Top social media activist and journalist, Ms Kemi Olunloyo, has narrated how popular Nigerian filmmaker and Lagos socialite, Mr Seun Egbegbe, who was accused of stealing phones, tried to hypnotise a sales girl in Lagos on Tuesday, November 22, 2016.
Ms Olunloyo, in her investigation into the alleged phone theft, revealed that Mr Egbegbe left his house with the intention of using charm on phone retailers at the popular Computer Village in Ikeja, Lagos.
She said however, during the process, he was caught and could have been killed if not for the intervention of some policemen from Area F Command, who whisked him away to their custody.
It was alleged that the filmmaker stole about nine iPhones from a store at Computer Village. He was beaten by a mob when an alarm was raised.
