A Twitter user simply identified as Kimboro has narrated her ordeal with a Bolt driver in Ikoyi, Lagos, on Wednesday.

Kimboro, who had ordered a ride to Lekki, said the driver did not use her for ritual because they both speak Igbo. But that did not stop him from robbing her.

“So, guys, I got robbed on Wednesday night at Ikoyi by my Bolt driver,” Kimboro tweeted. “He took my phone, my cards, my ID, all my money, and savings.”

“The driver started trying to make conversations with me; he kept asking me questions about myself and where I’m from,” said Kimboro. “It turned out that we are from the same state, according to him. He even started speaking Igbo with me in my dialect.”

“After a while, he begged to pick up something from his brother and said it was just on our way,” she said, adding that the driver had already stopped before she could even consent to his pleas.

“Some guys entered the passenger’s seat and then the driver zoomed off. At this point, I was scared and confused. The driver then started saying he wanted to advise me because I was his sister.”

She said the driver asked her not to enter a stranger’s car next time and then instructed the guy at the passenger’s seat to slap her.

“They slapped the living daylight out of me! The guy took everything I had on me: my cards, my ID card, my ATM pins, my mobile app pins, and he transferred all the money in my accounts, including my savings, to one of my cards,” she said. The Bolt driver would also take her phone and bag.

Kimboro said she was under duress at the time of the incident. The driver, according to her, threatened her with a knife.

“It was at this point that the driver said that it was my lucky day because he wanted to ‘use me, but that he wouldn’t because he doesn’t use his sisters (remember he claimed we were from the same state),” she stated.

“All this while, he was circling round Ikoyi. He then stopped somewhere close to Obalende, gave me N1,000, saying he didn’t want his sister to be stranded and then practically pushed me out of the car and zoomed off. By this time, I was practically screaming and panting. The N1,000 was enough to get me to where I was going, after which I tried to calm down and forget.”

FIJ sent a text to Bolt, but it had not been responded to as of press time.
