Recall that a few days ago a female Lieutenant, P. P. Johnson was abducted by unknown gunmen in Imo State.
A trending video in December 2022 showed the female officer being tortured by gunmen after she was abducted while visiting her grandmother in Aku-Okigwe community.
“She was just conferred with the rank of Lieutenant in the Nigerian Army. She passed out on December 17 after being commissioned from the Direct Short Service Course,” a military source had said.
“She was kidnapped at her home in Ibube. She travelled home for the Yuletide celebration.”
In the clip, one of the unknown gunmen was heard threatening to kill the officer for being a member of the Nigerian Army.
The hoodlum also warned youths against joining the military and other security agencies.
The female officer was stripped naked and her hands and legs were tied. She was seated on the ground in a bushy area.
