In conclusion we could recall also that it wasn’t quite long that the industry lost a veteran actor, in the person of Ernest Asuzu, whose death sparked a wide criticism against the AGN and those against members of AGN, who were accused of not caring enough for their sick members, but only to flood their burial ceremonies upon their death.
Just yesterday another veteran actor Sadiq Baba just passed on after battling with a long time illness. I think the AGN has to be really up to speed with the welfare and affairs of some of this sick and weak actors and actress before it gets out of hand.
We pray they all get healed in Jesus Name.
