Allegations of secret recordings emerge despite court ban on filming.
A Nigerian lady involved in a viral courtroom case has spoken out after a man, identified as Emmanuel, sued her for allegedly breaching a promise following a ₦50,000 transport fare transaction.
The woman explained that she had only met Emmanuel online and had never seen him in person. She stated that Emmanuel insisted she travel from Asaba to Abuja, despite her refusal.
She said: “Before Emmanuel sent that money to me for transportation, I told him he should come over to my city. He said no, that he cannot visit a woman. Out of the blue, this guy just sent me ₦50,000, saying it was transport fare to come and see him. Where will ₦50,000 take me from Asaba to Abuja?”
According to her account, after she did not travel, Emmanuel and his associates allegedly began threatening her. She claimed she offered to refund the money, but Emmanuel reportedly became angry.

“What if I had gone there and something happened to me? You people would still blame me. Women don’t insist on staying in one place, you people will still talk. What do you really want?” she said, expressing frustration.
The lady further revealed that she eventually refunded Emmanuel ₦450,000, not just the ₦50,000 originally sent. She also accused some individuals of secretly recording her despite a court order prohibiting filming of the case.
