“My advice to other girls: Stop engaging in hookups—after my experience, I’ll never go back.” – A Victim’s Story

Olivia Ijeoma Chukwuemeka, the young woman who appeared tied up and unclothed in a viral video involving a suspect named Joseph Efe, has spoken out about her ordeal, sharing her story and offering advice to other girls involved in “hookup” activities.

According to Olivia, Efe lured her through a hookup site she joined in February 2024. Although the incident occurred in Abuja, Olivia is from Enugu, where she lives with her elder sister and earns a living through her craft.

In a live interview with Symfoni TV, Olivia expressed her determination to leave the hookup lifestyle behind after her terrifying experience. She encouraged other girls to be content with what they have and focus on learning useful skills that can sustain them. Olivia also stressed the importance of prayer and avoiding risky choices like the hookup business, which can put them in dangerous situations.

Her message was clear: “My advice to other girls is to be content with what they have, learn a trade, and stay prayerful. They should stop any involvement in hookups. After this experience, I’m done with that life.”
