<p>Narrating her ordeal, the comedian revealed that the alarming incident occurred on October 20, 2023, along the Alapere highway in Lagos around 5 a.m.</p>
<p>According to her, after completing a gig and was driving home, she got confused by the navigational system she was using and was forced to park her car to figure out her way.</p>
<p>According to the Enugu State indigene, the moment she parked her car, she found herself annexed by two vehicles – one in front and the other at her back.</p>

<p>After stepping out of the vehicles, the policemen demanded that she follow them without mentioning any offense she had committed. They also tried to force her to an undisclosed destination.</p>
<p>The comedian stated that after a heated debate, she ultimately agreed to allow one officer access into her car while the others followed in separate cars.</p>
<p>She tried to do a live Instagram feed for safety on the way to the station, but the policeman blocked her and grabbed her phone violently.</p>

<p>She claimed that during the altercation, the policeman tried to steal her car, but onlookers stepped in and the officers quickly left.</p>
<p>The skit maker claimed that when they left, she realized her purse, which contained priceless stuff including earrings and money in both dollars and naira, was missing.</p>
<p>She said that her efforts to report the incident at various police divisions proved futile. This was until a police officer, who was her fan, acknowledged the involved officer’s identity.</p>
<p>Ekwutousi Philo said her efforts to fish out the police officers involved and retrieve her stolen properties have been futile.</p>
