Is Yetunde Akilapa cursed? (actress beaten to a pulp for serial robbery)

In less than 12 months upcoming Yoruba Nollywood actress Yetunde Akilapa has been caught stealing twice.

In February 2013, it was reported that she was first arrested and detained for allegedly stealing a bunch of master keys in Shomolu area of Lagos and was subsequently sent to Kirikiri Prison. She was however released in November 2013 after the case couldn’t be substantiated.

But the same lady was caught allegedly stealing this past week. Sources say she was caught trying to burgle a house located at 16, Ibitoye Street, Magado, Lagos on Sunday, January 12, 2014.

She was arrested right after receiving the beating of her life from residents in the area.

Meanwhile, the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has disowned the actress clearly stating that she is not a registered member. Akilapa who up until till a few days ago was a member of the Odunfa Caucus of the Association of Nigeria Theatre Practitioners (ANTP) has been banned from featuring in any movies.

‘As AGN, we screen all our members before registering them. So, we don’t have any AGN member with a questionable character. We learnt that Yetunde has spiritual problem and she’s not a thief. We are praying that God should deliver her’, Yakubu Mohammed, Secretary-General of the guild told Vanguard News.

Mohammed also added that the actress’ case might not be far from being spiritual.
