Harrold, 37,  in Agbor, Delta State on
Tuesday, for allegedly drugging her lover, a medical doctor, in a hotel in

Mitchel, who is said
to be from Warri, Delta State was arrested after the police traced her through
a car dealer in Lagos, who was helping her to get the necessary document for the
stolen Volkswagen Passat Wagon, 2001 model.

The Nigeria
Guardian reported that the suspect and her man friend checked into a popular
hotel in Ojodu, Berger on Thursday, January 19, around 5:30p.m., with the
intent of spending the night together.

While her Man friend was in the bathroom, Mitchel went to get a malt drink and
yoghurt for the pair for relaxation.

According to the victim, man friend statement (name withheld) “I went in to take a bath and when I
returned, she had gone to buy some drinks. I took the malt drink and yoghurt
and I slept off. I slept off at 6:00p.m. and woke up around 2:00p.m. the next
day.

“Behold, when I woke up, my personal effects such as phone and laptop
had gone. Unfortunately for me, I do not know any of her relatives. We only met
on a social media dating site, Badoo about a year ago. As I woke up, I rushed
straight to meet with the receptionist and gateman to ask for her whereabouts,
that was when I realized my car had been taken away too.

“They told me someone came to pick the car for her. And she said she was going
to get food. Immediately, I reported the incident at Omole Police Station,” he
said.
The victim said he was just aware of her real name, Harrold Mitchel, after the
arrest, because she gave him Aisha Ibrahim as her name.

He went further, “I was getting to know her for real now.
She only gave me Aisha Ibrahim as her name with these numbers – 08067188213,
07081240038. Since the incident, I had been trying to call her but to no avail.
One of the numbers was switched off, she wasn’t picking the other”.

Adesanya Gbenga, a generating set repairer, who was an accomplice has
also been arrested. His role was moving the stolen vehicle from Lagos to
Sapele.

He said, “That wasn’t the first time I
would be helping her take a vehicle out of Lagos to Sapele. It was about the
third time. First, it was a Toyota Camry ‘Big for Nothing’. I helped her moved
it from Ajah to Sapele, Delta State. The second one was an ‘End of Discussion’
Honda Accord and thirdly, Volkswagen Passat, 2001 model. I moved that too all
night to Sapele.

“I was introduced to her in 2016 by her elder brother, who worked as clearing
and forwarding agent. I was told she needed the assistance of a good driver to
take to Warri. I later met her in Ajah where I helped took a Toyota Camry to
Sapele.

“About four months later, she summoned me to GRA Ikeja. She gave me a Honda
Accord (End of Discussion) to help her collect fuel from his brother at Wawa,
Ogun State. I took the fuel and returned the car. She then told me that she has
gotten another driver to take her. She gave me N5,000 and I left.

He also said, “The last vehicle is the one that has
created crisis for me. Although, I have been wondering where she has been
getting these cars but she told me that she hired them from Delta whenever she
comes to Lagos, and that a driver brought her to Lagos and returned to Delta. I
didn’t know she steals cars”.

A source disclosed that she had started processing custom papers for the
vehicle through the his brother, Mukoro Okpako two days earlier before her
arrest. She informed Mukoro of her desire to sell the car and begged him to
assist her in perfecting custom papers for the Volkswagen Passat.

The vehicle was recovered in Warri, with the number plate already removed and
parked in a car mart for sale.

The source add that “She attempted
concealing the stolen phone when she was arrested. As it were now, whereabouts
of the other stolen, Honda accord, End of Discussion and Toyota Camry, Big for
Nothing remained unknown as she refused to cooperate with the Police during
preliminary investigation.”

The State Police’ Spokesperson, Dolapo Badmos, confirmed the arrest, stated
that the case has been transferred to State criminal Investigation Department
for further investigation.
