After Nollywood actress, Toyin Aimakhu’s ex-boyfriend, Seun Egbegbe refuted claims he was arrested or beaten up for stealing iPhones in Lagos, traders at the Computer Village in the state have further dragged his name in the mud, saying it was not the first time he would be involved in the act.
The Yoruba movie producer, who was almost mobbed on Tuesday for allegedly trying to steal nine iPhones, from a store, is still cooling off in police custody.
A phone trader, Segun Akinola, at the computer village where the incident occurred, told newsmen on Wednesday that Egbegbe is known all over the famous computer village market for his alleged theft attitude.
“Although we learnt he is extremely influential and has the backing of Lagos Area boys and some unknown godfathers, justice must prevail.
“This is not the first time.
“Egbegbe has been entangled in a case like this but before things could get out of hand, everything got sorted.
“He has been involved in many of such cases without consequences, but this time?…” Akinola told newsmen.
Recall that the state Police had confirmed that Egbegbe was beaten by an angry mob for stealing and was detained at the Area F division.
