Veteran Nollywood actress, Sola Sobowale, has dismissed rumors surrounding her alleged arrest and death in Saudi Arabia due to drug trafficking. The 58-year-old actress addressed the rumors during a live chat on the ‘Teju Baby Face Show’ on Tuesday.

Sobowale recalled that when she left Nigeria for the United Kingdom, numerous negative reports were published about her, including claims that she was killed in Saudi Arabia for drug trafficking. She stated that the rumors did not bother her, emphasizing that she is at peace with God.

The actress also remembered how her name was dragged through the mud when reports emerged that she was selling food in a London restaurant owned by her elder sister, Kike Oyelami. Sobowale clarified that she would often help her sister at the restaurant during her free time, leading to the misleading reports.

Sobowale expressed that the most hurtful lie was the claim that she was arrested and killed in Saudi Arabia for drug trafficking. She sarcastically recounted the false story, stating that she was supposedly arrested, had her limbs amputated, and was eventually killed.

The actress, known for her versatility in movie roles, emphasized that she never knew where Saudi Arabia was on the map and had never been there. She debunked the story upon her return to Nigeria.

Sobowale also highlighted the importance of parents spending quality time with their children, sharing how her parents cared for her and her siblings. She credited her parents’ good legacy with influencing her decision to prioritize her children’s upbringing.

The veteran actress revealed that she put her career on hold to focus on her children, stating that she did not expect anything in return. Sobowale expressed her gratitude for God’s compensation, despite the negative reports.
