Kiekie in the chat said she resigned from her job after her ex-boss told her to use her beauty to get more money instead of demanding a better salary.
She said: “I once had a boss that I complained to that ‘this salary you used to pay me is not sufficient. Can you pay me more?’ And this man told me that, ‘Why are you stressing yourself? You are fine na, you are on TV, big, big men will see you, and they will give you money. That was how I sacked myself from that day.”
She went on to say she decided to quit the job because she realised her former boss did not value her hard work and contributions.
