A woman who reportedly faked her own kidnapping has been discovered in a hotel in Delta State with her lover, according to security sources familiar with the incident.

The case reportedly began when the woman’s family raised alarm over her alleged abduction, prompting concerns and a search operation by security agencies.

However, investigations later revealed inconsistencies in the reported kidnapping, leading operatives to track her movements.

She was eventually found in a hotel within Delta State in the company of her alleged lover, raising suspicions that the abduction may have been staged.

Security officials said the discovery brought an end to what initially appeared to be a genuine kidnapping case, shifting attention to possible charges related to false reporting and misuse of security resources.

Authorities are said to be reviewing the circumstances surrounding the incident to determine appropriate legal action against those involved.

The case has sparked reactions among residents, with many expressing concern over the increasing number of false kidnapping reports, which they say divert security attention from real cases.

Police have urged the public to avoid spreading unverified information and to report genuine cases promptly to assist swift response efforts.

Further updates are expected as investigations continue.
