Popular content creator, Samuel Banks, has voiced strong concerns over what he described as repeated harassment and vandalism by street boys along the Lekki axis of Lagos, following an incident that left his luxury car damaged.

Banks, who is well known on Social Media for his comedy skits, revealed that his Mercedes-Benz suffered a cracked windshield after being pelted with stones on the Lekki Expressway.

According to him, the attack was triggered by his refusal to give money to a group of street boys who allegedly accost motorists in the area.

In a video shared online, the visibly angry influencer explained that the incident was part of a disturbing pattern.

He claimed that this was the third vehicle of his that had been targeted in similar circumstances, alleging that the same group had vandalised two of his previous cars after identifying him and demanding money.

Banks said that while stones were also thrown at his current vehicle on earlier occasions without causing damage, the latest incident crossed a line.

He stressed that he would no longer overlook such attacks, declaring that “enough is enough” and vowing to pursue the matter further.

Footage from the scene showed one suspected culprit apprehended, with Banks’ voice heard in the background expressing frustration and warning that the individual would be held accountable as an example to deter future incidents.

The episode comes shortly after a related confrontation involving popular streamer Peller, who reportedly offered ₦15,000 to the same group but was still threatened, highlighting growing concerns about the safety of motorists and content creators along the Lekki corridor.
