Veteran actress Sola Sobowale has reflected on the ordeal of being accused of drug trafficking and the subsequent viral rumors alleging her arrest and death in Saudi Arabia.

In 2011, reports circulated claiming that Sobowale was implicated in drug trafficking in Saudi Arabia, where she was purportedly arrested and met her demise. Sobowale, however, categorically debunked these speculations.

During a recent interview with media personality Teju Babyface, Sobowale candidly recounted the details of the incident and how it profoundly impacted her life.

Speaking in parts, Sola said, in viral video;

“They killed me in Saudi Arabia, that I carried cocaine in Saudi Arabia, they got me arrested and there, they amputated my leg, my hand and I said to them ‘Please I’m a star in Nigeria, because of that kuku e pa mi, so they killed me. So when I got to Nigeria at the airport they just went berserk, they said ‘Sola Sobowale is dead now’ and I said ‘Do you believe in abracadabra?’ They said yes. ‘I have commanded everything back that’s why that’s why I’m back.’”

“So when I got to Nigeria, I said ‘Look, I’m alive. I’ve never been to Saudi Arabia. I don’t even know where Saudi Arabia is in the map. So how did I get there? How did they kill me there? So many negative things but to God be the glory, God has compensated me beautifully.”
