| How Do I Handle This? by Counterigbolies(op): 10:07pm On Feb 28, 2025 |
Good day to you wherever you are reading this from, an incident happened today that left me dumbfounded and confused. I just got a shop in a new location like 2 months ago and I was introduced to a carpenter who stays directly opposite the shop, he happens to be a young boy around mid twenties. He helped me work on the shop, he charged me 500k for materials and workmanship 120. We went to the market n got it and when we finished I paid him n even gave him some drink for job well done. He hangs around my shop because he doesn't have a shop yet so people see him as my brother, fortunately and unfortunately I have a customer who needed his service, the old woman approached me and asked if I can vouch for him and I told her he's work is neat. Fast forward to 2 days ago, the woman took him to her new site and when they came together to my shop after the work this boy told me that someone stole 30k at the site and the old woman confirmed it. I felt bad but at the same time my instinct told me the carpenter I introduced to the woman stole the money but I locked up. Fast forward to today, probably this guy has forgotten that he told me someone stole 30k in site 2 days ago. Lo and behold this guy came to meet me that I should please help him transfer 30k exactly to his account and he gave me 30k cash exactly. Like I was shocked but I lock up, like seriously it's obvious it's this guy that stole the money. I told my wife and I was like I will call the guy and let him know what he did was bad but my wife cautioned me, please nairalanders what should I do in this case because I am not happy with the whole thing. Though I don't have any plans to tell the woman but I just want the carpenter to know what he did is bad, so please how do I go about it? |

In the era of POS lingering everywhere Well what are the odds that he stole the money The only thing you can say is he worked for you and he delivered excellently but you can vouch for someone you don't know. If just like one having a colleague at work and you work well Doesn't mean I can vouch if you have good r morals |

[quote author=Counterigbolies post=134342862][/quote]If the cash is with you and you are willing to go against your wife's advice, try and ask the person whose money was stolen the denomination of the stolen money, and if it correlates, you can show the money to the person to see if they can recognize the money... in all these sha, you have to be wise and stay alert cos even the person whose money was stolen can't be fully trusted to be truthful when you show them the cash. PS. be careful o, no go put head inside matter wey no too concern you. na recommend you recommend, you no kill person o. |

ajailer:the cash still dey with me like right now self Its just because the old woman is someone I just know so I really don't know how she can react to d situation If she will handle it well I can tell her. For people who are doubting me let me tell u d full story so they can understand A driver helped them take materials to site, so they were 4. The driver, the carpenter, the old woman n a mentally slow boy that the woman is helping. The boy is a imbe**cile so it's obvious he wasn't d one cos e no even know d value of money n with the cloth he wore there's no way he can keep that money. The driver was d one offloading n d carpenter cutting to size, according to d story the carpenter was d one cutting to size near the car n d driver was already negotiating with the woman so they were both distant from d car n d boy. It was d carpenter that went to tell d woman that her phone was ringing inside the car n that's where d money is So it was obvious the carpenter was d only one close to the car n he was d only one there. The old woman was saying it that she will swear for the person that took the money n I felt bad 4 people were there The driver The woman The slow boy The carpenter Only the carpenter was working at close proximity with the car to even hear d ringing of the phone from the bag. U self reason am |

Dont say anything, lock up. Avoid unnecessary problems. I can see a thousand ways things can go wrong for you if you go down that path. But one thing is sure, the boy has lost his integrity in your sight (assuming he truly stole the money). Thats a greater price to pay by cautioning him when you didn't catch him redhanded. If you summon him, he will deny it for sure, and hate you for defamation, and might even plan bad against you. I repeat, dont go down that path. Ignore. 1 Like |

I posted an issue here and many of u doubted the story, some said I was looking for attention n some said it's a lie. It's normal for u people to feel that way but let me give u the final update on the case n I will give u picture evidence to back my claim up. I told u the other day that 30k was stolen n many of u didn't believe it, yesterday been Sunday I went to shop to gather small change to flex in the evening On my way to shop, the old woman and 2 elderly men stopped me to ask if that carpenter boy was around n I told them I don't know cos I was just coming. When I got to the shop that was when they came to meet him at home, like seriously the boy didn't only steal money but he stole many things. I keep hearing inges (don't know if that's the spelling), door handles, 4 by 2 nails (3 packs) n d likes. I no near them but I just Dey watch from afar, the old woman went to report him to the community elders n they told him he will buy all those things mentioned n come n give it to them cos the old woman provided evidences she bought them n showed transfer details with narration n they also called the driver to confirm n he said he offloaded them too. Though the old woman didn't talk about the 30k but the elders agree the boy will buy all those things listed n they gave him 7days or else he will b arrested. Picture evidence below I decided to remove their faces n besides I snapped from afar but I have to zoom n crop Cc ajailer hakeemhakeem Pansophist Olorunjoe Ikonse

[quote author=Counterigbolies post=134375042][/quote]Have you finally seen the alert of the 5k d boy sent to your acct? At this rate, as there are elders involved in the matter now, feel free to go and meet them and tell them your own part of the story, how the boy brought some money to you and the denominations(If the money is still with you, you can show them). |
