Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force, Federal Capital Territory (FCT) command have rescued 25-year Promise Eze from the clutches of a suspected armed robber and ritualist in an undisclosed hotel in Wuse, Abuja.

The victim had been tricked into the hotel after meeting the suspect, identified as Emmanuel Okoro (and also Michael Prince), online, where they agreed to meet at the hotel.

When the police operatives reached the hotel, they found the victim naked and tied to a chair.

FCT police spokesperson SP Josephine Adeh said, “On January 31, 2025, at approximately 11:30 AM, the command received a distress call from a hotel in the Wuse area of the FCT, reporting suspicious activity in one of their rooms.

“Responding swiftly, police operatives arrived at the scene and discovered a 25-year-old woman, Promise Eze, from Ebonyi State, tied to a small chair with her mouth covered with plaster. She was found unconscious and in distress. Officers acted immediately, freeing her from captivity and rushing her to Wuse District Hospital, where she was resuscitated.

“Preliminary investigations revealed a disturbing pattern of deception and violence. The victim had checked into the hotel a day earlier, on January 30, 2025, at about 7 am, in the company of a man who identified himself as Emmanuel Okoro from Lagos State.”

SP Adeh further said, “During police questioning, the victim disclosed that she had met the suspect online, where he introduced himself under the alias Michael Prince, claiming to be an oil company employee based in Delta State. Initially, he invited her to Delta, but after she declined, they agreed to meet in Abuja.

 

“Tragically, what was meant to be an innocent meeting turned into a harrowing ordeal. The suspect allegedly brandished a dagger, using it to threaten and subdue the victim before restraining her by tying her hands and legs and taping her mouth shut inside the bathroom. He then fled the scene, stealing her two mobile phones. Alarmingly, before escaping, the victim overheard him speaking to suspected accomplices over the phone, informing them that he was on his way to regroup before returning to the hotel to finish the job.”

 

Meanwhile, recognising the gravity of this heinous act, the FCT Police Command has launched a full-scale manhunt for the suspect and is working tirelessly to ensure his immediate arrest.

 

The commissioner of police, FCT, CP Olatunji Disu, strongly condemned the act of violence and urged residents, especially young women, to exercise caution when meeting individuals they do not know personally.

 

The CP reassures the public that the FCT Police Command remains unwavering in its commitment to ensuring the safety and security of all residents. He also calls on anyone with relevant information that could lead to the suspect’s arrest to contact the police immediately through Emergency Lines: 08032003913—complaint Response Unit: 08107314192.
