EKO HOT BLOG reports that Emeka Rollas, the president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, has provided an update on the purported kidnapping of two of his members, Clemson Cornell and Cynthia Okereke.
Emeka stated that the seasoned actors are currently merely missing and there has been no confirmation that they have been abducted.
Recall that in a statement signed by the Director of Communications of the AGN, Monalisa Chinda-Coker, it was stated that the two actors were suspected to have been kidnapped.
However in an interview granted by Rollas, he said “We have not confirmed the kidnap as it were. The only thing we know is that all the money in Cynthia Okereke’s account was cleared this morning.
“we are expecting to get a kind of signal from the people holding them hostage to Imo whether hit is kidnapping or not”
The statement initially issued by Chinda-Coker read:
“The two members were suspected of having been kidnapped, which has increased fear amongst members about the safety of the actors filming in the country.
“Because of this sad development, The National President of the Guild, Ejezie Emeka Rollas, has instructed all actors to avoid going to the outskirts of cities to film except full security is provided to ensure their safety”
According to Monalisa Chinda, veteran actors Cynthia Okereke and Clemson aka Agbogidi were reportedly missing after their family members confirmed they didn’t come back from a film location at Ozalla Town, Enugu State.
