Tuoyo BBNaija arrested in NDLEA nightclub raid
Former BBNaija housemate Tuoyo Onwusibe has cried out after he and a number of other individuals were reportedly arrested during a raid by NDLEA operatives inside a nightclub in Lagos. According to Tuoyo’s posts, he said the incident took place during a late-night club outing when NDLEA officials allegedly stormed the venue and took several people into custody. In his statement he described the experience as “shocking” and expressed concern about the circumstances of his arrest and his treatment.
While the NDLEA routinely conducts intelligence-led operations in nightclubs and other venues on Lagos’s nightlife scene, there is no publicly verified statement from the agency confirming Tuoyo’s involvement or the specific outcome of his detention. Nightclub patrons have in the past alleged heavy-handed tactics during arrests and raids by the NDLEA in Lagos.
Tuoyo says his reputation is at stake and called on his fans and the public to stand by him while he takes steps to clarify his side of the story. He further indicated that he will pursue legal advice and demanded fairness in whatever investigations follow. No formal charge has yet been confirmed in the public domain at time of writing, and the details of any evidence against those arrested remain unknown.
The situation highlights broader concerns around nightlife safety, drug enforcement protocols, and the treatment of entertainment personalities when law-enforcement agencies carry out operations in Lagos’s clubs. Those arrested may face administrative sanctions or criminal charges depending on the findings of the NDLEA or other relevant authorities.
