Movie Producer Seun Egbegbe Reportedly Regains Freedom After 3 Years And Six Months In Prison

Nollywood producer, Olajide Kareem, aka Seun Egbegbe has regained his freedom after spending roughly three years and six months in custody.

Egbegbe was set free on October 11, 2022




The filmmaker was incarcerated on February 10, 2017, after allegedly obtaining money by false pretence from no fewer than 40 bureaus de change operators in different parts of Lagos from 2015 to 2017.


Egbegbe was alleged to have swindled the BDC operators out of money by claiming that he had naira to change into foreign currencies and vice versa.


He was arraigned by the police for a series of frauds involving N39,098,100, $90,000 and £12,550.

Egbegbe alongside one Oyekan Ayomide were first arraigned on February 10, 2017, before Justice Oluremi Oguntoyinbo, on 36 counts bordering on advance fee fraud.

The charge sheet was subsequently amended twice, with the counts eventually increased to 40 and three other defendants – Lawal Kareem, Olalekan Yusuf and Muyideen Shoyombo – added.

The prosecuting counsel for the police, Innocent Anyigor, said Egbegbe and the other defendants acted contrary to Section 8 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act 2006 and were liable to be punished under Section 1(3) of the same Act.

Justice Oluremi Oguntoyinbo declared that 43 of the 44 Count charges were crumbled because of a lack of witnesses to substantiate their claims.


The Judge also said that the prosecuting team did not produce evidence, to be backed with witnesses on Counts 4, 19 and 21.

On the issue that police tampered with the money recovered from the suspects, Justice Oguntoyinbo ruled that all the money recovered from Egbegbe as evidence should be returned to him.

    1. Why would Toyin be embarrassed. Abacha' s kids are walking freely and majestically. Was Toyin related to him or was she a part of his dubious deeds? In fact,Toyin will always be seen as a victim of this fellow. Do you recall what he put her through. Lizzy Anjorin was the one rooting for this guy...using his case to malign Toyin through bloggers on Facebook. So...
