The 20-year-old lady who raised false kidnap and rape alarm early Thursday, Toyosi Adesegun, will be arraigned alongside the three males who allegedly held her against her will.
Adesegun had tweeted, “I’m being kidnapped guys. I’m being raped. Number 78 Obayan Street Pako Akoka. Lagos,” but later deleted it, claiming it was a false alarm.
The young lady presented herself to the Bariga Division of Lagos State Police Command after public outrage.
In an update on Thursday evening, the Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said, “After a careful and extensive investigation, it is revealed that 20-year-old Toyosi Adesegun, female, is a regular visitor to Olamilekan Faruk, Ayanfe Ayinde and Olusola Onipede, all male of 78 Obayan Street, Akoka.
“This morning, she was restrained from leaving the apartment by the young men.
“Toyosi threatened to tweet what she tweeted if she was not allowed to leave. The young men called her bluff and she tweeted.
“Based on the foregoing, the three men will be arraigned for wrongful restraint while Toyosi will be arraigned for giving false information.”
