A commercial sex worker who identified herself as Olivia was rescued yesterday at Top View Hotel in Wuse, Abuja, when she was about to be murdered for ritual purposes by a man identified as Alex, an internet fraudster otherwise known as Yahoo boy.
In video footage circulating on social media, Alex used cellophane to tape the mouth of the naked Olivia and tied her leg with cellophane tape.
Reports indicate that hotel staff were alerted to Olivia’s plight after hearing her screams.
Upon arrival, the hotel staff and security personnel confronted Alex and demanded he open the door. After gaining entry, they discovered Olivia helplessly tied up inside the room.
In the video, a visibly unconcerned Alex can be heard insisting, “I didn’t kill her,” seemingly downplaying the severity of the situation.
Witnesses report that security personnel ordered Alex to kneel and took photographs of the scene before directing him to untie Olivia. The prompt intervention by hotel staff and authorities successfully led to Olivia’s rescue.
