Cynthia's killers demanded N20million - Mum

                                                             Mrs Joy Osokogu                                                                              Cynthia Osokogu

Mother of the Cynthia Osokogu, the 24 year old lady murdered in a Festac hotel by her Facebook/BB friends said the men had demanded N20million from her. Her words below:
On Sunday July 22nd, she called me to tell me that she had arrived Lagos to collect some goods that had just arrived from overseas and promised to come and see me immediately she arrived from Lagos. So when she did not call me on the day she was supposed to arrive, I called her number and it wasn't going. At the time I called my husband who lives in Abuja and my senior son to intimate them of what as happening. So I went to the police to complain. But when we called the number again, it was going and someone picked it up and said she would come back; that we couldn't speak with her because she was in the hospital. 
They told me she was in Symbol hospital in Benin. It turned out to be a fake hospital. Then when we called again, they said they had kidnapped her and demanded for N20million. They sent me a fake account number. I told them that you people said we should send N20 million but the account number they sent to me was a fake one. Not until two weeks later they now told me that I should not bother to call again, that she had been killed. It was after this that I declared her missing.

  4. Are these people daft? Why are they just coming up with different stories everyday? First, you said you went to the police station the 2nd day after you called your husband, then you said after 2 weeks you declared her missing. This girl was missing for about 1 month, how come it wasn't stated from the get- go that ransome was demanded. If you had her number and it was going all along, why was it so hard for the police to track them. Abeeg, I have a headache!

  5. Typical Major General/Armed Forces personnel. Absent father living in Abuja and the wife and Cynthia living in Jos. All these men do is drop a lot of money and take off. I know way too many that are like him and their children are something else. Cynthia may you rest. Only you and God know the truth.

    2. Isn't it funny how right after some pple write "am not judging" or "I don't mean to judge" they deliver a robust amount of judgment in the lines that follow? In spite of the identity cover "anonymous". Please be yourself and write your opitions without trying to give the impression that you are all cuddly and sweet! My Cynthia's soul rest in peace, amen.

  11. Well I think the girl should be left to rest in peace.. Cos the stories they are coming up with now doesn't make sense anymore... First of all,they declared her missing stating they don't knw where she was,when she was found dead in lagos,they said she went to buy stuffs,the kilkers confessed about everything that happened and now they mom is giving a different story.. I knw she is a grieving woman but she should stop with the Lies... If u were called and u were told ur daughter has been kidnapped,the first thing u will do is call the police,but no she didn't(RED FLAG),they called and demanded for ransom,u didn't call the police(RED FLAG),then they called u to tell u ur daughter has been killed,that when u went to the police to tell them ur daughter is missing,pls some one help me understand this.. Pls the girl is dead,stop bringing stories to make us think she was a good girl who didn't go to screw guys.. She went to buy stuffs and decided to screw with the friends she met,she wasn't lucky cos they were robbers,I think she was gonna sleep with just one and they other guy asked his cousin to come over,so they drugged her to make it easy,slept with her and tried to rob her,while she was using the little strength left of her to fight them off,they hit her hard and she died.. So stop with the plenty stories cos the more the story,the more truth people finds out abt ur daughters death.. Let the girl be.. RIP

  15. There is just something not right about this story, a lot of things seem to have been covered up! I personally think they are trying to give the girl some dignity in death, she probably never even called her mom, so mom saying all of this is just crap! the minute a stranger picked your daughter's phone you should have put every one on the case even the FBI if need be. Anyway RIP Cynthia......

  16. WTF !! When all these ones happen nau? Mumcy said they demanded for 20m , then 2 weeks after , they said "don't bother she's dead" ... Then she declared her missing??? Medicine after death! ...

  22. I guess you people do not know how to peace a simple puzzle together! Daft FOOLS!

    Whether the story makes sense or not this is the Mum's side of the story!. They had probably killed her and was trying to extort more money from the Mum (maybe even warned her not to go to the authorities) while buying time.

    I guess the Mum was hoping that her instincts was wrong of think that her beloved daughter was still alive until she was rudely told that her daughter was dead!

    Please, if you where in the woman's shoes, what would you tell the police? that her number is not going true? or that the last person that answered you said she is dead?!!!

    She was still living in hope that is why is reported her missing!

    So all you foolish Nigerian should take a sit and try and look around you for other stories!!!

  24. My only brother was kidnapped in January in my village,and based on the warning the Kidnappers gave to me that they will killed him if i report to the police, i didn't report to the police and agreed to give them 1million and the money was paid and they released him, so do not blame the mother, it does happened. Pray that such thing will not happen to you, because confusion will make you do silly things

  28. Common guys be smart! The fact that she went to Lagos with her vibrator tells u she could satisfy herself joor!
    In my opinion,d only mistake she made was to allow those robbers take care of her flight and accomodation!
    Infact, the night she arrived with d first nnewi guy,he tried to sleep with her but she refused.That was d disagreement d cannerry waa talking abt b4 he finally brought his cousin in to finish her off! Now they will be hung with a rope around their neck! Cythia is waiting for u guys men! U reap what u sow!

Na wa for this man.This was just an unfortunate case,reason being that my older sister met her husband through face book.My brother inlaw is not only cute,he is very God fearing,responsible and he is a surgeon.He must have met with my older sister some where d first day,and it turns out she is a very very secretive person,she does't welcom others in her business.Today she is very very very happily married,heavy wt her second child,d guy adores her.If this had't happen to d poor girl,and it turns out these guys were d sons of d president of one country and eventually marries her,major would hv said daughter am proud of you.Eye roll up.

  39. mama there is no need to lie in other to save your daughter's image. i know she was staying with you and pple might wanna blame you for not keeping an eye on her. but the best you can do now is let her rest, no need to tell lies. daddy already gave the best advice, never meet social media frds in an enclosed place and that cynthia's death should serve as a lesson to all. that is the best you can do, advise young pple and move on. may God give you the grace to bear your loss and be comforted.

    RIP Cynthia

  41. Ladies, when you see them dressing half naked, showing stupid breast and all that, you think they have anything upstairs, they are all coconut brains and cheap prostitutes. They all the same, whether educated or not. Women are the same all over. She was the one in the news now, yet others will still be victims tomorrow. Jesus and genuine repentance is the only answer. A word is enough for the wise.

He even refused to condemn an adultress but u just called all women prostitutes including ur mother, sisters, ur wife and ur unborn daughters. So think about ur life cos u r d one who needs to get born again.

  51. DeMyk says: Nawa o! Na coconut water dey people head? Whether this woman is "lieing" to cover up or not, her story adds up! There is no way on earth you declared anybody dead in Igbo land if you don't see the corpse. I have an uncle who has been declared missing since 97. To us, he is not dead but missing bcos we have not seen his corpse Maybe, you guys should read the write-up line by line and one at a time. It's written up there that "So when she did not call me on the day she was supposed to arrive, I called her number and it wasn't going. At the time I called my husband who lives in Abuja and my senior son to intimate them of what as happening. So I went to the police to complain" she did complain to the police but would have played along with the boys on their(police) advice. It was when they told her that Cynthia had been killed that they declared her missing.
