Businesswoman Nwanneka Narrates How Her Chef Stole Hair Worth $50,000, The Chef Has Now Sued Her for Defamation.
In other news, Nwanneka has shared the kind of story that makes you double-check your security cameras, but her chef is now fighting back in court.

The human hair business owner, who is the CEO of Mizwanneka and the owner of Hairby Wanneka, has recounted how her chef in Nigeria stole hair worth $50,000 from her and sold it at a cheap price. According to her, the chef, who had access to her home, took the luxury hair bundles and sold them for a fraction of their value. After he was exposed, he audaciously asked her for help, as if the theft had never happened.

The story has left many questioning how someone could steal from their employer and still have the nerve to ask for assistance. Nwanneka has been in the hair business for years and has built a reputation for selling high-quality human hair. This is not the first time she has dealt with theft, in 2019, a data analyst employed by Hairby Wanneka was charged with stealing hair valued at N50,000 and N38,000 from the company.

But here is what the blogs did not tell you.

The real reason Nwanneka is so furious is not just because of the stolen hair, it is because she just remembered how the chef also spoilt her favourite cooking pot last year while making egusi soup, and she never got an apology. She has been holding onto that grudge for over a year, and the theft was just the final straw. She is not just losing $50,000, she is finally letting out all the frustration from that burnt pot.
