Okey Bakassi, the ace comedian and actor, has announced a N5 million reward for information leading to the recovery of mobile phones stolen during a recent football session in Ikoyi, Lagos.
In a recent Instagram video, Bakassi revealed that the
incident occurred on Wednesday evening at a pitch where he and his friends
gather weekly to play football.
He said the group had allowed a young man who approached
them to join their game. The man allegedly feigned an injury midway and left
the pitch before making away with about eight mobile phones belonging to
players.
“This evening, 15th of April 2026, where we play football
every Wednesday evening in Ikoyi, a young man came to play with us. Out of our
own kindness, we allowed him to join us,” he said.
“He played for a little bit and feigned injury, went to the
stands to sit. While we were carried away playing football, this criminal
carted away people’s phones. Took about eight handsets and disappeared.”
Bakassi issued a warning to the alleged thief, adding that
he would be found and advised him to return the phone within the next 24 hours.
The actor also called on individuals with phone-tracking
expertise to assist in recovering the devices, offering a N5 million reward for
useful information.
“If you’re the one who came out this evening to play with us
and you feel that the way to pay us back is to cart away phones and vanish, we
will find you. It will only take time. In your best interest, you have the next
24 hours to return those phones to the security post where you took them from,”
he added.
“For everyone else who knows how to track phones, contact me in my DM. There’s five million naira waiting for whoever can track any one of those phones.”
