Nollywood actress, Kemi Afolabi was recently robbed at gunpoint in the Arepo area of Ogun State.
She is said to have been robbed by armed men who disposed her of yet to ascertained valuables while she was shooting a movie at a location.
The robbers shattered her windscreen, leaving her and her driver with injuries while the driver remained disoriented and confused.
Valuables taken include her phones and other valuables.
In as much as Kemi Afolabi sustained injuries, she thanked God that she came away alive.
Giving the update via her daughter’s phone, kemiafolabiadesipe said that,
I am in a state of shock! Traumatized!!
I haven’t closed my eyes to sleep since yesterday.
I also experienced the highly poor insecurity state in Nigeria which has become a norm. No matter how much we scream and cry it always falls on deaf ears of those who govern us even when death is involved.
My driver and I were attacked by armed robbers at Arepo where I went to film while in traffic on our way back home yesterday, They broke my windscreens, left my whole body with wounds and skin in pains because of the impact of the shattered glass which was forcefully broken while I was in the car, my arm was cut with cutlass, 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.
No matter what may come my way, I will forever be grateful to God for preserving my life.
