Businesswoman Bo Hairs has publicly recounted an armed robbery at her home last December, during which she says intruders held her at gunpoint and stole cash, gold, luxury jewelry, watches, and other valuables. According to her account, the incident occurred while she was sleeping. One of the robbers reportedly appeared behind her nanny and forced his way into her room. She said the robber told her the house had been surrounded and demanded her dollars, foreign currency, and gold, threatening to harm her and her son if she did not cooperate. Bo Hairs said she handed over about $7,000 in cash, nearly ₦2 million, gold jewelry, luxury pieces, and other valuables. She added that the robbers later found two Rolex watches belonging to her and her husband. The entire ordeal lasted less than 10 minutes, she said, but her main concern throughout was the safety of her son. The businesswoman also expressed concerns about her nanny's actions during the incident, saying the nanny appeared to know more about the robbers' movements than she initially realized.
