A Nigerian lady based in the UK has shared an emotional video claiming she was fired from her job after making content about a colleague who had been laid off.
In the video, the lady was seen crying as she recounted how she was allegedly told to go home shortly after arriving at work.
According to her, her manager informed her that a video she made about her colleague losing his job had been sent to the company by the former employee.
She claimed her colleague complained that the video had caused him mental distress, leading the company to terminate her employment.
The woman explained that she made the video to raise awareness about what had happened and claimed she had obtained permission from her workplace before posting the content online.
She also dismissed suggestions that she created the video for financial gain, stating that she had never made money from her social media content.
The emotional video has since attracted reactions online, with social media users sharing their views on the circumstances surrounding the reported termination.
