I hate it when somebody will not be confidently pick and answer a call in my presence but will chose to secretly cut off the call while holding the phone,or will be shouting "hello", hello" oh poor network ,bla bla when it is obvious you are hearing the caller. This is is the case of our House help whom we just employed 5 weeks ago.

She will always put her phone on silent mode and always on call (receiving) even more than we.She a times picks it in my presence if my wife is not around ,i dont understand what they will be discussing as i dont understand her language,its only my wife that understands her language and she hardly pick calls if my wife is around and her phone is vibrating .She takes care of the children and it sounds as if such a frequent calls do scares me especially the way she used to hide it.She has never pick any calls in my presence where she speaks English language but always her tribal language which i dont understand.

My question is do i need to ask her anything?,is it normal,do you think anything is wrong with it?should i just ignore it?,does such act sound abnormal or pose any security threat and otherwise?

Table the matter before your wife who understands same language as your house keeper. I don't think it is something serious.


Back then in my teen days especially when i just got out of secondary school, i was also guilty of the crime of picking up calls saying hello hello hello, bla bla bla pretending that the network is poor when i am in the presence of my parents or elder ones. I would later sneak out to call my then sweet sixteen, telling her "baby i am sorry i was in the presence of my parents" and she always understands.


Your house keeper knows that you might get offended if she sex talks in your presence. How will you feel if she picks the call in your presence telling the caller sweet words like...i love u, i miss u, can't wait to be in ur arms again? The girl is just according you respect as the boss of the house.

She's got access to your home. Please make it your business to know who she's talking to at the other end.

She is either hiding something or planning something.

The bottom line is there is something fishy.

Discuss it with your wife.

Don't be scared. Get a recorder and secretly record her conversations and let your wife listen to it. Don't let your wife call her attention to it for now so as to avoid getting her aware.

act now before e go too late

If it be say she don get one guy man for the nebor hood wey go dey cure her conji

She fit dey plan something bad wey go affect You

boyfriend on other side of the call, nowadays children are not afraid or humble enough to know their low background they have a boy somewhere who they think they are in love with

She's coming back with free pregnancy soon. Just give it some time...
Worst still, the caller may be calling to monitor your family's schedules. The price for freedom is eternal vigilance , they say
What kind of secret call is worth being received without you awareness if not based on sinister motives.. .

You need to act fast before the word" If I had Known I would have.... ", but what I will advise you to do is what I don't know for now

Her boyfriends in the village may be the ones calling her but still you need to be careful for security reasons. Our own is not allowed to use a phone. My mum allowed her to choose any day she wants in a week to use her phone for 24hrs, she usually drop it in the main building table the following day by 5am. Her family also contact my mum if there is any emergency or if they want to speak with her.

Op see what you will do. Whenever she picks such calls, put your phone on record, pretend as if you forgot something inside the room or kitchen, drop the phone close to her and quickly leave the room, as if what you are going to pick is urgent.

Just take your time and come back when she's through with her call because if you stay around, she might be quick with whatever conversation she's having.

At night, let your wife listen to it (with earphone to avoid her hearing anything, in case she's the type that also eavesdrops on her employers) and interpret. That will give you clue to her plans in your house. Because whether you like it or not, that lady has come with lots of plans. And such plans don't always end well.

The person above has said it all.....
I used to tell people that any outsider you bring into your house as house help or Nanny can make or mar you. In fact the lives of everyone in that house lies in their hands.

OP listen to this

Wow,are you being serious? She has a right to her privacy you know even though she 'got access to his home',whatever that means.

Guy.. Either she get boyfriend or she is planning to raid your house, either which way is a no no.

If you're paying for her service try to question her about it or ask your wife to do it, then place restrictions on her use of the phone, for example she can't receive calls after 6pm, let her submit her phone.

Be vigilant pls, don't leave d kids wt her while u or ur wife is away. U can also install cctv secretly, tell d security not to allow her go out wt d kids alone too. She's got agenda(s)!!! God be wt y'all

It's either her boyfriend or a plan to raid your home
