Toyin Ibrahim, a producer with TVC said she was attacked
by notorious ‘one chance’ bandits on Wednesday, March
9.
The incident reportedly occurred at about 5:30am, few
minutes after she boarded a commercial bus at Ketu
bridge heading towards Berger-Magodo.
Ms Ibrahim, who is currently being treated at a hospital in
Magodo stated that the criminals attacked her and four
others barely two minutes after entering the bus.
The Nation reports that the robbers dispossessed Toyin
and the other passengers of their phones and cash.
Toyin said the robbers also took their Automated Teller
Machine (ATM) cards to withdraw money.
Showing her torn jeans trousers to reporters, she stated
that she was almost raped after she bit one of the
robbers.
Toyin Ibrahim says she robbed few minutes after she got
unto a bus at Ketu.
“Two minutes after the vehicle took off one of the robbers
began to hit me. He asked me of my ATM pin number but I
gave him a wrong number. When they tried the numbers
and discovered that the pin was a fake one, they
descended on me, hitting and booting me with their heavy
shoes.
“I had to tell them the truth, giving them the three pin
numbers of my GTB and Skye Banks cards. As they were
beating me, I bit one of them and he became angry and
tore my jeans trousers.
“He wanted to rape me. I was saved by one of them who
warned that there was no time for that. The company just
paid my salary and I was hoping to withdraw some money
yesterday. The robbers have withdrawn all,” Toyin said
“It was a 14- seater bus. I wanted to sit at the second
seat at the back of driver’s seat, but the conductor said
that was his seat so I had to go to the last seat. I and
four other people were victims.
“They were stepping and marching me very hard. I would
have died if they had succeeded in raping me. Even as
they were doing that, they pushed two victims down on
motion. They injured me in the head.
“I am still spitting blood. They stole my three ATM cards,
one phone and the N3,000 in my pocket. They robbed
other victims too,” the TVC broadcaster said.
