Nigerian Actress Laide Bakare

Nollywood actress, Laide Bakare has turned to the internet to call out the Nigerian police.

In a now-viral Instagram post on Sunday, Laide accused cops of cruelty.

The Yoruba actress stated that the event occurred on Saturday on the Ikorodu Expressway.

She said: “For the first time, I experienced the brutal way Nigerians are being treated along that axis.

“I cannot imagine how someone with a brain and sanity will drive someone’s car away with a minor in it.

“A lot is happening in this country that needs to be attended to. My daughter was left terrified because of the incident.

“The police targeted only big cars and vulnerable people to exploit and rob. Just because they needed our ATM card to take out N70,000,”
