A Nigerian woman, Cynthia Osokogu, was lured and killed by two male friends from her Facebook page! She was a grad student, a model, and owned a fashion boutique outside Nigeria’s capital Abuja. In July, she traveled to Lagos to buy new stock from a man she met and “friended” on Facebook. The two killers were identified as Echezona Nwabufor and Ezekiel Eloka.The men offered Cynthia a free plane ride and hotel room to help her with her business. They told Cynthia they had connections and could help her access material for her clothing line for less than what she was paying in Abuja. But they had other intentions. Cynthia was drugged and beaten to death. Umar A. Manko, Commissioner of Police in Lagos says, “They used tape to block her mouth, they used some chains to tie her and she might have struggled and then they strangled her to death, yes.” What a sad story.
