Nov 17, 2017 – Nigerian Girl Kidnapped & Raped By Man She Met On Facebook In Edo State Rescued By Police

Social media deployment to entice and abuse unsuspecting and gullible girls has again reared its ugly head, following the kidnap of a 16-year old girl, Victory (surname​ withheld), in Edo state, by a man she befriended through the social media.

The 24-year old kidnap suspect, Michael Duda, was paraded in Benin, by the Edo State Police Command on Thursday, alongside 104 suspects arrested for various crimes, ranging from kidnapping, rape, armed robbery and cultism at the headquarters of the Edo Police Command.

Micheal, an OND graduate of Business Administration from the Federal Polytechnic Auchi, said he got to know Victory whom he met on Facebook, after she accepted​ his friend’s request.

He said as their friendship grew stronger, he decided to invite her to his house which she accepted.

He however denied that he abducted her against her wish, adding that both of them planned her kidnap to raise money.

The teenage kidnap victim who admitted that they became friend through Facebook, said Micheal invited her to come to his house, which she obliged.

She said getting there, Michael abducted her and kept her for four days, raped her and also demanded for N4 million for her release.

“On Thursday, at Ebike village, Ogheghe, bypass, Benin City, Michael, deceived me by inviting me to his house and when I got there, he told me we should plan kidnapping so that I should stay in his house.

“I met Michael on Facebook last month through a friend request he sent me which I accepted.

“I spent four days in his house. He made a call to my father and asked him to pay the sum of N4 million into his own account. He forced me into sleeping with him,” she narrated.

Michael however denied demanding for N4 million ransom, saying that he demanded for “just N2 million.”

“I live at Ekae community, off Sapele road. She came to my house. We planned to collect money from her father to raise money for our marriage but I did not collect the money again. She stayed in my house for four days.

“I couldn’t tell the father I want to marry his daughter. She said her father would not support the idea because she was yet to go to the university. She was with me for four days. The man said he has no money to pay. I was at home with the girl when police came and arrested me.”

Elder sister of Victory, who gave her name as Rodha, said her sister was sexually abused before the police rescued her.

On the alleged plans by the two lovebirds to get married, she said:

“My sister is 16 years old and has never slept outside before. She told me they met on Facebook and the boy professed love for her. When she went to the house, she said the boy hatched the plan and said he would collect N10,000 from our father but the boy demanded for N4 million.

“He will lock her inside the house and called us, threatening that he will kill her if we did not pay. He took advantage of my sister’s condition.

“She told me the boy is 21 and a student, but she later saw that it was a lie. We took her for treatment after the rescue.”

    The girl is a very stupid girl. What did she go and do in his house? The place resemble JAMB centre? It seems the more these people hear of social media criminals, the more they are willing to fall victim. Thank God it wasnt you headless body that was found. Your family should kill a fattened cow to celebrate their foolish daughter that was once lost and no she is found.
    Even the criminal is saying he ddnt ask for 4million but 2million. Abeg help him look for prison yard of his size. Society don scatter!
