Olamide Sodiq, a Lagos State resident, has accused one Emeka Obi of luring her to a hotel, drugging and robbing her of her personal belongings.

Sodiq told FIJ that on July 15, Obi, whom she met a week earlier at Playland Club, Ikotun, Alimosho Local Government Area, invited her to dinner at Grandvenice Transit Apartment in Ajao Estate.

She said he invited her into his room to drop her bag, but while there, they drank and she lost consciousness. When she woke up, she could not find him, her gold ring, hand chain, perfume, iPhone 12 Pro Max, N50,000 and a customised golden neck chain.

“I met him on Ileya night at Playland Club on Governors Road, Ikotun. He said he liked me as a friend, so we started talking on the phone for a week,” She told FIJ. “He invited me to dinner in a hotel called Grandvenice Transit Apartment at Ajao estate.

“While there, he said he had a room, and I should come drop my bag. I did not suspect anything, so I entered the room. We were drinking together and then I just slept off.

“I woke up and met nothing on me; my gold ring, hand chain, perfume, iPhone 12 Pro Max, N50,000and customised golden neck chain were gone.”

She said after regaining consciousness, she left the room to ask the receptionist if she knew where he was, but she learnt he left in the middle of the night.

“The lady was telling me he left by 1 in the midnight. I asked if she could not call to confirm if I was okay or follow him to check on me. They said he told them he was coming back,” she told FIJ.

“I called my brother to come join me there, and we asked the manager for CCTV footage, but he said the person in charge of it was not around, and that we should return in two weeks for it.”

Sodiq said she had petitioned police in Mushin to investigate the matter and was awaiting a response to her petition.
