June 29, (THEWILL) – The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), has indefinitely suspended actor, Jerry Williams, over his involvement in illicit substances.
Emeka Rollas, the National President of AGN, made this known in a statement.
He revealed that Williams’ activities had been under close watch since December until it got out of hand and the guild had to take a drastic step, as it cannot allow its members to be endangered by the actor.
“The Guild has been monitoring his involvement in illicit substances since December last year until it got out of hand. As it is now, he cannot be allowed to associate with other performers on set due to danger.
“He ought to have been suspended before now. But we decided to allow him to go through minor treatments, which he has been defaulting over time, but as it stands now, Jerry is a risk, not only to himself but also to other actors who might be acting alongside him on set.
“We, therefore, have decided to suspend him indefinitely until he gets a clean bill of health from a medical practitioner or a professional that handles drug abuse”, the statement read.
