Popular actress, Lizzy Anjorin, has flaunted her profile as a gold seller and user as she revisits the theft allegation laid against her about a year ago.
She was accused of stealing gold worth N91,000 at popular Lagos market, Idumota.
The development and raw incident she got had gone wild on social media.
The actress, who appeared on a podcast recently, spoke down on the claim that she stole. She noted that it was impossible for her to steal what she sales.
Anjorin stated that someone of her calirer, who deals in heavy gold and other fashion accessories for millions, would not sink so low as to steal gold worth N91,000.
She said, “Let’s establish the fact that we are talking about N91,000 gold when a gram of gold was around N150,000. A gram of gold is less than a grain of rice, so how can I go into the market to steal something less than a grain of rice?
“I am a certified jewellery seller. I sell gold and I sell diamonds. You can tell just by looking at me. I am a certified fabric merchant, and if you watch me closely, you will realise that I am not a simple person when it comes to fashion—I love it big.”
Continuing, she said, “What I am wearing right now is like 350 to 400 grams, and everybody knows I don’t sell small gold jewellery, I sell 19 to 22 carats. I sell the best jewelry. So how can I stoop so low as to steal a gram of gold at Eko Idumota?
“That is ridiculous. I am not a thief; I will never be a thief.
I am just too disciplined and too straightforward to become a thief.”
