Emeka Ike AGN President After 8 Month Court Battle With Detained Ibinabo

Femi Durojaiye the National Secretary of the AGN, has announced that actor Emeka Ike will now be the new President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, following a court ruling that stripped actress, Ibinabo Fiberesima of her position, he claimed.


This followed after eight months of contest over the rightful leader.
She was removed from the position after a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos ruled on March 23, 2016, that Ike will now take the rein of power after a long legal battle, Durojaiye said. 

His statement to the press also reads;
"The Federal High Court sitting in Lagos this morning 23/3/2016 at the application and argument of Counsel to Actors Guild of Nigeria Barr. Peter Andor Oboyi, struck out Ibinabo’s and BOT suit challenging the nullification of her election to the Presidency of AGN and also challenging the legitimacy of the Presidency of Emeka Ike and his Exco. The implication of this judgement is that Engr. Emeka Ike led Exco remain the only authentic and lawful leaders of Actors Guild of Nigeria."
