"My reaction after being accused".

♦️First person: it's you, no one else, you're were the only person there.

♦️Second person: no I didn't do it, I swear, stoping accusing me.

This are one of the incidents that happens every single day. We are human and we like to judge things on how we see it. That's people try as much as possible to get CCTV camera as an evidence. Accusation are in different types. Have you been accused before or you accused someone, how do you feel?

Explain accusation in your own understanding.

In my own understanding, accusation is is a statement to explain that someone has done something wrong and he or she should take the responsibility. Last 2 week in my area a woman was accused of stealing a phone simply because he was the first person who went there to buy something. Even though the phone was later recovered, the reputation of that woman was painted black. Accusation is not good especially if the person is innocent, we should do proper investigation before pointing our finger on someone.

Tell us a situation whereby you were accused of something and how you felt.

Like I said, I have face different accusations in different accusations like at home and in my working place. Let me start with the one I face at home. That faithful day, there was no light to turn on the fan, so my brother and his friend went to sleep outside within the compound. I was the one person left that night . I don't like sleeping on bed when there's no light because I would be sweating so I lay on the floor.

At around 3am midnight, I heard a knock on the door, it's was my brother and his friend, I opened the door immediately, there was light so he turned on the fan while he slept on the bed as usual. In the morning I wake up, do house chores and off to work. When I came back, he started asking me why I slept on the bed. I explain to him that during the night I was sleeping on the floor till when they came back. He started shouting saying I was the one that was sweating on the bed. He said I should go and check the bed, and truly the bed was wet. It annoys me when someone is blaming me for something I don't know about but I always like to keep quiet.

The one I face on my working place was when the book I use in recording our stock got missing. I couldn't find it so I decided to asked my boss if she had seen it. She accused me of hiding the books, saying am trying hide something from her. This accusation looks so real because am the one in the shop, am the only person with the key, so how come the book is missing.This are some of the accusations I can remember at the moment.

Was the truth finally out that you were innocent?

Yes and no, why? let me start with the one at home, If truly I slept on the bed and it's get wet, why didn't he ask me in the morning, or that night? He was the only person that slept on the bed, maybe he was sweating and its stain the bed. While trying to defend myself he was shouting angrily, about to pick up his slippers, I zoomed off.😂 Till day, he likely to talk it and calling me a liar. I wished we had CCTV, we would known the truth.

The one at my working place, I knew the book can not just miss like that because it's what I used in recording the good we bought within the month and it's very important when taking stock. I decide to clean the store, packing out the drinks and bottle water out, I swept the floor and finally............... I found the missing book. Some part were torn by rat. I picked up all the pieces to show my boss. But thank God that she was convinced that I didn't hide the book.

Is it right to hate those who accuse us unnecessarily?

I don't think it's right to hate those who accused us before putting myself in their condition I will do the same. Imagine you and your friend in the house and suddenly you couldn't find your money in your wallet. No one came in and it's only both of you. What would you do, if it's me, I will be looking at the other person with one eye, he should know why my money is missing. And if the table turns, he would be looking at me because we're the only person in the room. So to me, they want to know the truth and it gets them annoyed when someone is proving innocent in that situation.

At the same time, am not supporting accusations, but what I want to say is, before accusing someone make sure there's evidence because in some occasions, after accusing the person of stealing your money you find out that the money was actually in your pocket not in the wallet.

So to everyone reading this post , if your accuse, it's essential to remain calm when you know you're innocent. Ensure to do investigation properly before accusing someone. Thank you all for your time.

I will like to invite @echuku, @onomzy001, @chomzy01, @missyleo, @boaaj23 to share their critical experience about this very topic: My reaction after being accused
