Veteran actress Sola Sobowale has opened up about the near career-damaging impact of drug peddling allegations. “The only thing that bothers me is the fact that they said I was killed in Saudi Arabia. That I carried cocaine. Yes, it was written in Nigeria that I carried cocaine in Saudi Arabia. They arrested me, amputated my leg and my hand, and I supposedly pleaded with them, saying that I was a star in Nigeria and because of that, they should kill me, so they killed me.”

It’s essential to acknowledge that news production incurs expenses, and we take pride in never placing our stories behind a prohibitive paywall. The actress stated that before she left Nigeria for the UK, she owned a restaurant named ‘Sola’s Kitchen’. At Premium Times, we firmly believe in the importance of high-quality journalism. Recognizing that not everyone can afford costly news subscriptions, we are dedicated to delivering meticulously researched, fact-checked news that remains freely accessible to all.
