Taxify driver in another mess.

A lady has narrated how a Taxify driver almost kidnapped her after she booked his vehicle. The lady by the Facebook name Sandra Sabriel Ifudu, claims the driver waited outside her gate till 4am to kidnap her just cos the fee for the ride which she transfered to him didn’t reflect in his bank account. Read her narration below.

”Is Taxify no longer safe for women to use? This idiot of a driver by name Izedomni dropped me off in my house last night,waited outside my gate till 4am in the morning,then came into my compound to kidnap me. According to him,the money I transferred to him ‘has not entered’,therefore I should follow him to d ATM by 4am! to confirm. If his intentions were pure,why didn’t he wait till day break? Why ask me to follow him out at that time? If this is not an attempt to kidnap,I don’t know what it is. The only person I blame in all these,is my neighbour that opened the gate for a total stranger at 4am!”

This is all coming when the case between MTV shuga actress, Dorcas Fapson and a Taxify driver, Udeh Henry Nnaemeka is yet to die down. Their case started few weeks ago when Dorcas took to snapchat to narrate the horrible incident she faced in the hands of a Taxify driver whom she said drove her to an undisclosed location against her will. She claimed he even tried to drag her into a building to possibly rape her. Luckily for her, she had a pepper spray in her bag which she used to defend herself.

In a statement released by the driver, he claimed the actress boarded his vehicle and told him to drive without disclosing any particular location she wanted him to take her to. He obeyed her for a moment before asking again for her destination. According to the statement,

she got in my vehicle and just as I started the trip I noticed there wasn’t a destination for the trip so I politely asked her for the destination to know where I’m going to and if it will be convenient for me at that time of the night but she refused to tell me and instead asked me to drive out that she will tell me later, I politely refused and asked severally for the destination but she wouldn’t tell me rather she ordered me in a harsh tone to “Move this car”!

He said he felt threatened when she started making phone calls to some people he didn’t know, so he decided to ensure she exited the car. This led to her spraying the pepper spray on his eyes.

I had to struggle with her to get my car keys from her hands. It was in the process of struggling with her, she sprayed a chemical substance (pepper spray) in my eyes.
