How I rescued a stranded female traveller from hoodlums in Lagos -Ruggedman.

Nigerian musician, Ruggedman via his Twitter page recounted how he saved a young lady from hoodlums.

TRACKING____In the long post, that has garnered a lot of reactions from social media, Ruggedyman talked about the act of kindness as he urges the Nigerian police to do better with security and safety in the country.

He wrote;

”Last night was another experience. Sat up to female screaming. Looked out the window & saw a girl being assaulted on the other side of the express by 3 guys. They were trying to drag her into a dark area. My guard & the street security chased them off.

Her movement was laboured & really slow. We were able to convince her to cross over to our side. She groaned with every step. The boys really beat her. Talking to her, I got to know she came into Nigeria from Ghana two days ago after a misunderstanding with her sister.

She said she lost her things, money and had to sleep on the road Saturday night. The area boys saw her the night before & tried to rape her Sunday night, being here 2nd night on the road. Her granny lives in Rivers state. I took her into my street, gave her something to eat.

Put her in a safer place to sleep & called Ogudu station Dpo Celestina Nwankwo. After briefing her, we agreed that I’ll take her to the station today, Monday morning. Took her to the station this morning & officer Tina after asking some questions.

She said she can make her way to Rivers state. She was sent to the clinic for treatment. We agreed on helping her get to Rivers & by the time I left the station, she had eaten and was taking a bath. Thank u, officer Celestina Nwankwo. I just realised I didn’t ask the girl her name.

Thank you, officer Celestina Nwankwo. You are just a rare gem. I just realised I didn’t even ask the girl her name. ”
