Popular Nollywood actress, Mercy Aigbe Gentry,
had a brush with men of the Osun State police
command around 4.30pm today. She & her driver
were arrested at Olaiya junction in Osogbo, the
Osun State capital for allegedly displaying a police
cap on her car’s dash board, attracting the police
attention. Another report claims it was because
her driver was using the phone while driving.
According to multiple reports, when she was
stopped, she was ordered to step out of her car so
her vehicle could be searched. Her presence
reportedly attracted a large crowd who gathered
and wanted to know why she was being arrested.
A visibly angry Mercy was seen making calls on
her phone which was later seized, according to a
report by Vanguard
When the crowd became too much, the policemen
fired several gunshots in the air and whisked
Mercy and her driver away. Her driver was taken
away in a police van while another police officer
was said to have driven Mercy in her Honda car.
Confirming the incident, an Assistant Police Public
Relations Officer, Ajibade Egbedele, said, it was
just a minor traffic issue and that the matter has
been settled.
