Emeka Ike disrupts AGN election again, arrests Emma Ogugua


Nollywood actor, Emeka Ike who has vowed to
sanitise the collapsed Actors Guild of Nigeria
(AGN) on Thursday waded the big stick again as
he disrupted the Guild’s election held in Lagos.
It would be recalled that Emeka Ike was also at
the centre of the crisis that ruined the election of
the guild in Benin, some five months ago.

The actor stormed the venue where the election
was being held to arrest the vice-chairman of the
BOT of the Guild, Mr. Emma Ogugua with some
policemen. “Emma was whisked away to Zone 2
headquarters of the police force where he met
with the AIG in charge of the zone. He was
accompanied by Steve Eboh, who is contesting
in the election as President.
Speaking with HVP over the telephone, Emeka
Ike said: ‘I stormed the venue to arrest Emma
Agugua because he was conducting an illegal
election. I have a case in court against the
leadership of the Guild, until the matter is
determined, nobody has the right to conduct
any election under the law.”
Emma, according to our source, later came back
to the secretariat some minutes past 5pm. It was
not clear whether the election continued or not.
However, HVP gathered that at the Lagos venue
of the election, which went on simultaneously in
all the state chapters across the federation, top
Nollywood stars like Omotola Ekeinde Jalade,
Genevieve Nnaji, Rita Dominic, Jim Iyke, and
others were missing.
Emeka Rollas, Steve Eboh and Feberisima
Ibinabo are contesting for the position of
President.
