InfluencerVictoria Rose’s idea of fighting boredom is a little unconventional, to say the least.
The 24-year-old, also known asWoah Vicky, admitted tofaking her own kidnapping, simply because she couldn’t find much else to do.
It all started on December 29th when a sinister now-deleted message was posted to her X account, claiming something had happened to her.
HighlightsVictoria Rose faked her kidnapping online because she was “bored.“The influencer posted a fake kidnapping message, demanding $1 million in exchange for her freedom.After the apology, Vicky said she’d take time offline to reflect and improve herself.
“I have kidnapped Vicky,” it read. “She is with me in Nigeria. I am demanding $1 million for her release.”

A few hours later, the influencer started an Instagram Live and confessed that it was all a “joke” she “got carried away with,” and issued an apology.
While she had initially meant it as nothing more than a “funny” joke, she realized its insensitive nature after it was posted.
“We all struggle in different areas,” Vicky admitted. “So I’m not saying this was the right thing to do. But I take accountability and ownership. I’m sorry for anyone that I harmed in the process.”
Her apology took her toXas well, where she expanded on her statement.
“I never intended to make any Black man or any country, especiallyNigeria, look bad,” she wrote. “If it came across that way, I’m truly sorry. I love Nigeria, I love my brother, father, and I love my people.”
The message seemed to put a portion of the blame on her brother who encouraged her to broadcast the tweet to as many platforms as possible, and her father, who reportedly agreed.

Hello,
I just wanted to come on here one last time to sincerely apologize to anyone I may have harmed during this prank. Not thinking things through comes with consequences, and I’m paying for it now.
