Former female housemate of the Big Brother Naija (BBN) reality TV show Oluwabamike Olawunmi, popularly known as Bam Bam, has recounted her experience with a police officer who forced her out of her car only to beg her for money.
The reality TV star who took to her X page to relay her experience said that she had just finished from a movie set and was heading home when she was stopped by the police officer.
According to her, the police officers’ behavior was unprofessional and confrontational, and things took a surprising turn when he finally started requesting money from her.
Bambam wrote; “Just wrapped up from a movie set, heading home, and Nigerian police stopped us for no reason—forced us to step down only to start begging for money. What kind of nonsense is this? If we refused, what would they have done?”
“He was a bit inappropriate and forceful. I came down, greeted him, he asked if I was okay, I said I’m fine just tired. He said “show me love now” he could have asked from the car window, but my assistant and I were down, we couldn’t drive off so I was forced to give something.”
“We shouldn’t see the police and feel uncomfortable but safe. Asking and demanding are two different things. Feeling entitled about your money and tipping because they were respectful and actually doing their job are two different things.”
