Reality TV star, Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha,
has advised business owners to apply due diligence when employing support staff
members.
Taking to her Instagram stories on Monday, the former Big
Brother Naija housemate lamented about her experience with a driver she
employed in August after the previous one had caused the Lagos State Traffic
Management Authority to impound her vehicle.
She wrote, “Everybody needs to be careful with the kind of
support staff they keep around them. My company employed this driver on the
31st of August after the former driver took one way on Lekki-Epe way, and LASMA
impounded my van. I know the struggle I went through to get my van back.
“A new driver was employed and I assumed everything was okay
until I got a mail from the management of the property I stay in, thanking me
for my stay and wanting to have a short conversation with me. On the 6th of
October, we jumped on a Zoom call where they dropped the reason for the Zoom
call.
“Apparently, my driver had been conniving with the gateman
of the property to steal the premises fuel and they sell it together! I was
shocked. How can somebody who has not worked for two months in a company be
stealing fuel?” (sic)
She further revealed that she contacted the logistics team
for her business, and they had to terminate the driver’s employment at the end
of the month.
Tacha, who currently runs an online shop for beauty and
fashion products, Everything Tacha, further advised business owners to
“double-check” before employing people as support staff members.
“I know we cannot be 100 percent correct when we make
decisions about our support staff, but please let’s double-check because people
like this will just ruin business for you,” she advised.
