The news making the rounds that got people thinking is about a Customs officer who allegedly raped and videotaped a female friend he met on an online dating platform, Badoo. Customs officer raped lady he met on Badoo
Wonders shall never end!
The problem is these chat and dating sites are supposed to be for good but we (especially Nigerians) have turned it into something else.
The last that was heard of was on Facebook.
Another was on this same Badoo, where a lady from Delta State robbed her doctor lover and killed him.
Good she was apprehended though but it beats me how people will meet on such sites and for the very first time, they are having sex.
Whatever happened to shame, self-pride, personality?
Anyway, this Customs officer is identified simply as Samuel.
The 29-year-old always threatened to post the clip on the social media whenever he demanded to have sex with her and she refused.
Online reports say the duo had met on Badoo.
After establishing a mutual friendship, the Customs man invited her to his house in the Ogba area of Lagos.
Sometime in March 2017, the 26-year-old woman was said to have visited Samuel.
After entertaining her, he reportedly made love advances to her, which she allegedly rejected.
Samuel was said to have left her in the apartment, locked the door from outside and went out.
Samuel returned home seven hours later when the woman had almost become unconscious.
He raped her and took a video of her nakedness.

It was learnt that the case was reported to policemen who arrested the suspect on Sunday.
His arrest came after he sent the video to her relative to show that he meant his threat.
The relative and the victim later reported the case to the police, leading to his arrest.

Meanwhile, the suspect has been transferred to the Sexual and Domestic Violence Unit of the command headquarters in Ikeja for further investigation.
In a briefing on Wednesday at the headquarters, the state Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, confirmed the incident.
The CP said the public would be properly briefed after the conclusion of investigations.
Moral lesson: Be careful. Don’t trust people so quickly.
In short, these online dating platforms are not advisable.
