In a statement, the actor's friend Kayode Soaga verified the occurrence and said,
“The Robbers broke into his Home at about 2:00 am. Heavily Armed with Pump action Guns, Matchetes, Breaking in Tools. His security Guards were tied down and demobilized.
“Three other houses on the street were robbed with more devastating effect. They broke the burglary proof and went straight to him demanding #20 million or his life. Threatening to kill and destroy.
“He begged and pleaded. They later came down to #3 million naira which he said he doesn’t have. They dazed him with a resounding slap etc. The armed robbers packed all android phones, iPhones, laptops, and all available cash in the home. Also collected all ATM cards. The robbers came with POS to empty money in accounts.
Saka’s security guards were demobilized while the guards of his neighbours were not too lucky as they were shot several times in the arms. We thank almighty GOD for Saka’s Life as he’s doing fine”.The actor is said to be doing fine with his family after the horrific incident.
