The message, which went viral on Thursday, elicited a wide range of responses from social media users, many of whom expressed concern for her safety.

In a follow-up tweet, Adesegun, on the other hand, admitted that her statement was false and apologized.

The 20-year-old also shared a short clip to reassure her followers that she was okay.

“I was not kidnapped or raped. I am fine and I am not making this video under duress or anything. I am very okay. I am in my house. Please stop calling or threatening those numbers. Thank you very much,” she said in the clip.

Many people on social media chastised her for her actions, and some even advocated for her imprisonment.

SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the state Police Public Relations Officer, said Adesegun was detained for providing false information, and three others, Olamilekan Faruk, Ayanfe Ayinde, and Olusola Onipede, were arrested for holding her against her will.

The PPRO said, “After a careful and extensive investigation, it was revealed that 20-year-old Toyosi Adesegun is a regular visitor to Olamilekan Faruk, Ayanfe Ayinde, and Olusola Onipede at No 78, Obayan Street, Akoka.

“On Thursday morning, she was restrained from leaving the apartment by the young men. Toyosi threatened to tweet what she tweeted if she was not allowed to leave. The young men called her bluff and she tweeted.

“Based on the foregoing, the three men will be arraigned for wrongful restraint, while Toyosi will be arraigned for giving false information.”
