Nollywood veteran actor and father of one of Nigeria’s most popular pop
Musician Justus Esiri and former President of actors Guild of Nigeria,

belongings at a hotel where they lodged in UK.
According to the news which was exclusively obtained from both actors, the incident happened at TRAVELODGE Surrey in UK.The two actors who were in the UK as part of a performing crew of Wole
Soyinka’s Play “The Lion and the Jewel” checked into the Hotel when they
arrived UK.
The Hotel had three keys, one with the clientele, the second with the
manager and the third with a female Polish cleaner who cleans the
apartment.
But on the day In question, while they were out on rehearsal, they
returned to their hotel only to release that their belongings have been
tampered with. While Segun lost his Ipad, Justus Esiri was the worst
hit. He lost his international passport with various visas in it, all
his travelling documents, laptop, some money and several other valuable
things.
Justus Esiri said he is practically stranded in Queens land. When asked
what has been done to recover his properties, he said the police were
called in. They had a forensic search of the place but so far no arrest
