in the city. And they can only be trained when u get them young. Instead of getting an 18 yr old that will punch u or sleep with ur husband. My opinion.
DeleteGood point ibkay
DeleteI appreciate that we ladies try to improve lives of these girls while they also do chores for us. My point is you want to improve the life of a child by making him/her live with you, there is a procedure called adoption as provided under the Children and Young Persons Law of Lagos State. The law is to protect children who may be unlucky to fall into wrong hands. Let's try to do things rightly at all times and stop the show of sentiment. I hope my point is clear . have a fantastic Sunday #peace
DeleteWell,I tink d person can as well use an older woman. D woman won't b sleeping ofcourse but will b coming daily to do house chores.I won't subscribe to using teenagers for househelps bcos most of dem suffer and do housechores dey r nt yet supposed to b doing!!!
ReplyDeleteI suspect that lady is up to no good.
ReplyDeleteAge wise to young, but most ladies take small girls, my neighbor an example with an excuse she's too young and can't snatch my husband to worsen it, they maltreat this kids, they wudnt even put them in school... In other words a girl my age would snatch their husband
ReplyDeleteThis act shouldn't be encouraged at all!
ReplyDeleteI dnt tink there is a big deal in needing a house help,cos most of their parent cannot tak care of dem,bt we must treat dem,d way we wil also treat our children
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely right.
DeleteThe person who sent DAT is an idiot... U don't know DAT lady and don't av any right what so ever to put her up like DAT... Not every1 maltreat their house help, househelp DAT age is easier to control Dan an adult who av seen d nuke and crannies of the society.....
ReplyDeleteAnd to the sender if u want to fight child abuse start following all d kids DAT hawk in the streets home and get their parent's image and send to Emeh....
ReplyDeleteYou sound like u have one of that age. If u got money and want to help a needy family a child does not need to work for you b4 you pay fees or give them a monthly allowance. Any child below 18 used for a house help is not proper at all. Let's be frank here.
DeleteAnonymous@ I love Ur point, but believe it or we all need a helper @ one point or the other, it doesn't mk us less demeaning, DAT lady myt be a banker, and d both of us know how it is for a banker to tk care of d family and still be punctual to work...d fact she requested a helper doesn't mean she's encourages child abuse, and for d record u can't help everyone, but it easier to help sometimes while u get service in return.... But in d process u'll be giving sm1 a better future he/she probably won't get elsewhere....
DeleteNa wa ooooooo
ReplyDeleteShe wants a young girl maybe because she doesn't trust her husband hence exposing the girl to rape from her not trustworthy husband. Look at annie for instance, she has a young help who wears baggy dirty looking skirts while she wears her bumshort for tuface Cos she doesn't trust him knowing fully well tuface fit seduce the girl. This young women ain't loyal
ReplyDeleteCan't she do her house chores by herself?I believe before she got married to her hubby she was doing those house chores she wanted to employ a maid for just to pretend to him that she was a wife material.
DeleteSunny this your comment no follow at all
DeleteYou to get mouth sunny.
DeleteLmao this sunny is dumb o.... you think all women are housewives? people have serious jobs and tight schedules to keep that they need extra help. and apparently sunny 1. your not married 2. your not working and 3. you do not have kids. or if you have all 3 mentioned then 4. your wife is a house wife.
DeleteI don't care weda she is a banker, a pastor or a president all I know is that Everything is wrong with this, that's still a minor, if she needs a house help she should go for someone of age or is she scared of something?#bitchbye✋✋
ReplyDeleteHian! IT IS WELL
ReplyDeleteEmeh, you should have atleast cut out the place with her name. It isn't right the way her name is up for everyone to see, after all she hasn't done anything wrong. It isn't everyone that mistreat their helps whether young or old.
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with it...
