The last is yet to be heard of the hullabaloo engulfing the Actor Guild of Nigeria as report coming from a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos State today reversed the election of Ibinabo Fiberisnma Egbuka as President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria.
The presiding judge, Justice James Tsoho while delivering his judgement in a suit filed by actor Maradonna Mikevine, ruled that the October 2014 election that brought Ibinabo back for second term was against an existing court order obtained by actor Emeka Ike in 2013, restraining the AGN from conducting any elections.
You recall that Emeka had dragged Ibinabo to court in July 2013 following the constitution of a National Unity government in the AGN which was led by Segun Arinze who later handed over power to Ibinabo after a disputed election.
