@Big_Itohan countered Mr James’ side of the story, stating that he sat in the car while three guys robbed her and her friend.

The lady said in her post:

“Added maybe because the way they dressed so Nigerians can sympathize with you. Can we both settle this in the station since I’m lying? Three guys came, asked me to choose between making a transfer or getting robbed in yoruba.
“You sat in your car, even when they finished i literally was begging you to start your ride. Your car didn’t break down, you said headlight had issues in the midst of our conversation and almost immediately you parked, i said can we go to a bright area, you parked!! I tried coming out, no inside door in three places.
“Except yours, I quickly came down from your driver seat. Tried opening my friend’s door from outside and nothing. So if you’re not an accomplice i think we know the right place to narrate our both stories.
“And my friend wore a jumpsuit w scarf and i wore a gown reaching Below my knee at least. So how was I dressed? You sat comfortably in your car when these guys were asking me to choose between getting robbed or making a transfer."
