According to the Lagos State Police Command who rescued her, Iyabo had been sold to different people and made to work as a maid. She told reporters that she did domestic work in the various “homes” and each time she complained to people that she had been abducted, they beat her. She was on her way to school when a woman wearing a pudah took her away in her car.
