The Ogun State Command of the Nigeria Police said Raheemat Ogunbunmi, the pregnant woman reported to have been kidnapped on her way to the hospital, in the Ijaye area of Abeokuta, last Friday, faked the abduction story.
The Police Public Relations Officer, SP Omolola Odutola, said the woman was found in Kwara State with her father, following an effort by the anti-kidnapping unit of the Command who tracked her to Kwara State.
Omolola on her X handle said that the woman planned the story to escape the wrath of her husband due to the miscarriage of the pregnancy.
Her husband, Lateef Ogunbunmi, had reported a case of abduction at the Kemta Divisional Police Headquarters, following a message he received.
She said, “Rahemat Lateef, who, the husband reported abducted, was never abducted, but planned her journey to Kwara State, to escape the wrath of her husband, because she has remained unlucky due to miscarriages.
“She planned the stories, she travelled to Kwara State herself, she was far from kidnap. She had a miscarriage, frustrated due to repeated reoccurrences, feared her husband’s reactions, she orchestrated the script. Anti-kidnapping team had started tracking her, till she showed up. She is under medical attention, safe,” she added.
