In an interview with actress Biola Bayo on the Talk to B show since regaining his freedom from prison in 2022, Seun Egbegbe urged Nigerians to flee from crime and be law-abiding.
According to him, 95 per cent of those close friends abandoned him while he was in detention. He noted that his assistant, who idolised him, did not visit him while he was locked up.
Egbegbe admitted that he has done dirty things in the past, but never killed someone.
He showered encomium on The Redeemed Christian Church of God for feeding him and 3000 inmates every Sunday after he could not appear in court in 2020 due to COVID.
“I have done a lot of dirty things in the past but I have never killed someone. Famous people were brought to the cell where I was, including ex-Governor Fayose, former INEC chairman, Mompha, etc. In 2020, during COVID, we didn’t appear in court throughout the year. I will advise everyone to flee from crime.
“The Redeemed Church really tried for us in prison. Throughout my stay there, they brought jollof rice, two meat and bottled water each every Sunday for over 3000 inmates”. he said
Recall that Olajide Kareem, also known as Seun Egbegbe, was found guilty of fraud and sentenced to six years and eight months in jail on February 10, 2017, in Lagos.
He was accused of scamming no fewer than 30 bureau de change operators in Lagos of various sums both in local and foreign currencies between 2015 and 2017.
