May Nigeria's lack of the provision of social amenities not kill us.

You need to take responsibility and stop blaming Nigeria, the owner of the hostel should be jailed, Nigeria has nothing to do with it.

Dear Readers,
I am sharing this story with you because I believe it is of great importance. Although this is very painful for me, I am willing to share this with my fellow Nigerians to prevent this from happening to anyone else.

On the 6th of February 2022, I came across a Facebook post from an named 'Ememakpan Sea Foods And Palm Oil. The post was an ment of various food goods being sold and delivered at reduced prices and it was made on a cooking group that I am a member of.

I called the number written on the advert and the phone was answered by a woman, who introduced herself as Amanda Emem Akpan.
I told her that I am want to purchase four 25 litre kegs of palm oil at the stipulated price of ₦16,000 each, I also told her that I live in Abuja and she told me that she would transport the goods to me at an additional price of ₦3,000, putting the total amount at ₦ 67,000.

Before I made the transfer, I told her to send me additional information about herself and her business on WhatsApp, which she responded to by sending me a picture of her CAC certificate (which is fake)of Amanda Palm Oil Ventures, and videos of the palm oil which she sells and she told me that the business was located NO. 5 New Police Barracks Road, Opposite Flower Hotel, Oron, Akwa Ibom. Her face was not included in any of the pictures and videos she sent to me.

She sent me her number :

Amanda Emem Akpan
1526373409
Access Bank.

I then made the payment to her, and she promised to send me the receipt, which she never did.

After I made the payment, whenever I tried to call her, her phone would be switched off, I found this odd and decided to conduct a little research on her supposed business.

Immediately I typed her name online, a post came up that a woman had made on the social forum NAIRALAND, claiming that she had been scammed by a woman named Amanda Emem Akpan.
I searched the CAC search Engine for her business name, and I found no business with the name ed there.
It was then that It dawned on me that I had been scammed.

I also came across other posts on Facebook from people claiming she also scammed them, with one woman claiming she was swindled of ₦80,000.
I went to the comments sections of her Facebook and informed people that she is a fraud who should not be trusted.

The next day I tried to call her and the phone was picked up by a man who began insulting me and threatening me to take down the comments I made on Facebook or he would kill me with juju. I decided to reach her on Facebook to tell her to pay me my money back, this time the person replying not on insulted me, but also informed me that the I sent the money to is a wallet and therefore is non- trackable.

Further with her proved futile, as she stopped picking my calls.

I also discovered that she has a number of various on Facebook and Instagram, which she claims to sell different goods on.

They are;
Glory Fish Paradise
Jasmine Seafoods Mart
Glory Market Place
Ocean Treasure Giant
Amanda Palm Oil Ventures

Her phone numbers are;
07044554315
08165186974
0816089767

I believe that her real name is Amanda Joyce Mercy, and I believe that she conducts this scheme with her husband (the man who threatened me with juju).

I ask that you please post this story to warn the public and also to aid in the capture of the criminal Amanda Joyce Mercy and bring justice to all her victims.



Thank you.



But you self you funny o. You placed an order from Someone you don't know. You should have done payment on delivery. Anyways, they don show you life be that. Next time you wont fall victim again. I just learnt by experience that once you have been scammed like ones or twice, nobody needs to teach you again. You automatically become wise. No offense though

What a useless country, all these type of holes serving as death trap still plenty for our country and government only cares in looting for themselves, families and friends

The top slabs are supposed to be raised above the ground like one or two blocks, that would have been better.

Quite unfortunate. That's why we advocate for use of Biodigester toilet systems. With such technology, this scenario can never occur and this preventable death will be history! Reach out to us for your own biodigester toilet system

I'm interested. How does this work?

Respect The Dead Lady
Though 2hat he said was wrong. But you guys should stop the "respect the dead" shit. They are fucking dead, I mean useless. Inanimate. So what respect are you talking about? Shouldn't the living be the ones respected?

Update From . COM

A 100-level student of the Department of Linguistics and African Studies, Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, Osun state, has died after she accidentally fell into a septic tank in her hostel on Wednesday February 9, Reports.

From The Information Gathered By , Heritage was said to be packing her clothes that she had washed earlier when she suddenly slipped into the septic tank in the hostel where students are allegedly asked to pay as much as N200,000 for a bed space.

Confirming Her Death to , the University's Students’ Union president, Ogunperi Taofeek Olalekan, in a statement released, said

''Heritage Ajibola, the Linguistics and African Languages student who accidentally fell into the soakaway this afternoon at Bver Hostel, Maintenance Hostels, is confirmed dead!

This incident is highly unfortunate. The Union mourns her. May her soul rest in peace. May God give her family, friends and course mates the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.

It must be noted that Heritage's death was avoidable if the soakaway system was properly constructed and covered. It is saddening that this has happened despite the huge amounts of money paid by students for rent. The Management of the Hostel must answer for the death of Heritage. The Union is immediately demanding justice for Heritage, with a view to forestalling a possible reoccurrence of this.

Amandla! Ngawethu!

One of the SUG excos told Online Source, that the Vice-Chancellor of the school visited the scene of the incident this evening and promised to ensure that necessary actions are taken.

The school authority is yet to release an official statement on the incident.

Meanwhile, students of the school have taken to social media to react to the unfortunate incident. They called for sanctions to be taken against the management of the hostel where the incident happened.

OAU is fast becoming a shirty institution clinging desperately to old glories. So Unfortunate for this to have occurred. Last time it was their unending bottlenecks in transcript applications, now this unforgiving neglect for students safety. Heads must roll

In saner climes that wouldn’t happen; but in Nigeria, lawlessness and nonchalance are the order of the day.

You have said it all. How can someone pay for goods to someone he or she met online without first of all taking delivery of the goods.

200k is not enough for a house to get well maintained, She should have rented the one of 1million naira as a student. Mumu

I had a similar experience back in 2019,I was preparing for an appointment at Poland Embassy.

Some persons were working at the backyard of my house,and I wanted to check what they were doing, I was complaining about the poor job they did and all of a sudden like a movie I stepped on the soakaway slab and down I went but what saved me was my elbows.

I was there for like 3mins before the bricklayer helped me out. There was a pointed iron waiting for my head but mercy say no. She might not have the second chance like I do but death happens to all,when and where is unknown. Sleep well princess,God loves you more.

. The students have no value for students life. If they did they would have held the school to .
Unfortunately, students union governments in all the schools are populated by thieves who use their fellow students to collect bribe from the school management and politicians.
