Oluwole Falushe, was arrested by operatives of the FESTAC Police Division on Monday while attempting to rob, rape another victim.
Falushe, who opened a Facebook account, using a fake name, Nifemi Ajanaku, allegedly lures his victims to hotels in Lagos only to drug, rape and steal their valuables.
He was exposed by a victim, who met him through her cousin. The victim’s cousin, Mercy Nwang, 21, said: “I have known him for over a year on Facebook but I have never honoured his invitation. He claimed to be a bank manager at Festac.
That day he said it was his birthday and since I was not around, I told him my cousin will attend. But I was surprised after my cousin came back and narrated that she was drugged and raped by him and that he stole her phones and ATM card.
I then searched on Facebook but discovered that he had blocked me. My cousin signed in with her account and we saw that we have mutual friends, one of them is my good friend, Vivian, who agreed to help us after I told her what happened.
She started chatting with him and he planned to do the same thing to her. He invited her to Oprah Hotel in FESTAC, but she now alerted the police and he was arrested."
The victim, who said she woke up to discover that she has been raped, stated that she became unconscious after he offered her a non-alcoholic beverage, adding that he took everything and withdrew the N172, 000 she had in her account.
Revealing how he got her pin, Falushe, said: "I asked her to give me her pin that I was a banker and wanted to transfer money to her, which she did. I was desperately in need of money to send to my wife in Ilesha, Osun State for the treatment of my daughter, who is sick."
