The
leadership, Board of Trustees, National Executives and members of the umbrella
body for practitioners in the film industry, Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, last
week, paid a courtesy visit on former Member of the House of Representatives
and businessman, Chief Ned Nwoko, to seek his support for the industry and to
help them galvanize support for ailing members of the association across
Nigeria.
According
to the President of AGN, Ejezie Emeka Rollas who led the delegation of veteran
actors in the industry on the visit said that the visit was to first felicitate
with Ned Nwoko on the successful marriage rites of his wife and member of the
association, Regina Daniels and to formally introduce the association to him.
He said: “The Actors
Guild of Nigeria was established over 15 years ago and it is the “Face of
Nollywood” as our members are Brand Ambassadors who project the positive image
of our dear country Nigeria to the world and champions the propagation of
culture and tourism through our movies and with our over two million members
spread across the 36 States in Nigeria, we are indeed the largest Actors
Association in Africa.

Emeka Rollas further said that the Actors Guild
of Nigeria, AGN is a proud member of the prestigious “International Federation
of Actors” FIA and through this affiliation, the AGN is currently working on
twinning and partnership arrangements with the Screen Actors Guild of America,
SAG-AFTRA and as Nollywood’s most celebrated In-law, Ned
Nwoko has demonstrated an avowed commitment to Nollywood and the entertainment
industry through various forms of support and assistance.
It is therefore in
view of this, Emeka Rollas said, that the association requests for Ned Nwoko’s financial
assistance to enable her members, including his wife, Regina Daniels to visit
Hollywood to tidy up the twining arrangements with SAG AFTRA and help
contribute to our AGN Trust Fund, which is designed to take care of our ailing
actors who are presently incapacitated and out of jobs.
The Delta North Senatorial hopeful, Ned Nwoko pledged to support the AGN Trust Fund with the sum of 10 Million Naira.
