Often when i see Nigerian movies , i see the owner yell or slap the house helpers.I also sometimes see them get raped and beaten,and no police is called into the scene.It is almost like they are slaves but get paid for it.They are physically and mentally abuse daily by their owners,and are often threaten everyday that they will loose their job.

Do these "people" in Nigeria have rights even thought they are not educated, and financially well off.

I know i said i saw this in movies ,but you cannot deny that this really happens in Nigeria. house owners assault their house helpers ,and if they do have rights for them ,i believe their employers should read them their rights to not being verbally or physically assaulted.

Even parents slap and beat their wards, what rights are you talking about?

rights to not physically or verbally assault the people they employ into their house. duh

It's not like they are slaves, so they have the right to leave the job if they want to but in general I don't think they have any rights in general when it comes to their job.

the human rights in the Nigerian constitution along with international human rights should protect these people
