Nollywood Actress, Sarah Martins Exposes Staff Who Stole ₦3 Million From Her Bank Account (Video)

Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has accused a newly hired staff member of making unauthorized transfers totaling ₦3 million from her account, an incident she detailed in a video shared online.

In the video, Martins said she employed a 20-year-old man as her videographer and business sales manager about two weeks earlier.

She claimed that ₦2 million was transferred from her Zenith Bank account on December 22, followed by another ₦1 million shortly after.

According to Martins, she initially suspected a banking error when she noticed the first transaction and did not immediately link it to the staff member. She explained that the transfer allegedly occurred during a high-profile event she attended earlier in the month, which delayed her suspicion.

The actress, who appeared visibly distressed in the video as bystanders tried to calm her down, later apologised publicly to Zenith Bank for initially doubting the institution. She commended the bank for what she described as its swift response and detection of irregular activity.

Martins also said the experience has made her more cautious about future hires, especially as she continues to engage in charity and business activities.

It is important to note that the claims were made solely in the video shared by the actress, and no official confirmation or court ruling has been issued regarding the alleged theft.
