Nollywood actress beaten and arrested for theft in Lagos (PHOTOS)



No,this is not another movie scene
Yewande Akilapa is not a prominent face in the
industry and is slowly working her way up, but
recently she has been associated with one of the
worst vices that can bring a man down – stealing.
Yetunde begging after she was caught.

According to blogger Stella Dimoko Korkus, Ms.
Akilapa is not a first time offender when it comes to
pilfering, sometime in February last year she was
arrested and detained for theft in Somolu area of
Lagos State but a conviction could not be obtained
due to lack of sufficient evidence.
Another incident occurred where she was caught
red-handed and beaten by an angry residents before
she was taken away by the police.
This is how blogger Stella Dimoko Korkus explained
the incident:
On Sunday Morning of January 12, 2014, there was
a loud noise in Magodo phase 2, No 15 Ibitayo
street to be precise and people were shouting ”thief
thief”! and running after a lady in a black dress…the
lady in the black dress was running like a horse
without shoes, running inside a walled estate…
unfortunately for her, before she could get to the
gate, the security on duty mobilised and caught her.
She was escorted back to number 15 Ibitayo street
where she had been caught inside the master
bedroom with a bunch of master keys hidden in her
brassiere.
Funny enough the occupants of this house are not
friends with the actress and have never met her
before or share close friends with her but something
strange may be the missing link.
A day before their Nanny resigned from the job
stating she could no longer do it… strange? Probably
a coincidence.
The occupants of the flat had gone to church but
the sister to the head of the family arrived home a
little early to attend to her business…*now imagine
this scenario*
She put the key into the lock, opened the door, goes
inside to find Yetunde who was startled and started
stammering, she was asked what she was doing
there and after mumbling some mumbo-jumbo, she
exited the flat and ran with her legs touching the
back of her head… there were cries of ”thief” to
attract others and after they caught her, she was
beaten to a pulp, questioned and handed over to the
Police after she implicated a lot of innocent people
in her story… these people however arrived the
venue to clear their names after agreeing that they
know her.
Yetunde’s younger sister was called on the phone to
come and see her sister who had been involved in
an accident but the sister refused that she would
come to the venue and hung up the phone.
According to the report Yetunde insisted she had
gone to wait for a friend inside the flat….
She could not answer how she found herself inside
until she was searched and a bunch of master keys
found inside her brassiere.
In February 2013, Yetunde was arrested for stealing
a bunch of master keys…she was sent to Kirikiri
prison and after a few months there, she gained
her freedom in November 2013 and in December
2013 she granted an interview describing how her
friends set her up
Yetunde, who is in the Odunfa Caucus of the
Yoruba film industry headed by veteran actors;
Taiwo Hassan aka Ogogo and Yinka Quadri, alleged
that her friends set her up, which was why she went
through the bitter experience, she said it was all
because of a little misunderstanding and disclosed
that she had since stopped her relationship with
those who implicated her. She disclosed that her
friends, who got her into trouble, even behaved as if
they were trying to help her out of the case, but
that they were actually behind her being thrown into
the police net and taken to court.
Yetunde is currently being detained for attempted
theft and possession of a bunch of master
keys….probably the same one she was accused of
stealing last year but acquitted because they found
nothing on her.
