A Nigerian lady has taken to social media to narrate how she narrowly escaped being abducted by a one-chance cab operator in Abuja.
The video of the lady’s account was posted on X by a user with the handle Abujaplug.
According to the narration, the lady recalled that it happened when she was still in her second or third year at the university.
She recalled that she enlisted in an Aviation School to train to become a cabin crew member against her parents’ wishes.
The one-chance survivor said she sneaked out of the house one day and was on her way to school when she boarded a cab.
While the cab was waiting for more passengers, someone sighted the driver from afar and shouted, “You, this kidnapper, again?”
The survivor said the accuser was rushing forward to catch up with the driver, who instantly started the car.
As the car zoomed off, the lady said she decided to dive out of the moving vehicle.
She recalled that she landed and rolled on the ground, sustaining bruises all over her body.
The lady recalled that passersby rushed to help her up and tried to take her to the hospital.
She recalled that she declined to be taken to the hospital and opted to go home instead.
Her statement read in part: “When I was in the university, between 200 level, I made up my mind to become a cabin crew. I spoke to my parents about it and they kicked against it instantly, my mum told me it was not my path in life and I aborted that mission.”
“I was very stubborn so I went on to make enquiries about aviation school and I found one, the school fees was relatively fair.”
“I brought out my savings and I paid, they gave me my handout with my uniforms and every other thing. Every morning, I would always sneak out of my family’s house, order a ride and go to school.”
“The major expense was transportation so I had to cut down on my transportation. This was around Kubwa junction, I started using coaster buses to go home.”
“This specific day, I had waited for like one hour waiting for a coaster bus at Kubwa junction but no coaster bus came so I said let me wait for a normal taxi. I waited but I did not see any.”
“I saw one car that passed, it was an empty car, I sat at the back seat. The back seat was quite tight due to the fact that my legs are very long. I told the driver to push the seat to the front, he told me they do not do that here and that I should come to the front. So I sat down at the front seat and was waiting for the car to fill up. Then somebody sighted him from afar.”Nearby car dealerships
“The person shouted Kidnapper kidnapper you this kidnapper don come again. The person that was shouting kidnapper ran against him and this man started his car.”
“All the doors were still open, the man entered the car and zoomed off and I was inside the car. I jumped out of this car, I did not even think twice. I rolled on the floor and people from the junction started running to help me. I had bruises all over my body.”
