KieKie KieKie

Nigerian comedienne, Bukunmi Adeaga-Ilori popularly known as Kiekie, has opened up on the reason she quit her job as a TV presenter.

According to the mother of one, she quit her job because her boss ignored her request for a salary increase.

She added that her boss told her to use her beauty to get more money instead of asking for salary increment.

Kiekie revealed this in a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo.

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 added that she quit because her boss, by orientation, did not value her hard work.
