BamBam calls out Nigerian police as she shares recent encounter

Nollywood actress, Bamike Olawunmi-Adenibuyan, better known as BamBam, has shared a recent encounter with a Nigerian police officer who stopped her. 
 

The BBNaija star took to X to narrate how she was “forced to give something” when a police officer, who she alleges was “inappropriate and forceful”, asked her to show him “love”. 

She added that citizens should feel safe, not uncomfortable at the sight of police officers. 

She wrote: “Just wrapped up from a movie set, heading home, and Nigerian police stopped us for no reason—forced us to step down only to start begging for money. What kind of nonsense is this? If we refused, what would they have done? 

“He was a bit inappropriate and forceful. I came down, greeted him, he asked if I was okay, I said I’m fine just tired. He said “show me love now” he could have asked from the car window, but my assistant and I were down, we couldn’t drive off so I was forced to give something. 

“We shouldn’t see the police and feel uncomfortable but safe. Asking and demanding are two different things. Feeling entitled about your money and tipping because they were respectful and actually doing their job are two different things.”
