Toyin Abraham’s Ex-husband, Seun Egbegbe Recounts Prison Experience

Nigerian filmmaker cum producer, Seun Egbegbe, has recounted his experience in prison.

Naija News reports that Seun, the ex-husband of Nollywood actress, Toyin Abraham, in an interview with his colleague, Biola Adebayo on the ‘Talk to B’ podcast, said he prayed fervently for survival while in jail.

The filmmaker revealed that inmates die daily in prison and he is thankful to God for saving him.

He said, “People died every day in that prison. It is not a good place. I told God that if you truly exist, then I must leave here alive.

“If you go and return, thank God. Know that He loves you and has given you a second chance to live.

“There is a cell for new prisoners; it is called ‘welcome cell’. If 20 people were brought in overnight, at least two would be found dead by the following morning.”

Recall that Seun Egbegbe was remanded in February 2017 after being accused of obtaining money by pretence from 40 Bureau De Change operators to exchange large sums of naira into foreign currencies.

The police charged him with fraud involving N39,098,100, $90,000, and £12,550.

The court granted him N5 million bail but he could not meet the conditions and remained in custody.

He was finally acquitted in 2022, after five years and eight months behind bars.
