I didn’t disturb him too much because he was a lecturer, and they weren’t receiving salaries because of the ASUU strike. But you’d never have guessed this man was suffering. He had a wife at home, but I’d always drive him and his girlfriends to bars and restaurants. Where he was seeing money from, I don’t know. But he couldn’t pay me my ₦60k salary every month. The straw that broke the camel’s back was when I begged him to pay at least one month’s salary, and he said he didn’t have. A few days later, I overheard him asking his girlfriend if she’d seen the money he sent. That evening, he told me to go and pick the girl up. I drove to her neighbourhood, parked and removed all four tyres. Then I called him and said I wasn’t doing again. I dropped his car key with the girl and left. He didn’t realise what happened until he got there. He called and started threatening me with police. I threatened to tell his wife about his girlfriends. He paid four months’ worth of salary before I returned the tyres. I dash him the rest.” — Johnson. Your story could be the next one featured here.
