Renowned Nollywood actress Laide Bakare has called out the Nigerian police on the social media over brutality.

The actress accused the police of cruelty in a now-viral photo on her Instagram page on Sunday, June 23.

According to the Yoruba actress, the event occurred on Saturday, June 22, along the Ikorodu Motorway.

She wrote: “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.”
