I Took A Lady Who Owed Me To Lonely Place, I Asked Her To Remove Her Cloth And I Videoed Her – Suspect

A moneylender, Ahmed Usman, has confessed to sexually assaulting a female debtor and recording her without her consent after she failed to meet the repayment terms of a N600,000 loan he gave her.

Usman made the confession in a video shared by the Spokesperson for the FCT Police Command, SP Josephine Adeh, on her official Facebook page.

In the video, Usman said the woman had been repaying the loan in weekly instalments of N30,000 without fail until she defaulted on one payment.

He explained that he invited her to meet him, took her in his car to an isolated location and ordered her to undress.

Usman admitted that he recorded her in that state and then sexually assaulted her.

Police Parade Suspect After Confession

The FCT Police Command said Usman is currently in custody and is being investigated for the alleged assault and unlawful recording of the victim.

Police sources said the video evidence and the suspect’s own confession will form part of the investigation, while the victim is also expected to be given necessary support.

The Command warned members of the public against taking the law into their own hands over loan disputes, stressing that debt recovery must follow legal procedures.

Usman also appealed for forgiveness and expressed regret over his actions. He apologised to his wife and children, pleading for a second chance and promising to become a better father and citizen.

According to him: “I loan money to women, so this fateful woman took 600 thousand naira loan from me. Normally she used to pay 30 thousand naira weekly unfailing. The day she defaulted to pay, I invited her over, she came to my car and I took her to a lonely place where I asked her to take off her dress. So after videoing her, I made love to her.”

Outrage Over Abuse Of Power

The confession has sparked outrage on social media, with many Nigerians condemning the act and calling for the suspect to face the full weight of the law.

Others have called on the authorities to ensure the victim gets justice and protection, and that the recorded video is not circulated further.

The police have assured that the matter will be thoroughly investigated and charged to court.
