Laide Bakare Condemns Police Brutality After Daughter’s Terrifying Encounter (Video)

Nollywood actress Laide Bakare has spoken out against police brutality after her daughter, Simi, a minor was left shaken following an encounter with Nigerian police officers.

The incident occurred on Ikorodu expressway, when the police stopped their car according to her, without reason and drove away with Simi still inside.

Laide expressed her outrage, questioning how a sane person could take a minor away in someone else’s car. She described the experience as “terrible” and highlighted the need for change. “Yesterday, I experienced the brutal way Nigerians are treated towards Ikorodu expressway. No agency will ever drive a 14-year-old girl away. My daughter was confused and terrified, not knowing where she was being taken.”

Laide further alleged that the police officials targeted big cars and vulnerable individuals to exploit and rob. She claimed they demanded her ATM card to withdraw N70,000. “They target big cars and vulnerable people to exploit and rob. They entered my car and zoomed off with my little girl. It still feels like a movie.”

The incident has sparked outrage, with many sympathizing with Laide and her daughter. Others urged her to report the incident to the President, emphasizing that change begins with speaking out against injustice.
