A Nigerian lady has narrated her harrowing experience as a victim of a "one chance" robbery after boarding a bus in Ogudu, Lagos State, where a man in police uniform was involved.
In a post shared on the popular social media platform TikTok, the lady revealed that she boarded a bus at Ogudu bus stop on a Friday morning, unaware that it was a "one chance" bus used by criminals.
She explained that shortly after the journey began, the driver stopped to pick up a man on the road.
The driver then quickly rolled up the window, and every passenger immediately put on face masks and was ordered to lie on the ground or bow their heads.
She said:
"This happened on Friday. I boarded a vehicle at Ogudu bus stop going to VI. Inside, there was a driver, a man in police uniform, and a guy wearing a suit carrying a laptop bag."
"We picked up another passenger dressed in a suit at a bus stop. If you looked at them, you'd think they were going to work."
"But as we moved on, the driver rolled up the window very fast, and everyone put on masks. Next thing, everyone started shouting 'Get down!' The man beside me forced me to the floor. They took my phone, my bag, even my ATM card."
She added that the police officer present was given the task of withdrawing money from her account after taking her ATM card. The officer was heard asking for her PIN, which she was forced to give.
The woman shared more details in the video, exposing how the robbery was carried out with inside help.
As the post circulated online, concerned users flooded the comments section to share their thoughts and reactions.
