The only way for you to live comfortably with househelps and make them last long in your house is by treating them as househelps – Nigerian woman says

A Nigerian woman, Nneka Obani, has said that the only way to retain domestic workers long term is to be professional and not show any form of unnecessary kindness to them. 

“Someone once told me that the only way for you to live comfortably with househelp, the only way to make them last long in your house is by treating them exactly as who they are, househelp!!! Keep it completely professional, do not treat them like your friends or sisters, do not laugh or joke around with them, pay their salaries as when due and face your front, do not give them any preferential treatment or show any form of unnecessary kindness to them, else they will run you street. A house help is never your friend nor your sibling. Know this and know peace,” she wrote in a Facebook post on Thursday.
