I was never arrested for drug trafficking in Saudi Arabia – Sola Sobowale

Sola Sobowale, a veteran Nollywood actress, has denied allegations about her purported imprisonment and death sentence for drug trafficking in Saudi Arabia.

While participating on Teju Babyface’s ‘Deep Drive’ podcast, the ‘King Of Boys’ star recounted that when she left Nigeria for the United Kingdom, many of nasty allegations were published about her, including claims that she was slain in the Middle East.

“They killed me in Saudi Arabia that I carried cocaine. They got me arrested and there, they amputated my leg, my hand, and I said to them that I’m a star in Nigeria. And because of that, I said they should kill me and they did,” she sarcastically recounted.

The 58-year-old actress noted that when she arrived in Nigeria, she debunked the story, adding that he has never been to Saudi Arabia.

She said God has compensated her for the negative rumours spread about her.
