Nigerian woman, Franca Abumen, brutallly murdered in Rome

A 27 year old Nigerian woman, Franca Abumen, believed to be a commercial sex worker living in Rome, Italy, has met her untimely death in the hands of yet to be identified persons who brutally murdered her and dumped her body in the woods of Stifone, between Narni Waters, in Rome.

Franca's body was found 24 hours after she was murdered on Sunday December 9th after her friends reported her missing when she failed to return home from a night of work.

Franca was found in the woods with her ankles tied and a black cord around her neck. Police believe she was sexually assaulted and strangled. The police in Rome are investigating the case.

  36. What can one say? A person with legal occupation prays to GOD for safety, talk less of an illegal occupation practitioner. We have heard repeated cases of that yet their likes do not take caution. Or is prostitution legalised in Italy? Let others take cue while her soul rest as the word of GOD prescribed

  44. Hello Linda, ilike the way you wrote about the late Franca saying, she's was been refered to as commercial worker and not as other blogs openly call this innocent young girl a prostitute. I think other bloggers should learn from you on how to use words. All these problems emanates from Nigeria bad governance. selfishnesh and egocentric way of life from our rulers. May her soul rest in peace. She was just a victim of Nigeria's decadence.

    ReplyDelete
  45. What is the meaning of "Commercial sex worker?" She was a prostitute, the most dangerous job in the world. Her death was an occupational hazard.

  52. The Italian did not kill her.
    Edo way of life killed her.
    Yes, there is prostitution everywhere.
    But Edo women have taken it to a ridiculous level.
    And they are not ashamed of it.
    May her soul rest in peace.

You can die in any profession.

  64. Who knows what led her into this kind of lifestyle? People, please don't judge her, that is for God to do. May God deliver all the other young women that are living this kind of lifestyle(whether by choice or not). I can't imagine that they enjoy selling their bodies, they have to be doing this because they feel they have no better choice. God have mercy on us all

  65. They should investigate her death very well. This is hurt and sad. Rest in peace. Her killers would never find peace until they proclaim themselves. Pls this lady don't need backlash.
