A 23-year old housemaid, Rita Emmanuel, has been charged to court for allegedly stealing her employer’s jewellery valued at N40 million. Rita, an indigene of Calabar, in Cross River State, admitted to the police that she handed them over to a fraudster who promised to make sacrifice for her to enable her marry a white man that would take her abroad. The housemaid was arrested following a complaint lodged by Mrs. Adaeze Nwuba to the police at Zone 2 Command, Onikan, Lagos Island. In her confessional statement to the police, Rita allegedly admitted that she was charmed by the fraudster whom she met on the street to steal the jewellery. “When I went to buy a recharge card, a young man accosted me on the street and said heavens told him to help me solve my family problems. He told me to go back home and bring my madam’s jewellery for him to make a sacrifice for me. “He promised me that after the sacrifice, all my enemies in my family will die and I would be able to marry a white man that will take me abroad. The moment he spoke with me, I lost my senses, and I ran home to pack my madam’s jewellery and handed them over to him,” she allegedly told the police. Rita said after the man collected the jewellery, he took her to an unknown place with his car along with two other men and they raped her in turns. “He dropped me off at Oshodi Bus Stop the next day and warned me not to tell anybody about what happened. He promised me that a white man would approach me for marriage within two days. Before I regained my consciousness, he had gone,” she said. Rita was charged before an Igbosere Magistrates’ Court on a two-count charge of stealing.

YOU WERE NEVER CHARMED BY THE FRAUDSTER. YOU DID IT BASED ON THE SELFISH REASON YOU GAVE, WANTING TO MARRY WHITE MAN AND GO TO OVERSEAS. NOW, YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR EVIL DEED. YOU UNGRATEFUL SOUL.

What! In this day and age. Incredible! Most people have the ambition to get educated and get a good job. Her's is to marry a white man in order to bring her out of poverty?
No wonder shes a housegirl ( not "maid" - that sounds too posh!) - her thinking is screwed up.
New born babies have a higher IQ than her.
Keep her in jail and maybe a white man from Amnesty International will come and "rescue" her, sweep her off her feet and marry her! And then she can live happily ever after!!!!!!!

But Bross , it's not impossible , The price of gold per gram as of yesterday is USD$ 44.07 , if she has about 500 gram, ( do the math ) throw in precious stones , like Emerald, sapphire , ruby, Diamond etc, My point, 40 million naira jewelry , can even fit in her pocket .

Remember, the fact that the word "million" sfter the word " naira" does not necessarily mean much!