ReplyDeleteSo long as you treat her right, some parents don't have money to send their kids to school. So someone can help out with that
There's everything wrong in it. 12 or 15 years is bloody hell young. She just shouldn't ve put that up there in public. U guys that are saying nothing wrong in it how wld u feel if ur 12 or 15 year old sibling or child is been used as A maid. Way kind of chores can a 12 or 15 years old child possibly do excellently? Then when they don't do it well they get beaten right?
DeleteAnd those who who say she might be insecure because of her husband, who says if d man is a pervert he can't rape her? If dey re insecure why don't they brace up themselves n do their chores themselves or get someone above 18.
Hmm Anon you should go bak and read what i wrote before blabbing. I don't support the way she put up the request on Facebook. All I said is that there's nothing wrong with getting a help so long as she treats the child right.
DeleteI live with my 11yr old niece, I train her in school and in return she helps out a bit in the home and with the kids. Does that mean am abusing my sister's child....NO
When we were much younger my cousin lived with aunt, she trained her through schooling and in return she helped out with kids. Now she's educated and with a good job all thanks to her aunt. If she had stayed bak with her family, am sure she'll probably be hawking something on the street or be a prostitute now.
So pls get my point before judging!!!
Nothin bad in her request..not every woman is wicked
ReplyDeleteMaybe she prefers dem young.
ReplyDeleteBut it's not right
She wanted a house girl she will be giving groundnut and pure water to hawk.She know she can't do that to an adult lady.If she doesn't want her hubby to cheat she should be doing her domestic chores by herself without a househelp.Some ladies pretend to be a nice girl to her fiance just to make him put a ring in her finger,only to change when she becomes a valid housewife.
ReplyDeleteShe's responsible for any insult directed at her, so no other means of seeking help except via face book. N pls everything is wrong wt enlisting d services of an 11yrs old as a house help, d truth is some of us r juz too lazy.
ReplyDelete@ Gina, I accept. What is d help suppose to do cook, do laundry? Obviously, she won't be able to do so,which will result into beating. That is if the husband doesn't even abuse the help.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing wrong with it as far as you treat her like your own and not "overuse" her. Afterall if your daughter was that age, she'll do chores too.
ReplyDeleteFor dos dat seem to av a problem with dat, u r either ignorant of d society u live in, or hypocritical or just don't reason b4 commenting. It was a simple nd polite request mainly for dos kids whose parents r irresponsible to send dem to school. If u r able to send ur kids to school, u shud count ursef lucky nd Thank God, not criticise others dat r trying to help. do u rather dem kids get pregnant at dat age or indulge in some oder shit? If u so concerned abt child labor, den u shud give money or send dos less priviledge kids to school. Nd if u cant do dat please shut up, nd let oders help d way dey can. Househelp or not, kids dat age shud b able to help in d house with one or two tins. So y d fuss abt it.
ReplyDeleteGood point Nkay
DeleteU're smart and I encourage Ur smartness, I was baffled to see Emeh but such thing up here, even without giving d lady d little courtesy by hiding her name....nor be everytin when person send dem dey put online o.....
DeleteOh please shut up nkay, you noy making sense at all. And you Janet curse your own is to be commending wat ppl say because u are all birds of same feather. I just went through the girls Facebook and she looks like one that will really maltreat househelp just like this nkay here. Ode bye bitches
DeleteLol at anonymous comment
DeleteNkay like I said earlier dey should help d poor n less privileged buh guess wat this kids will not do one or two chores in d house, they will do everything and work beyond their capabilities that's the basic truth stop contradicting ursef dear. so if d lady wants to help a kid she should do it by sowing into d persons life n help not making her a maid. Let her go n get someone above 18. Mr EVANS emeh did nothing wrong in putting up her name cos d lady too had no dignity when she put that up on Facebook publicly.
We can neva treat a maid as good as we treat our children that's a fact. I will never be a party to child labour no matter your intention for d child. Anyone dat wants a help should be ready to afford an adult thts it

DeleteNa wa to you. Listen to urself..."and she looks like one that will really maltreat househelp"
Smh.
