According to a post she made on LinkedIn, she was being paid less than N3000, which was not enough to take care of her needs.
"3 years ago I stopped being a house help. With less than N3,000 (approximately $6 at that time) a month as salary. To add to this misery, it was not even the salary that was my problem, but the hard labour that followed.
"I did it so that I could afford to pay for my fees back in college, but unfortunately I ended up missing some papers in my final exams because my college fees was not complete, I was really pained."
She called it quits
She said at some point, she decided to quit the job to find something better.
In a brief chat, Peace told Legit.ng that she became a house girl so as to feed and pay her school fees as she was a student then
Her words:
"I started from College of Education Ekiadolor, Benin and proceeded to the University of Benin. I became a house help so I could feed and pay my school fees while I was in school."
But she missed a paper in the final exams for her B.Ed in Early Childhood Education because she did not pay her fees and had to go back the following year to rewrite and graduate.
But now, she said her condition has changed as she is now an online couch making tons of money after graduating and stopping her bitter job as a maid.
