You have to cut your losses

1. Download every document, code, database, and everything you can get access to. Ask for more access and get everything. Put it on your GitHub as your project. If you can host any, host the website as yours too.

2. Send emails not Whatsapp messages to HR and your boss

3. You have to resign first before they fire you.

4. Call out the company online (anonymously) and make sure it's the first thing you see when you search for that company.

5. Search for competing companies and apply there.

All the best. Bleep these Nigerian employers

Stop quoting people's grammar or typos it adds nothing's to the subject matter. If you have any advice , just give the young lad and move on.


Why the attack when he has pointed out something vital? It doesn't add up. February is yet to start but he is claiming 2 months already.

@op: My friend, there are ba@stards out there... The same thing happened to me and I don't live in Nigeria. The b@st@rd even took his family on vacation while his employees suffered. He owes one old man (working as a night guard for the factory) 21 months' salary, he was paying only his pension, but not the salary, health insurance, tax etc...

I can't help you, unfortunately. But what I can say is... may it NEVER be well with people like that. May they suffer in horrible pain for years without a cure. Let them rot in pain slowly, very slowly... let them reap the fruits of their b@stardly work.

Give him money to pay his rent and feed him. You all always drop motivational quotes without solutions.

So it is a sin to drop motivational quotes. But that is the best solution he can have. if he takes it too hard, he can commit murder and spoil the rest of his life. As a man or woman, this thing always happens , you can't use force . if you go to Nigeria court you will be frustrated. With patience and faith he can overcome the problem

Don't you read or do you have selective blindness? Did you not see where the OP said he stopped responding to his messages? You attempted to make sense but made none. ITK.
I m very hale and hearty.
You are the one with selective blindness, conjunctivitis and other ailments.
I pointed out Fabuary?
Is it a typo error or he meant February 2023 that we v not entered as at the time I quoted him and right now as I respond to your unwarranted insult.
It's your type that fumes online when they lashy you with nice response.
I v made enough sense and you v made none!
Where the op said he stopped responding to msgs, I addressed it. So how is Fabuary that's written by the op which I pointed out and your point to me correlating?

Been a lawyer doesn't translate to been immune to the law.
I had almost similar experience with a barrister in 2019, mehn na social media help me get back my money.
I drag the man on all SM I could find him, he blocked me, I drag the wife, she too blocked me. I drag the siblings. He had to call me and ask for my account number and send my money and threatened to sue me for defamation and abuses(coupled with other count charges)

Till date I am still waiting for the court case. OP make sure you played your part and you didn't breech any part of the contract, if you're sure that you have no error on you part by all means go all out and get your money.
Remember he who comes to equity much be clean else...
truth is the a good defence to defamation

The person that referred you is not your friend at all. Why didn't he tell you before taking the job?

Supreme145:
A job that I percievd as a miracle job is turning out to be a nightmare. I got a job in Lagos last December as a web designer for the firm with a pay of 150k. The job was supposed to be hybrid but since I couldn't afford relocation we agreed I work remotely pending when I will be able to relocate.

This is the end of fabuary and I haven't received a dime, the man has simply refused to pay me and from his body language he's not going to pay. I contacted the HR and she told me the man isn't responding to her messsages or calls about the payment matter.

He has stopped viewing my messages on WhatsApp or taking my calls too. The guys that referred me mentioned something about him treating the predecessor same way and adviced I take it as employment fraud and walk away from the job.[i][/i]

The issue is I've put efforts and resources into the job and I cant just let go of 300K like that.
I've been borrowing to fuel my gen everyday to work and other expenses. My rent is expired and landlord had been on my neck to pay up. A lot of stuff is hinged on that money.
It's been from one flimsy excuse to the other.

Please I need suggestions on how I can get my money from this man, I have my appointment letter and he's a lawyer.

We’re so alike! I did this to an old employer. Although I was paid some of my wages, he refused to acknowledge all the extra hours I worked for him under the table (outside my contract) he was a “C U next Tuesday”

I came back to the premises a few months later with spray paint and I sprayed all the windows black and wrote “C U next Tuesday” on as many walls as I could! Ha! That will cost him more to remove than what he owed me.

I’m vengeful when it comes to work because you feel like a slave! Imagine working so hard and someone is benefiting from your hard work and you are not being paid! Vengeance!

Someone working for you and you intentionally refusing to pay is an act of wicked and it should be reciprocated in a thousand fold.

That was how one hotel were owing my guy and his brother 6 months salary, this is an hotel that makes nothing less than 1m a day and xx at weekends.

The guys wanted to quit the security job and forget about the money.... I was like "Bro, you guys are the security, literally everyone's life and properties in that hotel is in your hands.... treat their f^cks. you can't let over 600+ go just like.." That was how they arrange and remove 7 52 inches TV, emptied the gen diesel and vanish cheesy

If you're a backend developer with them, there is a way you can enforce your entitlement out of his pocket. Take over the control of their site and demand for your payment in form of ransom. There is no any other simpler method than this.

However, if you're a frontend developer with the company, I'm sorry there is very little you can do about this.

Continue doing the job

Today is 1st February, tomorrow 2nd give them a resignation notice according to what was stated in your employment contract and demand in strong terms that they pay you your outstanding salaries including the one for December.

Your skill is sought after, getting a job should not be a problem
