Reality TV star Kiddwaya, known for his stint on Big Brother Naija, recently revealed that his villa in Ibiza was raided, resulting in the theft of approximately €70,000 and a Birkin bag.
Kiddwaya took to Instagram on July 2, 2024, to share the alarming news with his followers, urging caution for Nigerians travelling to Europe, particularly those staying in villas.
Kiddwaya recounted the incident, stating, “What’s up, guys? So something crazy happened last night. For the second time, I was robbed in Ibiza at the villa I was staying in.
The last time this happened was in 2022, when they stole a watch and cash, but this time it happened around 3 am. They came in and stole about 70,000 euros; they stole one of the girls’ Birkin bags; it was a lick.”
He continued by offering safety tips for travellers, emphasizing the importance of security personnel and private drivers. “All my rich Nigerians, when you travel to these places, be careful with all these villas. What they do is a sting operation, from cleaners to taxi drivers and the police, everybody is involved.”
Kiddwaya highlighted the need for extra precautions, saying, “Nigerians who have money and are travelling to Europe, if you’re going to a villa, be very careful. Make sure you have extra security. Make sure you have bouncers and people walking on the property day and night. Don’t get a regular taxi; always have a private driver because the local taxis are in on it. Also, be careful with your maid; she is the one who goes into the room and knows where the money is and where everything is kept. So if you’re travelling to Europe this summer, be very guided.”
