This is free advice from an expensive psychologist.
If you're an anxious person, do everything for fun. Go to a job interview for fun. Submit documents for fun. Start a blog for fun. Anxiety feeds on importance. Don't make everything a matter of life and death.
Today, I experienced one of the most traumatic moments of my life.
I had gone to a friend’s place to lend him my MacBook charger because I stay in Ikorodu his charger had stopped working. After leaving his place and heading home, I was stopped by men who identified themselves as Nigerian police officers. They were not dressed in standard police uniforms, which made the situation even more frightening.
I was forcefully pushed into my car, accused of being a cultist without any evidence, and subjected to intimidation. My phone was searched, I was threatened, and I was repeatedly told that if I did not cooperate, I would be shot, killed, or have my car taken away.
They drove me around to different locations, including from Ikorodu to ketu under a bridge, while continuing to threaten me. Under fear for my life, I was forced to open my banking apps and make transfers. In total, about ₦700,000 was taken from my account through coercion. They wanted me to pay them 5 million which I don’t even have, They also forced me to call friends and demand money from them, insisting that I raise millions of naira despite having committed no crime.
This was not a voluntary transaction. Every action I took was because I genuinely feared for my life.
I am sharing this video because no Nigerian should have to experience this. No one should be threatened with weapons, intimidated, or forced to hand over their hard earned money by people who are supposed to protect them.
I am reporting this incident to the appropriate authorities and financial institutions, and I hope those responsible are identified and held accountable.
Please help me by sharing this until it reaches the right people. This has to stop.

Get to know the woman we are fighting so hard for. ❤️
My mum, who has spent her life taking care of everyone around her, now needs help to walk again. If you can, please support, share, or say a prayer for her. Every little bit means more than you know. ❤️🙏🏽
When we citizens begin to see consequences for actions like littering
We would have a cleaner Lagos.
Mind you @lawma has been criminally poor this year. I know two different markets where they have not gone to in the past three months
What do you expect from the traders?
As of yesterday we were able to raise this!❤️
We still have a long way to go, but every contribution brings her one step closer to walking again.
Thank you to everyone who has donated, shared our story, and kept us in their prayers. Please continue to share and support 🙏🏽
I’m posting this to help fundraise for the mom of a friend whose family is going through an incredibly difficult time.
Their mum, Mrs. Chioma Maduagwu Udoh, urgently needs 2 spinal surgeries to regain her mobility. The total cost of the surgeries is ₦21,000,000, an amount the family simply cannot raise on their own.
They lost their father years ago, and their mum has been the only parent they’ve had ever since. She sacrificed everything to raise her children, and now they are watching the woman who carried them through life struggle to walk.
They’re doing everything they can, but they need help.
If you can donate, no matter how small, please do. If you can’t, please repost. One repost could reach someone who can change this family’s story.
Please RT 🙏🏽
My mother, Mrs. Chioma Maduagwu Udoh, is currently battling a severe spinal condition and urgently needs TWO critical surgeries to regain her mobility. The total cost of both surgeries is ₦21,000,000, which is far beyond what my family can afford.
My siblings and I lost our father, and our mum has been the only parent we have left. She has sacrificed so much to raise us and provide for our family. Watching her struggle to walk and live with this condition has been heartbreaking.
We are doing everything within our power to raise the funds for her treatment, but we cannot do it alone. We are kindly asking for any assistance you may be able to offer, whether through a donation, a repost, a mention on your platform, or sharing our appeal with others.
We have attached her hospital documents and surgery quotation for transparency and verification.
Every contribution and every share brings us one step closer to helping our mum regain her mobility and improve her quality of life.
Thank you for taking the time to read our message. We sincerely appreciate your kindness, prayers, and support.
