Professional make-up artist Bimpe Onakoya and her husband were robbed at gunpoint by armed men in Johanesburg, South Africa. They were stripped off all their belongings, including their passports. Below is what she wrote on Instagram:
"My hubby and I were robbed at gun point this morning in Jo'burg, less than 1 hour after touch down, they crossed our car, four guys came out armed to the teeth with sophisticated looking guns, they emptied us, took everything, my makeup box, my
camera and lenses, 2 Mac laptops, all our clothes, our international passports, so right now we don't have identity in a foreign land, the police have been wonderful to us, but Nigerian Consulate is a story for another day , still trying to find a solution to this mess!!! #strandedinjoburg"

Hmmmm,nawa o even in south Africa too? It is well wt u and ur hubby
ReplyDeleteSorry for your ordeal. Did you get one of those airport taxis by OR tambo.....some of those guys have contacts with gangs. so once you arrive and u opt for their service, they see you with these luggage and the contact these robbers who double cross them on the way and clean you up. i have heard of stories like this. As for me anytime i arrive OR tambo, i just go straight to car hire by AVIS or Budget grab a car and drive myself or better still get someone u know to come fetch you from the airport.
ReplyDeleteSORRY O! THANK GOD FOR YOUR LIFES

South Africa is one country i do not look forward to visiting. I would rather go to obudu
ReplyDeleteJo'burg in Republic of South Africa in particular. The only place I have been drawn to in Republic of South Africa is Cape Town and that is the only place that can draw me to that Country.
