In a shocking incident in Cross River State, a young woman known as Pretty Goddess has been accused of luring her friend, identified as Debit Queen, to a hotel where she brutally assaulted her, stripped her naked, and posted videos of the ordeal online.
Our correspondent learnt that the disturbing act, which has sparked outrage on social media, was reported to have occurred on Thursday evening.
According to several online video sources, the victim, Pretty Goddess, whose real name has not been disclosed, discovered that Debit Queen, whose real name is also not publicly known, was allegedly involved with her boyfriend, identified as Ralph.
In a fit of rage and under the pretext of a friendly visit, Pretty Goddess arranged a meeting with Debit Queen at a local hotel in Calabar, the state’s capital.
Debit Queen, unaware of the true motive behind the invitation, arrived at the hotel where she was quickly rounded up by the four girls, and flogged.
The situation escalated rapidly when Pretty Goddess accused Debit Queen of having an affair with Ralph.
The confrontation turned violent as Pretty Goddess and her friends subjected Debit Queen to severe physical assault.
The attack included flogging her with a cane, stripping her naked, and recording the entire incident on video.
Pretty Goddess later posted online videos, including images of Debit Queen in a compromising state.
Our correspondent can confirm that traces of the nude videos of Debit Queen have been trending on X for over 48 hours.
Also, in swift retaliation, another popular X blogger (name withheld) posted Pretty Goddess’ nude videos online, tagging several other blogs, our correspondent can confirm.
This act of humiliation and violence has provoked widespread condemnation and distress among the public.
Debit Queen, recounting the harrowing experience in a video she made after the incident and posted by a popular blog on X on Saturday morning, revealed that she was unaware of the conflict with Pretty Goddess’s boyfriend and expressed her shock at the brutal treatment she received.
“There were four girls in the room,” she said. “There was nothing I could do. She was with her friends and I was alone.”
Debit Queen claimed that Pretty Goddess had invited her under false pretences, initially presenting the meeting as a casual visit for a house party.
“She said there was a party, and I agreed to go. When I arrived, she began beating me,” she recounted.
The victim also denied the allegations of infidelity.
“I know him (Ralph) but he is not my friend. I have not seen him before. I didn’t sleep with him. It is untrue that I was caught sleeping with her boyfriend,” she asserted.
In a controversial attempt to justify her actions, Pretty Goddess admitted to luring Debit Queen to the hotel and subjecting her to physical assault.
She explained that she was driven by anger upon discovering that Debit Queen had been in contact with her boyfriend.
“I checked my boyfriend’s phone and saw that he had her number, which he didn’t have before. I also noticed they had been chatting recently,” she said.
Police to probe incident
The Cross River State Police, led by Commissioner Augustine Grimah, has responded swiftly to the incident.
