Yemi Alade cries out as hotel room was robbed in Côte d’Ivoire
Yemi Alade, the self-proclaimed “Mama of Africa,” has decried the violation of her privacy and the theft of her money in a hotel.
Alade recently travelled to Côte d’Ivoire for the Creative Africa Nexus Weekend (CANEX WKND), an event that brings together artists from Africa and the Diaspora over the course of three days.
This gathering, which is being held by the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank), the African Union, and the government of Côte d’Ivoire, serves as a lead-up to the upcoming Creative Africa Nexus (CANEX) Summit at IATF2023.
She claimed in an Instagram post that while she was not in her hotel room, her possessions had been searched, and all of the money had been taken.
The 33-year-old singer wrote: “A few minutes after I left my room, some unknown people decided to go through my things and steal all the money they could find. Very good.”

They hoped the hotel management ensures the culprits are caught and her money returned to her.
But responding to well-wishers’ concerns, Alade noted ‘they are investigating, looking through cameras and all but she knows the money is all gone by now’.
‘The suspects are all denying,” she retorted while shaking her head.
