Fashion entrepreneur Sharon Ojong on Sunday shared via her Instagram handle how her drink was spiked at a club over the weekend.
She says she has just one suspect, a man who was all over her on that day, who also kept pestering her for a dance. She also added that there was something very creepy about him.
Although Sharon is safe – Thank God, She said she shared the story because women have been silent for too long and this behavior should not be tolerated. She also added that the situation is being dealt with legally.
We’re thankful that Sharon is safe and that the situation didn’t escalate.
She shared a video explaining the events of the night and wrote:
I’m so grateful to God for being with me as well as having a proactive friend who was with me and got me out of there ASAP.
Although I’ve spoken to medical professionals and taken what I needed to get the acid and ingredients out of my system, the past 48hrs have been long and restless with the drug in my system. I feel extremely disparaged.
For a second, I feared speaking out will attract ill-mannered and uncouth comments but he chose the wrong woman. I refuse to be discouraged and silent.
Over two hundred women are being raped daily, with less than a hundred reporting to the police.
Very few of these cases will be investigated, prosecuted, and no more than ten will result in a conviction and lenient sentence (with most perpetrators end up serving half their sentence). Most times nothing else has been done to pursue the investigation simply because victims can’t provide any information to take this investigation further.
But thank God for social media, these type of men need to be shamed!
P/S – For legal reasons, this post was taken down for more investigation. But back up now because I have never doubted my instincts and my suspect is blatantly lying instead of owning up and apologizing for attempting to kill or rape me.
This is to implore every woman out there to please be extra vigilant and stay safe while enjoying night life.
