Nollywood Actress, Kemi Afolabi’s Car Attacked By Lagos Traffic Robbers

On the 4th of January, 2022, Nigerian actress, Kemi Afolabi shared horrific photos of her vandalized car as she claims Lagos traffic robbers attacked her. 

She narrated that the traffic robbers attacked her vehicle while she was returning from a certain movie set. Photos shared by her confirm her statement that the robbers broke her vehicle’s windscreen and the glass on two other windows. 

She said, “My arm was cut with a cutlass, and they took my phones, belongings and ran off! Sadly, my driver also took a hit to his head. Still, I am thankful because it could be worse! However, this is nothing compared to what I’ve been through in recent times.”

Similarly, both the actress and her driver were inflicted with injuries as she claims the robbers used a cutlass on them. One of the photos shared by the actress shows her wounded hand bleeding from the cutlass injury, which was later bandaged in another video. Also, one of the passenger seats in her car was stained with blood.

Apart from sustaining injuries, Actress Kemi Afolabi also confirmed that the traffic robbers wounded her driver on the head with their cutlass. She further stated that her phones and personal belongings were stolen by the notorious robbers. It is unsure yet if Kemi Afolabi has informed the Lagos police about this incident or not.

While making the announcement on the robbery attack, the actress had noted that she was using her daughter’s phone because hers was stolen during the attack.

“This message is typed via my daughter’s phone. If you are not able to reach me for now; you know why. It is well.”

However, shortly after the announcement, it was noticed that Afolabi’s posts have been deleted from her Instagram page.

Her accident ordeal comes days after she revealed that she had prepared for death after suffering the ordeals of an incurable disease with which she was diagnosed.

The case of insecurity on some Nigerian roads, especially in Lagos traffic, has gotten to the point where no one feels safe anymore; not even top government officials or celebrities.
