In a disturbing incident that has left many in shock, hotel staff in Wuse Zone 5, Abuja, rushed to rescue a woman who was allegedly being prepared for rituals by a male guest. The woman, found completely naked and tied with cellophane tape, was saved after her desperate screams were heard by hotel employees.
The situation unfolded when hotel workers, while on their rounds, heard frantic screams coming from one of the rooms. Sensing something was wrong, they immediately rushed to the scene. Upon forcing entry into the room, they discovered a shocking sight—a woman lying naked on the floor with her hands, legs, and neck tied up with cellophane tape.
The room had an eerie atmosphere, with the woman clearly distressed and unable to free herself. The man in the room, suspected of being her captor, was confronted by the staff. The staff can be heard in the viral video scolding both the man and the woman for the situation.
The quick-thinking hotel staff wasted no time in ensuring the woman’s safety. They sternly ordered the man to untie her immediately, with one staff member saying that her screams were what saved her from potential harm. The man was forced to cut the tape around her legs, and the woman used her clothing to cover herself.
During the rescue, the hotel staff expressed their outrage. They scolded the man, accusing him of trying to use the woman for rituals, a practice that has caused fear in many parts of the country. They also reprimanded the woman for going with the man, reminding her to be more cautious about her personal safety.
Though the full details of the incident remain unclear, many believe that the man intended to use the woman for ritualistic purposes. In Nigeria, stories of individuals falling victim to such rituals are unfortunately common, with perpetrators believing that human sacrifice can bring wealth or power. The hotel employees hinted at this possibility as they questioned the man’s intentions.
Thanks to the swift intervention of the hotel staff, the woman was freed, potentially saving her life. The incident has since gone viral, sparking conversations about personal safety, trust, and the terrifying reality of ritual practices in Nigeria. The case serves as a reminder for everyone to be cautious and vigilant, especially when meeting people in private settings.
Local authorities are expected to investigate the situation further, but the hotel staff’s timely actions have already made them heroes in the eyes of many.
