dicefrost: That's a big IF, which neither you nor any other nairalander here castigating the boss can say for certain whether it happened or not, so why not allow e court to hear he matter and make pronouncement |

Myself2: If you re-read my comment, I used the word IF; and that is based on the original story and the defense of the worker and the reason for her post. My comment was, if her defense is true; then there is no defamation. I don't put much weight on Police arrest or their them filing charges, sometimes they are not worth the paper they are written on. Police can arrest anyone, and IPOs can charge anyone. A charge brought against anyone is not a proof in itself. We have seen even Nigerian courts striking out EFCC cases. IPO bringing a charge against someone in Nigeria, especially in a circumstance like this, in majority of the cases; might mean either the defendant did not pay 'bail' money or the 'bail' money was not enough or that the claimant have a deep pocket and must have taken care of the Police and is determine to teach the lady a lesson or to intimidate her to back down and back off. I don't have to be a Judge to know the law, it is your duty as a citizen to know the law and conduct yourself accordingly and also be able to assert your rights, if the Police or some Boss want to intimidate you. 1 Like |

Godwin2am: Bro contact Dangote refinery (or whoever you worked for) to see if you can solve the issue directly with them....but your issue is a bit different because you were robbed, while the OP was just having late payment issue. |

9jaRealist: How do you know she was telling the truth? |

Myself2: But that's exactly what he has done! Instead of a civil case for defamation, he has apparently used his position to initiate a CRIMINAL process. Defamation is a TORT (ie, a civil wrong rather than a criminal wrong). Accordingly, while he can seek CIVIL redress, getting the police to arrest the lady is an abuse of the coercive power of the state. > |

Obudupikin: The post you were responding to... Was specifically based on the predicate: "Is he a debtor or not Was he owing her or not" Accordingly, your response... That her statement was a "crime" even given that premise was patently incorrect under extant law. > |

eazzzy1: frowland: winningwinner: seborrhic: sisisioge: First, he deserves whatever reputational "damage" he may suffer because the PUBLIC needs to know who they are dealing with... Second, for the umpteenth time, as long as he is owing salaries, he is a DEBTOR and the truth is a COMPLETE DEFENSE to defamation. Finally, the police should never had gotten involved... Defamation is NOT a crime, but a CIVIL offense (a tort). > |

Caseless: Sergioaguero: descartes400: Telling the police that you committed an act.... Is not synonymous with criminal liability under the law. It'a like telling police investigators that you shot someone... But pleading not guilty in court on the grounds of self-defense. > |

9jaRealist:good position. Why do defendants who outrightly admit their "guilt" guilt get sentenced? It seems admission of guilt before a judge holds water more than the one done before the police, right? |
Re: Police Arraign Company’s Secretary For Calling Her Boss ‘Debtor’ On Social Media by Myself2(m): 9:08am On Aug 31, 2019 |
9jaRealist: I disagree, he did not need his position to approach the courts. At worst you could say its an abuse of court processes or case was filed wrongly, either way, he did not need his boss position to do this, he should even be pitied as his case could be thrown out for being filed wrongly (if not amended) The arrest of the defendant by the police could still have happened even in a civil suit, it's what follows thereafter that is key |

linearity: I remember simply responding that would be a big IF as the entire matter rests on this IF So we are in agreement here linearity: We are also in agreement here linearity: You forgot to mention Or If some mischievous staff wants to lie against you as a boss, or slander/defame you in some form |

9jaRealist: And where did I specifically say her statement was a crime? |
