Few months ago, a house help, Helen Wilson, was arrested for
allegedly stealing her boss’ Toyota Camry and looting her property in the
Victoria Island area of Lagos State. The suspect was tracked to a location in
Benue State through her Facebook post, where she was apprehended by some
military officers alerted by her boss, Aisha Bulama.
The Garkida, Adamawa State
indigene had been working for Bulama for the past five years at her house in
Block C6, 1004 Estate, where the incident happened. The boss was said to have
travelled to Kaduna State for a wedding last week when Wilson, together with
her boyfriend, one Martins, drove the 2009 model car away.
A neighbour, who noticed
that the car was not in the usual parking lot, alerted Bulama that her car had
been stolen. Bulama, who spoke with Punch’s correspondent on the telephone,
said the case was reported at the Victoria Island Police Division.
