Controversial media personality, Lilian Afegbai, recently shared a troubling incident on social media involving her house help’s attempt to defraud her.
In a candid video, Lilian revealed the disconcerting details of her house help fabricating a false heart condition in an elaborate scheme to deceive her. The house help even introduced a male accomplice, claiming he was her brother, further complicating the ruse. Falling for the deception, Lilian sent a substantial sum of one hundred thousand naira to aid in the treatment of the fake heart condition. It was only when the house help confessed that the truth came to light, suspecting the scam was linked to a soured business deal. Consequently, Lilian made the decision to cut ties and block the house help.
Expressing her frustration, Lilian pondered on what warranted such deceit from her house help, considering her established reputation as a successful business figure.
This incident isn’t the first challenge faced by Lilian. In 2022, she shared an unfortunate incident on Instagram, cautioning against cutting corners when buying cheaper products after losing a significant sum when her house help fell victim to theft at Mile 12 market. She also recounted contributing over 100,000 naira to a friend’s house help to purchase food items, only to find it limited to tomatoes and pepper, leading to a series of frustrating events. Lilian humorously invited anyone in need of tomatoes and pepper to collect some, as her house was inundated with these items.
Additionally, in January 2022, Lilian disclosed a traumatic experience when attacked by a thief while a seven-year-old child was present. Despite the peril, she expressed gratitude for being unharmed during the ordeal.
