A Nigerian woman has sparked curiosity online after revealing that between 20 and 30 employees, mostly men, at her husband’s workplace have requested leave for the exact same three dates in November 2026.
According to the woman, her husband, who heads the Human Resources department at his company, became suspicious after noticing that several employees from different departments had submitted leave applications for November 19, 20 and 21.
She explained that the unusual pattern initially appeared to be a coincidence, but the growing number of applications soon caught her husband’s attention.
Husband Notices Unusual Leave Applications
Recounting the conversation with her husband, the woman said:
“My husband, who happens to be the head of HR at his company, told me something yesterday that I honestly found quite amusing. Apparently, over 20 to 30 employees, mostly men, have submitted leave applications for November 19th, 20th and 21st. What’s even more interesting is that these employees work in different departments, yet they’re all requesting time off for exactly the same three days.”
She further disclosed that the situation might not be peculiar to her husband’s company, as a female friend had reported a similar trend at her own workplace.
According to her, the friend also noticed that mostly male employees were requesting leave for the same dates, making the development even more intriguing.
She said:
“Interestingly, a female friend of mine also mentioned that something similar is happening at her workplace, with mostly men requesting those exact dates. Now, I’m genuinely curious because this is becoming a pattern across different workplaces. What on earth is happening on November 19th, 20th and 21st?”
The woman, however, did not reveal any confirmed explanation for the unusual requests, leaving social media users to wonder whether there is a special event or activity scheduled for the three days.
