According to news reports, Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke of a Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos, on Monday, February 13, ordered that Nollywood actress, Oluwadarasimi Omoseyin, who was arrested for tampering with the new Naira notes be remanded in Kirikiri pending the determination of her bail application.
From various investigations, the 31-year-old was arrested after the video of her spraying and stepping on the newly redesigned Naira notes at a party surfaced online. In her statement to the Commission, she claimed that she received the new Naira notes from her fans at the party and that she did not know the persons who gave her the money.
Nigerian actress Yetunde Bakare just reacted to news of the arrest of her colleague as she says, and quote, “They’ve taken this too far as if they have something against her there’s obviously more to this! A lot of people sprayed money at that particular party!”
Nevertheless, netizens also found it strange that she was arrested as other people are still spraying the new notes so maybe the law just wants to use her as a lesson to others.
