It all boils down to greed and laziness. I can't imagine someone will wake up one morning and think of who to kidnap. May God help us all.

ifyalways:
I'm a mother, I live in Nigeria and I blame the parents especially the mother of those kids, 190%.

Who hires maid NOW, without getting, meeting and cross checking references? How could they be that desperate and I dare say stooopid?

Even with confirmed references, the standard practice after hiring a new maid is to leave FIRM instructions with your security guys that UNDER no condition should the maid step out with the kids without your consent. Same instruction is passed on to the driver. The maid and driver does school runs TOGETHER at least for 4 months.

I simply pray those kids are returned home safely but darn, some of us parents need to set our priorities right. Family first!

lol for tho case u should know the person was criminally minded, so after ur so called cross referencing and 4months probation the evil person strikes what happens. You're just talking as if people don't plan b4 they carry out evil. If at all any one would be blamed it would be the structure of this country as they don't have a sound nanny hiring companies!!! The so called "nanny" is just evil simple

whizjay:
Mehnnn....

Buhh, wait oh!!
how will you leave a nanny,
Who's also a complete stranger
Alone with your kids
On the first day of resumption!!






Hope the kids return safely sha...

what are you talking about. she could have waited 1 year and still done the same thing. Whoever referred the help is in soup

This is the reason I hate house help being maid or whatever. I told my wife the two of use will have to take care of kids ourselves no house boy or girl. I don't trust strangers nowadays. May those kids return home without hurt in Jesus name.

u will just sleep one day and refuse to wake up because of hatred. Keep carrying other peoples problem on ur head like plantain chips

na wa o

This is not the time to blame the parents, situations like this can prove wiser than anyone...the Nanny must have faked personality to the core like a nun for them to entrust their kids in her hands on the first day...but if truly they got the Nanny from OLX mehn it's really difficult to understand the reason why

I don't believe the story jor.Am not sure it was the girl that demanded the ransom.U know the family contact are on social network.Anybody can just feign a kidnapper to demand ransom.I don't pray the family falls into this because they might loose in 2 ways but my prayer is that the children will come home safely in Jesus name.Though,the information I got yesterday is that the children have been spotted/seen in Sagamu..They wl be seen ijn..

ifyalways:

Which house now does not have a " gate man"?
How could anyone not " trust" the security? Is that even possible?
If they can afford to employ a nanny they " ought" to have a driver or a known cabbie for school run.

Did u not see where I blamed both parents or just want to get yourself, not me, into a meaningless debate?

Ify, In my house we don't have a gate man. We got tired of them and the landlady decided to lay them off and made keys for everyone. When you drive out, lock the gate.

OLX SHOULD BE SEVERELY SANCTIONED. THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY SCAMS ON THAT WEBSITE.

steppin:
If I was the father of those kids, the moment I get my kids back, their mum would have to see her folks.
For a woman to leave her kids to a complete stranger she got from OLX(yeah! That's right!), says a lot about her level of reasoning.
She values her job more than her family and the husband should give her the chance to marry her job.

please grow up

olx, piece of shii.

I tire for them shaa. With all the bad news of housemaids going around in he country.

Babymama1:
I wonder why the parents are being blamed
Do you hire a nanny so you can stay home with Her
Assuming the parent stayed home, won't she leave home at some point
The nanny was evil
Pure and simple

The parent are equally dumb or stupid to hire a nanny from OLX What happens to bringing in their relatives, cousin, uncle, aunt even parents to stay with them and take care of the kids. Classic case of stupidity of the highest order.

See the result of irresponsibility on the part of the parents.I can't leave my child in the care of a relation not to talk of nanny,what is that?See where hard work has landed the parents.

Later on, when the hands of the law catch up with this useless Nanny, she will blame the devil for an act.


My Advice to people, Stay away from OLX. It's the den of thieves and people with evil intentions no matter how genuine they appear to be.

To reply u, first of all, MBU is an AIG not commissioner. Again Mbu will only issue instructions to his commissioners working under him of which i know he has done. Thirdly, MBU was a commissioner in Rivers not AIG. How many times have you heard AIGs coming in close contact with governors? Thats shows that AIG is more than a governor of a state as he has more states under his jurisdiction. Now free MBU as he is greater than u think.

Because after the first day her motive for the kidnapping will just fade away ba?

Back to the Tp
Since, Working class parents can't do without help;
It is always safer to gt recommendations from atleast people there've got themselves acquainted with.
You can't just go to olx and employ one.

By the time the person that gave the recommendations and his/her entire fam is locked up; the kids will appear since.

So how is it that fashola cannot secure the lives of lagosians?

Yes ke

We expect GEJ to stop boko haram. Why can't fashola stop the kidnapping of kids in Lagos
Haven't we seen too many of these stories
What did he do with his security vote

IS IT NOT ABOUT TIME THIS OLX OF A THING SHOULD BE BANNED OR BLOCKED

NOTHING! GOOD EVER COMES OUT OF IT!

I pray they should be returned safely.

Lol. F00lish and careless parents. How do people employ a nanny they met online. It's dangerous to do business first with a total stranger in Nigeria, talk more of leaving the kids in care of a stranger

Oh lord have mercy! how could they be so blinded by their career? The parents did not prioritise their needs. This is a very terrible mistake committed by parents these days. work before family. career before family, job before family.
They are not bothered about the safety of their kids at all.

You must be very young
The era of finding relatives has been over a long time
My parents are looking for a second housekeeper that will be paid and this is 4 months and they still haven't found
Many of those people that would have been maids back then make more money selling recharge cards than cooking and cleaning under a madam .
Times have changed
There was a time people begged relatives in the city to live with their kids to send them to school,not anymore
Those girls in the village do runz from a tender age and support their family
Who wan do boi boi

Hmmm

hope all z well?

Surd2121:
OLX maid again ?? When will our people learn ??

afta d. 2nd coming of Jesus

Inexperienced hungry kidnappers. They will be caught. Folks what we can do for the parents is to talk less about the kidnapping but continue to insult the kidnappers so that we do not ignorantly tip them off. The kidnappers were hired via a social media website, they may be checking other websites for updates.

The parents should be flogged repeatedly while been layed on a long bench.

Nanny on OLX

You mean on your first day at work, nobody monitor or supervise you?
When you hire a Nanny, you have to study her for few days before you can conclude to leave your house/belongings in her care
