EFCC to Shut Down Laide Bakare’s Boutique In Lagos

Certainly, these are not the best of times for popular actress, Laide Bakare, as she seems to have been caught in the web of the face-off involving her husband, Alhaji Atanda Orilowo, a.k.a ATM, and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over a multi-billion Naira estate project in Lagos.

Her husband had threatened to go to court to put a stop to the intimidation by EFCC and settle all the issues once and for all, but it seems the man was just bragging. He has not been seen and the anti-corruption body say Alhaji Orilowo is on the run. They've now been empowered to take over his properties...

And for actress Laide Bakare, things have turned from celebration to crises and getting worse since EFCC had got an order of court - a forfeiture order - on all known properties of her husband, following the alleged fraud of about N2.5bn meant for the construction of a Y'ellow Estate in the Ajah area of Lagos.

After placing the order on his filling stations, EFCC is now set to shut down the boutique he opened for her.
