Investigations by our correspondent revealed that she was luring fellow friends into lesbianism, a development which even her own parents frowned at. It was also gathered that the parents were ready to disown her due to their position in the Church and was already making plans for the authorities to arrest.

However, our findings said it was the community youth’s planned attack on Iziegbe that led to her disappearance from her family house and the community. She also feared that security operatives will ruthlessly deal with her going by the fact that lesbianism is considered a taboo and abomination by every tribe and ethnic group in Nigeria.

Sources close to Iziegbe said she was last seen in a suburb in Benin City, Nigeria in 2008 when she was trying to escape the wrath of the youths.
