Born british Nigerian actor, Kalu Ikeagwu, was yesterday arrested by
security agent in front of his house in Ogba area of Lagos around
3:40pm, following a robbery and homicide case.
According to popular daily, he was politely invited, but was about
arguing with them when they brought out their guns. Neighbours who had
tried to step in, stood back as soon as they saw the guns. He was
carried away in a bus.
Kalu Ikeagwu got married not to long ago, by the time they left, his wife was crying.
The top nollywood actor was released around 8.30pm and explained to
his worried neighbours that his personal assistant bought a stolen phone
from Computer Village in Ikeja, and the thieves reportedly killed one
of the victims of the robbery.
He said the crime happened in Abuja, and the phone was traced to
Lagos by the security agents who later came for him since his address
and name were used during the purchase.
People are however curious to know why Ikeagwu’s name was given at the point of purchase and why his address was also used.
