Nigerian actress, Yvonne Jegede, on Friday revealed how she escaped being robbed at the Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos at about 9pm on Thursday night.

Jegede narrated her ordeal in a tweet shared with her 11.5 thousand fans on Friday morning.

“Last night at about 9pm, one guy almost robbed me on 3rdMB. I was lucky the traffic moved a bit so I moved my car and then he took off.”

“Under the bridge at Oworonshoki needs to be sanitized. The guy jumped out from under the bridge. They target people driving alone. Be safe guys,” Jegede wrote.

Sharing a screenshot of the tweet on her Instagram page, the actress added, “If you are driving alone in traffic, don’t drive on the fast lane (the last lane by your left), let your car be in between cars.

“Ladies especially, if you can, please stay wherever you are till you see daylight. There is hunger in town.”

The Nollywood star joined the list of celebrities that have experienced Lagos traffic robbery, including music executive, Soso Soberekon, and actor Chidi Mokeme.

Fellow actress, Kemi Afolabi, was left with an injury in January after some armed robbers attacked her with a cutlass in the Arepo area of Ogun state while returning from a movie shoot.
