Nollywood Actress Laide Bakare Denies Police Claim Of Traffic Law Violation

The actress defended herself in an interview on Classic FM 97.3 on Sunday evening, following a widely publicised incident at the Ikorodu/Mile 12 axis of Lagos.

In a video shared on her Instagram handle, Bakare explained, “I was in my car with someone driving me home Sunday evening. I was seriously traumatised and couldn’t drive anymore. When I heard @classicfm973 discussing my police experience, I decided to drive straight to the studio.”

Laide insisted that she was not driving on the BRT lane as claimed by the Police. “Immediately I descended on the Mile 12 bridge, I kept to the last right lane because I know it can be very tricky. Even if you give me money to come and shoot in Ikorodu, I won’t take it. I stopped working in Ikorodu because there are so many lanes there that you might not know which one is BRT,” she said.
