Nollywood producer, Seun Egbegbe’s brother along with two others have been arrested by men of the Lagos state Police force.


 

The arrest of the producer comes after he was some months ago implicated in a theft case involving nine iPhones and later a scandal involving two BDC operators on count of alleged fraud.

News source, Daily Post reported that the arrested persons identified as Kazeem, Muyideen and Lekan Yusuf werre said to be the Nollywood producer’s brothers.

Speaking on the arrest, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni while parading the culprits disclosed that Yusuf, Kazeem and Muyideen were accomplices to the Nollywood producer, Seun Egbegbe.

Fatai Owoseni noted that the three arrested men usually stayed in the car while Seun Egbegbe attempts to steal smartphones from stores. He added that the three upon sighting Egbegbe would drive away with their loot.

The Police Commissioner further disclosed that the three arrested suspects were also part of the plans to dupe the two BDC operators.

Owoeseni said: “The gang always targets big mobile phone dealers.

“While Seun, the ring leader, will approach the shop, the rest will be in the vehicle so that when Seun is in possession of the phone, they drive off.”

Seun’s elder brother, Yusuf, however denied the allegation as he said: “”n the day Seun was arrested at Ikeja, it was my boss that told me that he saw the story on Facebook and went to Area F to see him.

“But after then, he was charged to court and I didn’t go to see him, only for me to receive an SMS from him saying that he heard I was partying while he was languishing in prison​.

“He threatened that he will use his power to deal with me.​ ​I forwarded the message to our mother.

“Two days later, police came to my house and took me to the station​. They ​show​ed​ me a petition written by one Kemi Johnson on November 22, 2016 that Seun and his gang came to her shop to steal phone and accessories worth N10 million​.

“T​hat only Seun was arrested and later released without her consent and other members of the gang were never arrested.

“I never knew anything about the theft and the purported petition is just concocted to implicate me in a crime I know nothing about by my brother.

“He sent the same threatening message to his PA and promised that we will come and meet him where he is.

“If I am part of his gang, will I go to the police station the day he was arrested to see him?”
