It is indeed a sad news coming from the Queens own country which doubles as host of 2012 Olympics host,  it has been confirmed that about two Nollywood
icons, Segun Arinze and Justus Esiri were robbed in their Hotel rooms located in Surrey, United Kingdom some days ago.

According to the news we gathered, the ugly incident allegedly happened at Travelodge in Surrey, UK. The hotel had three keys shared among the clientele, the hotel manager and the female Polish cleaner who cleans the apartment.

The actors have been in London for a month now staging a theatre tour including ‘The king must dance naked’ and other stage plays. They have also been at the Nigeria House, Royal Theatre, Stratford, London.

On that fateful day, it was recorded that the actors reportedly went for their usual rehearsal. On their return, they noticed that their belongings had been tampered with. After doing a check, they discovered that some valuables have grown wings and flew away.

Segun Arinze had his Ipad missing while Justus Esiri was unlucky as his international passport with various visas in it, his travelling documents, laptop, monies and several other valuables missing too.

Though the matter is said to have reported to the police, but no arrest has been made yet. We also learnt that the hotel had no CCTV cameras to capture the alleged robbery footage.

However, on Justus Esiri’s lost passport, the Nigeria mission in the UK issued a new passport to him on self-recognition. This, as were gathered, was done based on his National Honours of Order of the Niger (OON) award.

Segun, Justus and other cast including Olu Jacobs, Joke Silva, Bimbo Akintola and others are expected back in Nigeria on Monday, August 6, 2012.
