Popular Nollywood actor Mr. Ifeanyi Azodo has been
arrested by police in Onitsha for alleged robbery. The Area Commander of
Onistha Police Area Command, Abubarkar Yahaya, confirmed Ifeanyi’s arrest to
the press.
He said: “There was a case against him and we just invited him to make
statement and we released him on bail because it is a ‘bailable’ offence. “If
you want details of the matter, then go to the state Police Public Relations
Officer (PPRO).” “Don’t quote me wrong, I said we had a case reported against
him and we invited him for questioning and along the line we found out that he
took laws into his hands and in the course of our investigation we found him
wanting.”
“However, we have recovered about 80 per cent of the missing items in relation
with the matter and investigation is still ongoing. I said we are still
investigating the matter. It is the conclusion of the investigation that will
determine the next line of action.” Reports say Ifeanyi invited a 30-year-old
man called Stephen into a hotel he was lodging at in Onitsha. During their
discussion, they had a misunderstanding which attracted the hotel management
and eventually led to the police’s involvement.
The PPRO, ASP Nkiru Nwode, confirmed Ifeanyi’s arrest and said: “Yes there was
a case of robbery reported against him. I did not see it as a homosexual; it
was a case of robbery.”
