A popular Yoruba movie actress, Hassanat Akinwande Taiwo, popularly known as Yetunde Wunmi, has been arrested by officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for cocaine trafficking. Yetunde Wunmi, P.M. News gathered, was arrested last Saturday night on her way to London. Investigations revealed that she was about to board a Virgin Atlantic plane at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Ikeja, Lagos, when eagle-eyed NDLEA officials caught her.

She was said to have been injected to excrete the cocaine she swallowed. As at the time of filing this report, the actress had excreted 92 wraps of cocaine (condom-size) and was still excreting more. A top NDLEA official described her action as unprecedented. “Can you believe it, she has excreted 92 wraps of cocaine and she is yet to finish. This is unprecedented. This will tell you the quantity of the drug she swallowed,” he revealed.

The source disclosed further that the agency cannot determine the weight or quantity of the drug she ingested yet until she finishes excreting the drugs. “We are waiting for her to finish her shit before we start interrogation,” he added. P.M.News gathered further that the light-complexion woman would be taken to the Shaw Road, Ikoyi office of NDLEA after excreting the substances to undergo interrogation. According to the source, she would be expected to disclose the baron who sent her, her destination and whether she had been involved before. Sources said she was taken to her house at Mudashiru Awe Street,Yaba, in handcuffs yesterday during which her house was searched.

Hassanat Akinwande Taiwo (a.k.a. Wunmi Yetunde)

For the four days she has been in the net of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), she has continued to excrete wraps of a substance suspected to be cocaine.

As at Tuesday evening, the woman, who was arrested on Saturday at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, on her way to England, had excreted 92 wraps of the substance and continues to excrete more.

According to security sources, the lady was still being held at the NDLEA office located within the terminal building where she was being given injection to aid the excretion of the drugs.

She was to board Virgin Atlantic Airways’ morning flight to London on Saturday and was randomly picked by NDLEA officials shortly after passing through the FAAN security screening point.

The actress, who wore white jeans and a white shirt, was thereafter taken to the NDLEA office where her body X-ray was taken, the process which revealed the hidden drugs.

She was said to be travelling with a few copies of her latest home video tapes entitled “Orun re”. The source also disclosed that NDLEA officials were still investigating the source of the drug and the barons behind its aborted exportation.

Meanwhile, the detained actress has been suspended indefinitely by the Association of Nigeria Theatre Practitioners (ANTP). An official statement signed by ANTP’s publicity secretary, Mr. Gbenga Debayo, on behalf of the association, condemned the act.

“The association is embarrassed, we expect artistes to be above board. Though we are not constituting ourselves a judge over this matter, for the fact that she can conduct herself in a manner that will make her a suspect in a crime like drug trafficking which we always preach against and to the best of her knowledge, is what ANTP will never associate itself with.

“She’s, therefore, placed on indefinite suspension and the association will not hesitate to take more drastic measures if she’s eventually found guilty, ” the statement read.

Good for her
I pray God would continue to expose everyone of them

I read on paper that she's to be tried today.  I wish her the best!

And she wept so openly in the court, the disgrace was to much cos as tried to cover her face, photojournalists protested that the security agents should uncover her face so the veil was using was set aside so they could take her pix

She pleaded "Not guilty".

And she said it in Yoruba

Mi o gbo oyinbo o, Mi o jebi o!

Lol KIt Y did u av 2 rit it in YOURUBA?



@ C-KID Expose 4 wetin? na New tin?

@Jaybaby

That was exactly what she said in court when the charges were read to her "Mi o Jebi o" meaning she is not guilty, abi is she guilty? lol

jaybaby:

@ C-KID Expose 4 wetin? na New tin?

I know it isn't new.
just that a kinda suprised a movie star for that matter

why the cry?
if she was driving a hummer with the proceeds will she cry?
am very sure not.

na all of dem (actors) b theft bt na person wey dem catch b barawo!

edmondo:

na all of them (actors) b theft bt na person wey them catch b barawo!

my sentiments exactly

I always keep wondering if they are not satisfied with the money they are making, thats a big shame, she deserve it any way.

yoruba artists donot make that much,i mean compared 2 what english artists make per scene,peanuts.

as 4 d wunmi saga,well shyt happens all d time,hmmmmmmmmm a disgrace all d same.

but all the same no matter how token the money may be, she got to be satisfied with it, just take a look at the danger ahead of her.

What Danger if i may Ask? who dsnt have Shytes comin ahead

i actually pity her. She has been in the industry for so long, she got the Wunmi name from her role in FEYIKOGBON (a yoruba play aired in the late 80's and early 90's) and this just ended her career. Heard Ogogo did the same but they said one of the wraps busted in him (reason for his strange illness), the guy almost die. I really pity this woman sha!,    

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The most thing that baffles me about her is that, she just mark my name in disgrace.

92, that's alot. she could have died.

How weird, I've always wondered how officals could tell when it's injected. Usually the only thing the person needs to worry about is the packages opening up in their system.

Omg i wish i had dos in me---i would b swimming in money

Ole!!! barawo!

Same 2 u

hmmn!!!

Please I need to submit dis on SATURDAY ---I’v searched cant seem 2 find answers



Techniques in design & dying ---plz frnds help me out
