AGN LEADERSHIP CONTROVERSY LOOMS

AGN ENUGU DEBACLE - BEWARE OF FRAUD!
First I would like to correct the impression that there was a Congress of Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) at Enugu. There was none. The meeting at Enugu was another Peace and Reconciliation meeting, an earlier one was held in Lagos.

It is an act of idiocy to posit that a Court judgement gotten by a member of AGN was "handed over" to a dubious and non existent "Congress". The judgement of a Court of competent jurisdiction is a law enforceable not just by AGN members but any interested party.

The only competent and Constitutionally empowered persons to call a Congress of AGN are the two factional Presidents of AGN, Messrs Ms Ibinabo Fiberesima and Emeka Ike. They are yet to do so.

It is important to note that the reference to the Board of Trustees led by Ifeanyi Dike at the Enugu meeting is a monumental error of judgement. This board has since been sacked by the Court!

It is untrue that the the two National Excos of Ms Ibinabo Fiberesima and Emeka Ike, which were recognized by the attendees of the Enugu peace meeting, were dissolved. The body empowered to dissolve the National Exco are the Exco themselves, principally after setting up an electoral body to conduct National elections. The two National Excos never did and Ms Ibinabo Fiberesima didn't even attend the Enugu Peace and Reconciliation meeting. The purported vacuum created after the "dissolution of National Excos" is a figment of the imagination of the Enugu power hungry fellows who made a futile grab for power.

Those who had sinister plans for the supposed Enugu Peace and Reconciliation meeting and who meticulously executed their evil plans right before the Press forgot one simple fact. The Press coverage of an illegality does not confer any shred of legality on it. Rather it exposes and expounds such illegality.

Our members and the general public are enjoined to disregard the Enugu meeting and all illegalities that has emanated from it, including the "election" of a fake President.

The coming together of the two National Excos of Ms Ibinabo Fiberesima and Emeka Ike to bring AGN crisis to a close is laudable. They are working hard at it. They remain the legal mouthpiece of Actors Guild of Nigeria.
