“A Househelp Is Employed To Work Not To Go To School” - Lady On Twitter by HeWrites(m): 6:53am On Oct 09, 2017
A young Nigerian lady identified as THE MUSE has took to her Twitter page to share that she believes a house help is not employed to go school but to work and earn income.

According to another user who goes by the name OTEDOLA on the Microblogging platform, she said;
Feminism and equality merchant but your house girl no dey go school

Then the lady responded;
No point here, she was not employed to go to school

Who else agree with the lady?

She is actually right, it is only if its part of their agreement. Otherwise it's her choice. not sending her to school does not mean she's cruel to her.

I kinda agree with her. She's being factual. A househelp, just like other domestic paid employees, is EMPLOYED to work and in return get paid. But if being paid in CASH is not part of the agreement, then it'll suffice to pay her in KIND, by treating her same way you treat your kids.

Depends on the agreement. which is why I don't encourage the use of kids BTW age 9-14 as househelp. these kids should be in school. Older kids can decide whether they want to go to school, receive cash as payment ,or learn a trade.

Why can't these women do their own house work?
The laziness is real SMH.

There are career women with kids and they still manage to look after their homes.

It's in Nigeria where kids are used as helpers/Nannies. In advanced Nations, adults do these jobs as either part time or full time who get paid for their services. In this premise, she's right for saying what she said but most Nigerians who bring in others kids from the villages to do house helps don't pay these girls for their services, as a matter of fact, the child's parent is lied to that they'd put the child in school. If you're not paying her monthly or weekly for what she does then you should send her to school. It's wickedness if she isn't paid, and isn't put in school.

She's right, same applies in the corporate world. Unless your terms of employment highlights training and advanced educational opportunities, you were employed to work and earn money. What you choose to do with your money is your choice.

Employing an underaged school-age kid as househelp is reprehensible.
If you need an househelp, employ an adult, with that no one will complain.

It depends on the term of agreements.

That is why l am against minor to work irrespective of how it's.

But in such haba women since na minor, just take care of the minor education and wellbeing.

Thank God say no be women they rule the world.

Well it depends on the age of the househelp.

I believe it is actually illegal to employ a minor in the first place.
