Yoruba actress, Yetunde
Akilapa has been caught for the fifth time while trying to rob someone’s house
in the Ketu area of Lagos. The arrest of the actress made it the fifth time she
has been caught and charged for breaking and entering. According to reports,
Akilapa was handed over the Police after being caught trying to gain entrance
into an apartment in Ajao estate, Oluwalogbon area. The fifth arrest is coming
six months after she was arrested and charged to court for burglary and
stealing valuables worth N7million at an apartment situated inside Mutairu
street, Shangisha. Like in previous attempts, Akilapa was caught with a bunch
of master keys, which she uses to break into the homes. After her arrest in
2014, the actress said she needed prayers to overcome the spiritual force
responsible for thirst to steal. “I am not a thief. I didn’t steal anything. I
don’t know what is happening to me. I have every reason to believe my problem
is spiritual. “I can’t even explain the circumstance I found myself. I am fed
up with life. I am not what people think I am. God, please help me out of this
mess”, she said. Yetunde was nabbed again on the 6th of December
2018, while trying to gain access into a house, with her set of master keys.
She was subsequently dragged to a police station in the area, to prevent jungle
justice. Back in July, 2018, the 32-year-old actress was dragged before an
Ikeja Chief Magistrates’ Court and charged with burglary and stealing valuables
worth N7 million. Police Prosecutor Benson Emuerhi had told the court that the
accused committed the offences on June 27.

According to YEN magazine, several actors have tried to supplement their income
by venturing into other businesses, but this is not an excuse for illegal
activity.
