Freedom Okpetoritse Atsepoyi, Nigerian comedian better known as Mr Jollof, says he was kidnapped at gunpoint.
The entertainer broke the news in a brief post via his Instagram page on Thursday, wherein he appreciated God for keeping him alive.
Mr Jollof said he was able to escape from his kidnappers after the intervention of security operatives.
The Warri-born comedian, however, did not state how and when the incident took place.
“Thank God for life I was kidnapped at gunpoint but the intervention of the Nigeria Police Force I was able to escape!! My MTN phone was stolen,” he wrote.
The comedian also accompanied the post with a cryptic note which reads: “the truth is bitter when pride is empty.”
TheNewsGuru recalls that Mr Macaroni, his colleague, had lamented over the insecurity in the country after the NDA attack
“The invasion of the NDA is a pointer to how emboldened Bandits and Terrorists have become in our Country. It is also a reality check. If the NDA can be attacked and military men kidnapped then who is safe in Nigeria?” he had asked.
“I’m just so tired of everything!!! Knowing that no one is safe in our own country is just so heartbreaking. Nigeria is so blessed yet the people suffer! Even in our struggle to survive, there is no security of loves and property.”
