A 34-year-old woman, Mrs. Alexandra
Ossai, has accused her Lebanese boss, Kaveh Noine, of causing her to
lose her seven-month-pregnancy after he kicked her in the stomach.
Ossai, who until December 13, 2013, was a
supervisor with a Lebanese owned firm, Toppan Printing Company, alleged
that Noine assaulted her many times during her eight months stay at the
company.
Currently at a private hospital in the Fagba area of Lagos State, Ossai said that she had undergone emergency surgery four days after the kick to
save her life as her placenta was said to have been damaged.
She said, “I started working at Toppan
in April. I earn N17,000 salary and work from Monday to Saturday.
Anytime Noine was annoyed, he would beat the person he was angry with.
Sometimes, he would throw whatever he can lay his hands on at the
person. Prior to that incident, Noine had slapped me many times.

“Noine had said he would hold me
responsible for the shortcomings of the people I supervised. As a
result, I often assisted my subordinates in their duties to make sure
that Noine had nothing to complain about.”
Ossai said on December 12 2013, Noine had flown into a rage when he noticed something on the floor in her section.
“It was a container for a drug. That is
what we do; we produce packets for drugs and perfumes. So when Noine saw
one of such packets on the floor, he was so angry that he gave me a
blow to the chest,” she recalled.
She said Noine subsequently went into
his office and typed a termination letter for Ossai, which she refused
to sign. Her refusal allegedly enraged him further and after verbally
abusing her, he was said to have told her that it was her last warning.
The following day, Ossai ran into Noine
while coming from his secretary’s office. Noine allegedly dragged Ossai
back to the office and called her a wicked woman.
Ossai said, “He said I looked like a mad
person. After abusing me, he hit me on my neck twice. Then, without
warning, he kicked my stomach with his knee. Some co-workers were there
but they did not intervene. I felt a sharp pain in my stomach.”
The mother of one, whose younger brother
and sister also worked in the same company, said she prevailed on her
siblings not to attack Noine when they heard the news.
Wicked world, he should be punish for this
