Posted by The long-running rumor that veteran Nollywood actress Sola Sobowale was arrested and sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia for drug trafficking has been dispelled.
During her appearance on Teju Babyface’s ‘Deep Drive’ podcast, the ‘King Of Boys’ star reflected on the harsh press that followed her departure from Nigeria for the UK, including rumors that she had been murdered in the Middle East.
It was because I was carrying cocaine that they beheaded me in Saudi Arabia. I told them that I’m a celebrity in Nigeria, and they cut off my leg and hand after they detained me.
She reminisced with a touch of sarcasm about how she had proclaimed that they should murder her due to that same reason.
Upon her arrival in Nigeria, the 58-year-old actress denied the rumor and went on to say that he has never set foot in Saudi Arabia.
According to her, God has made up for the ill will that others had toward her.
