Nollywood actress and producer Mercy Aigbe has shared a shocking revelation about her staff stealing from her after a devastating house fire in December 2024.
According to her, the fire incident, which was caused by a power surge, destroyed a significant portion of her merchandise and goods stored in her home.
However, what followed was even more distressing – her staff at her fashion house stole from her.
Here’s what Mercy Aigbe had to say:
“Back on the grind, back rejuvenated, back re-energized, back revitalized, back renewed, back like I never left, and back to do a lot of exploits this 2025. But before I delve into that, let’s throwback to last year, especially December 2024. Last year December came with a lot of gbas gbos. Guys, you know sometimes life throws you curve balls. You just have to learn to navigate and be resilient. I am talking about the fire incident that happened at my place. A lot of you are familiar with the news because I shared it here. That incident left me devastated. I mean, that fire took A LOT, you have no idea. It actually also took the merchandise I went to China to get for the PR of my film Thin Line. Took some of the goods I put in the container because I stored it in the store in the house. The fire started from the store and it was caused by a power surge. Guys, that left me broken. But I still found the strength to thank God because no life was lost, so I kept going. Like that was not enough, few days or a week after the incident, my staff struck. They did not even have pity on me. I mean, the staff working with me at my business place, my fashion house. They stole from me. It was so bad that I had to get the police involved. I was super overwhelmed with all these things and at that point, I knew I had to take a break. I was drained! I had to take a short break, and that I did.”
Thank God she came back better and stronger.
