On his Instagram page, he narrated how they were on their way to Benin for a wedding, and they were on Ore Road when they heard that a robbery was happening, so they parked their vehicle and stopped their journey.
To Baba Dee’s surprise, he started seeing people praising actor Segun Arinze and chanting ‘Black Arrow’. The music star noted that the actor was the only one with street credibility among robbers.
In the caption of his post, the late Sound Sultan’s brother wrote in part:
“My friend, Mr. Segun Arinze, is undoubtedly one of Nigeria’s most talented actors. I once embarked on a memorable journey with him to Benin City for the wedding ceremony of the late Chico Ejiro. At the time, Segun had attained near cult-like status for his portrayal of the infamous “Black Arrow” in the hit movie Silent Night.
"Midway through our trip, we were forced to stop in Ore due to reports of an ongoing armed robbery. Now, picture this: the most notorious screen armed robber—Black Arrow himself—waiting on the roadside with other travelers, all of whom were terrified of real-life robbers. The irony was nothing short of hilarious! 😅.”

“I remember plenty years ago we were shooting a movie around Ajah. Before Ajah developed. Boys came out to seize our camera. I am talking mean boys. From bushes. As soon as they saw Segun Arinze. They went down and started to hail him. He just told them to guide the set that he will sought. He didn’t even say it twice. Theee guys were there with us for the 3 days we shot at that location.
