The Lagos State Police Command yesterday arrested an 18-year-old boy, Michael Ogbogu, for blackmailing a 17-year-old girl with her nude pictures. The sister of the girl residing in an estate in Orchid Road, Lekki, Lagos, reported that Ogbogu, who was a secondary schoolmate to her sister at Igbo Efon, Lekki, Lagos, some time ago, started using her sister’s nude pictures to blackmail her.
It was said that Ogbogu made several screenshots while having a video conversation with the girl and has ever since blackmailed her. He also demanded sex from her.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, who confirmed the incident, said the lady told the police that Ogbogu asked her sister to get money from her parents.
“The suspect was arrested and he made confessional statements. The case is under investigation and further development will be communicated,” Hundeyin said.
