Sola Sobowale Addresses Cocaine Drug Arrest, Imprisonment & Beheading In Saudi Arabia

At last veteran Nollywood actress Sola Sobowale has
spoken up on her rumoured arrest in Saudi Arabia,
United States of America and England.
Before now, the actress was rumoured to have been
beheaded by Saudi Arabian authorities for
smuggling cocaine drugs into the country.
In a recent chat with YI, the actress also debunked
his rumoured imprisonment in the US and Europe.
In her own words:
"I don't give a da**. Nothing. They said they have
killed me in America and at a time in Saudi Arabia.
They even said that my hands were cut off in Saudi
Arabia before they killed me. They said I begged the
Saudi Arabian authorities that they should please
spare my life that I'm an actress in Nigeria, but they
refused my plea and cut off my head. When I got
back to Nigeria after the story, everyone that saw me
ran away from me because they thought I was really
a ghost.
They asked me, "Shola, but they said they have killed
you?" I told them that I don't believe in abracadabra.
That it was magic that I used. I told them I
commanded the head to come back, because I was
coming to Nigeria and the head got fixed. I came
from England again sometime for a meeting at the
National Theatre and a colleague of mine saw me and
marveled. She said, "Shola, but they said you are in
Holloway Prison in England and I said yes!" That
those people recognized me and gave me a break to
come home so that when I'm done here in Nigeria, I
will go back to the prison in UK.
She said I wasn't serious, but I asked that when they
told you I was in prison, did you believe the story?
And she said yes! So, I said fine, because she told me
she heard that somebody came to Holloway Prison
and saw me there and that the person even spoke to
me; that all I could do was just to cry. She said it was
that lady who came to Nigeria and told them. If I
carried cocaine and got imprisoned in Holloway,
there is no way the UK government would have kept
me in England till now. I would have been deported.
So, I have never carried cocaine and I have never
been imprisoned. So, all they have said or written
about me is none of my business, because it doesn't
bother me a bit."
On why she thinks the allegations of drug
peddling surfaced in the first place, she says;
"Why are you asking me? Let me re-direct the
question to you. Why are you asking questions? (I
asked because there is a general belief that there is
no fire without a smoke). Okay. You will do me a very
good favour by announcing to the whole world that
anyone that saw Shola Shobowale where she was
peddling cocaine should come out and I will
personally give a monetary reward of one million
(N1,000,000). But the person must be able to tell the
world where he/she saw me, the time, the occasion,
with who and who we peddled the drugs together. I
think that will surely answer your question."
Sola Sobowale said her arrest rumour was peddled by
her haters and that she has been away from Nigeria
to stay with her children currently studying in
Europe.
Few days ago, Sola Sobowale came back into the
spotlight when her first son married in Lagos.
