Narrating his ordeal, Junior Pope said he was driving his car alongside Nollywood actress, Georgina Ibeh and another colleague when they saw a roadblock made with tree stumps.

He decided to slow down but noticed a group of men coming out of the bushes and quickly reversed, stepped on the accelerator, and rammed into another colleague’s car that was coming behind him.

According to him, the robbers caught up with him, opened his door, and pointed guns at him and his colleagues.

The actor said they were then asked to exit their cars and lie flat in the middle of the road.
