Laura Ikeji who is a sister to billionaire blogger Dr. Linda Ikeji has been chided by Nigerians for getting back at one of her old bullies.
Laura Ikeji said she had to close her account with one of the commercial banks in Nigeria (she refused giving a name) when she discovered that the accountant in charge of her bank account was one of those who bullied her back in her days as a student of University of Lagos (UNILAG).
Laura Ikeji who herself is a fashion blogger, took to her social media page a few hours ago, to share the story of how during her days as a student in UNILAG, she used to be bullied by two girls whose names she did not give, saying that the two girls, constantly made her uncomfortable each time they see her.
She said the girls laughed and clap hands whenever they saw her, and said unpleasant things to her, to the extent that she could not bear it again, so she had to leave her hostel (Amina hall) for an accommodation outside.
This was how Laura Ikeji narrated her ordeal in the hands of the two girls. She said:
“Story time ?. When I was in Unilag, Amina hall, there were these 2 girls that constantly made me uncomfortable. They laughed and clap hands whenever they saw me. They said unpleasant things about me when I walked past them, no fear, no feelings whatsoever.
I got tired of their bulling that I almost physically attacked one of them in the bathroom. Cut long story short. I NEVER returned to campus hostel, lived out side campus till i left school. Fast forward 2018, one of them just became my account officer. Wont mention the bank but I just withdrew every Kobo I had in the bank qnd politely asked that I wanted the account disabled. End of story. ??? it felt good doing it last night. Too good.”
She also said she has no compassion for bullies, saying if ever she has bullied anyone before, when they see her, they should treat her like trash. She then said:
“No! bullies are not allowed to see me shine because i lock them out when i see them”
As expected, Nigerians had their say, while some praised her move, others chided her for the steps she took. See some of the reactions:
oseniifedolapoanthonia: hahahahahaha.. if its me sef ill ask them to sack her until she asks for forgiveness. bullying is not good. some weak people dont survive it, some get affected psychologically. na wa

souveniretc: Success is the best revenge.
adaezeenechukwu: so what have u gained? She might be more mature now you know and then you both can have a great relationship
hotbody_collections: Lol.. That’s petty tho.
royal_rita: Hmm… Life is in turns, never despise anyone.
?????????
duch.official: What goes around comes around, I wish all the people that hurt me know this
fairyglowtherapy: Well that was years ago. What happens do forgiveness? You paid back last night but you don’t know what tomorrow holds. Tomorrow is never promised ?
oseniifedolapoanthonia: hahahahahaha.. if its me sef ill ask them to sack her until she asks for forgiveness. bullying is not good. some weak people dont survive it, some get affected psychologically. na wa
pbaoriginal: I’m sure they’re on
fairyglowtherapy: Well that was years ago. What happens do forgiveness? You paid back last night but you don’t know what tomorrow holds. Tomorrow is never promised ?
pwettydol: Exactly what I can do. Then let her know why I did it. Savage??
xpensiv123 :You should not have done that. You have passed that level.
mo_hair_extension:: Simple called law of KARMA
theshoeshopnig: I understand you and it’s legit. It’s just, most people have changed and become better people than we were way back. I’m sure you’ve grown too and learnt so much since Uni. Same for her.
austindwater_ilukho: Fine, but u need to make dat girl learn from her mistakes in other words to share dat story whereever she goes, d spirit of 4giveness should b paramount in dis situation and by dat u able to bless more pple wit ur story. Godbless
preciouskosiso_cy: I know that feeling, so sweet
sharon_rose_o: Hmmm….unilag girls like bullying a lot. I know of a unilag girl that committed suicide sometimes last year in one of the female hostels just bcos they bullied her and accused her wrongly of stealing something which was even a setup from one of the evil girls. I like what u did ma, people need to learn how to treat others right bcos u never know where you might meet that person in future. And u never know who might be of help to u in the nearest future @lauraikeji
adaezeenechukwu- Laura Ikeji: ?? you are something else. But really I think keeping a relationship with her (although with a long spoon) will make her realise that she was being foolish back at school apart from the fact that it shows maturity at your end?
elite_events_magazine: You have the last laugh ????
priscillaoyin:Wow! See life…
tagdesigns15:I know that feelin
obianujuchukwudozie: Hi Laura, I know how it feels but do you know what, you can just remind her of what she did and tell her that in life you treat people nice because you don’t know where you will need each other. You leave her the guilt will keep hunting her. You don’t need to use the account. You can just use it very skeletal but am very sure she will come begging you.
isypoppins: You shouldnt have done that. If i were u, i did keep the account active and give her hell. Call everytime to ask for this and that, report to her superiors that my accounts officer is not fast, unprofessional, too fat, too thin, wore red on Monday etc. Make her pay. Afterall, u are technically her boss as the client. Hehehehe …Laura Ikeji
oaikhienangloria2-Laura Ikeji , v u heard of d saying “d best revenge to give to ur enemies is to be successful” bullies n critics make us stronger,aim higher n determined. Businessmen don’t create enemies. If dangote n otedola r to punish people, many will be wretched….BE HUMBLE WIT UR LITTLE CHANGE…
P.S dat girl will hate u foreva n if anytin happen to her job or commission for dis month, jus know dat d enemity battle had jus begun…if na me,I go do u back
omalicharxifyHey-Laura Ikeji …I have admired most of the things u do here on ur page, but this one.i didn’t find it nice.though it might not change anything…God lifted for his name to be praise and not for you to revenge.i guess u could have preached love to her by not closing that account..u may have converted her..I feel revenge is a heavy ladden and negative energy and honestly u don’t need that .. U may think u felt nice.but trust me..it would only be temporary…again it’s your life though.
lina_bellefille-LauraI Ikeji: I understand biko,some things can’t easily be forgotten besides, if this happened in sec sch,it can be overlooked cuz chics weren’t mature then buh mehn,as for Uni,she was a full grown adult and intentionally hurt you
aqnex_chet: Whoa…. Revenge at it’s peak
usangelemi I understand what it is to be in that situation,in my own case her second left my school to school abroad,Choi I gave her the beaten of her life, fast forward to last year still saw her waiting for a bus and splashed rain water on her,Laura Ikeji I almost an mad when they used to laugh at me seriously.
whitney_cynthias Since she don’t like you at first time, I don’t think she will see anything good in you laura ikeji please don’t near her.
elegboseoluvicky: What goes around comes around…. Small world we live in
ma_steveAwww, momma, but I don’t think you really felt good doing that, I mean God didn’t bless and uplift you for you to be vindictive like this, the fact that she’s your account officer is enough to make her miserable and feel guilty for her wrong doing, anyways sha what do I know, I love you biko
