Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has opined that she found it strange when strangers came to her social media DMs to ask her to use her connections to help them get a job.
“Ask for a job from someone who can be accountable for you” – Tonto Dikeh tells strangers asking her for a job
In a post shared on her Instagram page, the mum of one noted that helping a stranger who she did not know was risky for her if the situation turned sour.
According to her, if the stranger committed a crime at the new job, she would be the one responsible for it because she was helping the person.
She wrote;
“I still don’t understand this concept..
Maybe I am over thinking this or I am not thinking rationally.
BUT how can a total stranger Dm you to help them look for a job, now first it’s ok if I know you to an extend.
But a total stranger asking me to use my connections to get you a job, I don’t know your background.. you may go and commit a crime(you cld steal,k&ll,Dupe,plan a k&dnap and the list goes on.)
Who do you think they will HOLD?
#My darlingz e get where begging suppose stop and this is on Dawg!!!
And to think some women will be begging to look for job for their husbands a few mins after you have sent me a picture of your bartered face.
W00000000H JESUS take the wheels”
Her opinion raised arguments with her followers who opined that it was better to beg for a source of income than money.
Reacting to this, the actress stressed that it was important to ask for a job from people who could hold them accountable and not just random strangers.
