Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) under the leadership of Emeka Rollas has opened up on one of its own and ailing actor, Ernest Asuzu.

AGN’s president, Emeka Rollas said; “AGN had sent Asuzu for a spiritual rehabilitation in the past. We appreciate all the concerns and show of love from members and the public over Asuzu’s plight, but I need to point out here that AGN has never abandoned him.”

“He went for rehabilitation at the Mercy Land Christ Deliverance Ministry, Warri, Delta, by Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin, a spiritual patron of our guild. He spent some months and recovered.”

“Fufeyin gave Asuzu gifts including money and a jeep, after the rehabilitation to further support him. Since he left Warri, we have not heard from him.”

“AGN was not notified of any relapse by Asuzu, to enable the body to give more assistance. All of a sudden, the young man made a defamatory video. We totally frown at this erroneous and misdirected act because it is unimaginable to think or believe that we did not play a role to an actor who has fallen due to hard times.”

“The point I am driving at here is that it is unfair to blame an entire industry for the unfortunate turnaround of one of its own.”
