Another Nollywood actor has been robbed.
Elvis Chucks
Nollywood actor, movie producer and director, Elvis Chucks, was robbed at Ilupeju, Lagos on Tuesday, November 19.
According to him,
he was heading home at about 9pm after he finished production for the day at a movie location when he and two others in his Hummer SUV were attacked by 8 armed men.
The armed robbers were said to have double crossed his SUV at the Ilupeju Town Planning Bridge heading to Third Mainland Bridge while he had stopped to drop off someone.
Elvis was robbed of his phones, his Apple watch which he said he was wearing for the first time, 4.5D Canon Cameras, iPhone s6 .6lenses and a Samsung S6. He said after several failed attempts to move his Hummer jeep, the robbers moved him and the occupants into their own vehicle and drove them to an ATM machine at Cele along Mile 2 Badagry Expressway where he was forced to withdraw N150,000 from his account. They took the money from him and then drove off.
In it all, no one was injured.
The entertainment industry seems to be on the receiving end of the lax in security going on in the country. Earlier this week a highlife singer was abducted while singing at an event in Bayelsa state, two days later an actress was kidnapped in Port Harcourt.
On October 17, prominent Nollywood actress, Iretiola Doyle was robbed and injured by armed a robbers around the same place Elvis Chucks was robbed.
