This morning I went deliver some documents to one of our client companies in onne Rivers State
Every thing went successfully. I even went to the bank to lay some complaints.
On my way back to the office, I entered this taxi

First of all they charged cheaper than other taxis but I felt it was cos he was looking for passengers so I entered.
Immediately I entered I just felt something was wrong but I couldn’t pin it.
It was just the driver and another guy in front.
They drove off immediately I entered— Esther (@ExtellD) August 30, 2018
Then I looked round, everything looked in the car.the seat was dirty,
The car was too rough for a normal taxi.
Immediately I knew I had been trapped. I placed my hand on the door.— Esther (@ExtellD) August 30, 2018
Then the driver asked me where I was going again I told him but he kept saying different things maybe to confuse me. I kept telling him even the other guy in front was helping me to give him d direction.
That was when I noticed they were giving themselves signals— Esther (@ExtellD) August 30, 2018
My hand was still on the door knob
When we got the flyover at at mile one, they diverted and climbed mile one bridge leading to ikwerre road
Instead of going straight to ABA road. And immediately they increased the speedI just calmly asked the man
“Oga Why did you pass here?”— Esther (@ExtellD) August 30, 2018
Then he coldly answered
“Because I choose to”
Then I knew I was trapped.
We were on a bridge so no one will hear even if I scream.
We were on full speed.I had to make a choice.
Either I jumped out of this car or I beg this people to let me go.

I knew begging them to let me go will be fruitless so I held my bag tightly …. And did the needful without thinking twice
And I jumped off.
I’d rather die that way than to die in the hands of those beasts
