A woman, Hauwakulu Ishaku, broke down in tears after a commercial motorcyclist disappeared with her bag of maize in Abaji town in Area Area Council of the FCT.
Hauwakulu, while narrating the incident, said she engaged the cyclist to convey the maize to her house but that he disappeared with the maize.
She explained that she bought the maize on Monday and took it for grinding and that she went back and picked the flour on Tuesday and handed it over to the cyclist to convey it to her house after paying him N200.
She noted that, “You know; there is this Okada man that I always engage to carry maize for me to my house after grinding it but I couldn’t see him, so I decided to engage another Okada man. I described my house to him; he told me that he knew the area and left with the maize. It was then I took another Okada to follow him and upon reaching home, I couldn’t see the Okada man and where he dropped the maize.

“The painful aspect of the whole thing is that I borrowed money from three people on that market day to buy the maize so that I would be selling it per measure at home to sustain myself.”
City & Crime also gathered that a similar incident happened last week when a wheelbarrow pusher disappeared with a woman’s foodstuffs in the market in the area.
