The leadership of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has announced the indefinite suspension of actor Jerry Williams following his alleged involvement in illicit substances.
National president of AGN Emeka Rollas stated in a press release that the guild has been monitoring Jerry’s alleged involvement in illicit substances since December 2022.
According to the statement, Jerry cannot be allowed to associate with other performers on set for fear of endangering their lives.
The guild noted that the situation is a matter of safety for fellow actors.
The statement reads, “The Guild has been monitoring his involvement in illicit substances since December last year until it got out of hand and 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 overtimes. 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.”
