Following the petition, the Lagos State Police Command invited the Nollywood actor and got him arrested early Friday. He has not been released as of the time of filing this report.

According to Mr. Akintobi, who is abroad, the Nollywood actor, Itele was accused of being violent and a threat to the people surrounding him.

The petition read, “I humbly wish to draw your attention to my complaint against one Ibrahim Yekini, a popular Nollywood actor also known as (Itele), and his wife, Wunmi Yekini over constant harassment, assault, and threat to lives against Mrs Serah Akintobi and Mr. Nelson Okon, a security guard.

“My brother’s wife and her security guard both lived at No. 10, Terry Grillo Street, off Agbe Road, Ojokoro, Abule Egba, Lagos State. Ibrahim Yekini, a tenant, and his wife exhibit violent attitude and harassment against my brother’s wife Mrs Serah Akintobi whose husband is the landlord of the house and currently based abroad, and the security guard, Mr. Nelson Okon, at the above address where they lived.”

“It all started about two years ago when Mr Ibrahim Yekini and his wife, Wunmi Yekini, fought one of the security guards called Amusa, they battered the security guard to the point of death. The matter was reported to Ijaiye Ojokoro police station and when the police came to invite him for questioning he resisted arrest and till today, the Police division in Ijaiye couldn’t do anything about his arrest.”
