In a press release made available to “Precious Eze’s Blog” and signed by the Director of Communications of the AGN, Kate Henshaw, the AGN says, though the association is apolitical, individual members have the right to participate and campaign for candidates running for various political offices across the country.

Mr. Emeka Rollas
Ejezie spoke through the release about the member of the Lagos State House of
Assembly, seeking reelection on the platform of the All Progressives Congress,
APC, for Surulere constituency 1, Hon. Desmond Eliot, urging
AGN members to vote massively for members irrespective of their interest in
political parties for the overall interest of Nollywood, stressing that if we
have our members in strategic positions in Government, they will help move
motions and pass enabling laws that would help our industry become more
profitable.

According to him, it has become imperative to vote
our members into power to further help the growth and development of Nollywood,
as the Actors Guild of Nigeria has members in all the states of the Federation,
including Abuja with satellite chapters in major cities and local government
areas in Nigeria.
