Actors Guild of Nigeria president,
Ibinabo Fiberesima has slammed those
who say the guild abandoned late
actor,Muna Obiekwe ..Speaking during
his candlelight service in Lagos she said
“Think first before you write. The
man was married, he had a wife
and children. When you go about
writing rubbish about the dead, it
will haunt you. If you don’t know
the truth about something, don’t
spread it. It’s even worse if you are
an AGN member. Everyone is sad
because of his death. If I had
known, being the kind of person I
am, I would die to save Muna. I
didn’t know, most of us never knew
and Muna begged the few people
who knew not to tell anyone. He
had his reasons and let us respect
it. Let’s stop writing rubbish . He
drank alcohol, does that make you
better than him? Let us respect
Muna, he’s no longer with us. Mind
your business..(Continue)
“All those throwing daggers at AGN,
dumping Muna and not taking care
of him. How many of you are
registered and validated AGN
members. But when something goes
wrong, you’ll remember AGN. This
AGN is a guild, not a hospital. We
are worried about your welfare, but
if you’re not registered with us, we
cannot help you. We have helped
people we don’t even know because
they came to us. If you need help,
let us know”
“There’s also a publication going
round about another ailing actor,
Prince James Uche. My heart is
broken because we have gone the
length to help him, so I’m shocked
to hear that we have abandoned yet
another actor. We don’t abandon
actors. We have paid his rent for
three years now, we have paid his
hospital bills and put him on a
health plan. We have taken him to
the best hospitals for medical tests.
I’m really shocked at the stories
fllying around. If you don’t know
the truth about something, you ask.
I know the kind of heart God has
given me and I have God’s grace
upon me. So no matter what you do
to destroy me, I can’t be destroyed.
I love Muna and if I could help
him, I would if I had known about
his ailment. But God knows why
this has happened”
