Actors Guild of Nigeria president, Ibinabo Fiberesima has slammed
those who say the guild abandoned late actor,Muna Obiekwe ..Speaking
during his candlelight service in Lagos she said
"Think first before you write. The man was married, he had a wife and
children. When you go about writing rubbish about the dead, it will
haunt you. If you don't know the truth about something, don't spread
it. It's even worse if you are an AGN member. Everyone is sad because
of his death. If I had known, being the kind of person I am, I would
die to save Muna. I didn't know, most of us never knew and Muna begged
the few people who knew not to tell anyone. He had his reasons and let
us respect it. Let's stop writing rubbish . He drank alcohol, does
that make you better than him? Let us respect Muna, he's no longer
with us. Mind your business..(Continue)
"All those throwing daggers at AGN, dumping Muna and not taking care
of him. How many of you are registered and validated AGN members. But
when something goes wrong, you'll remember AGN. This AGN is a guild,
not a hospital. We are worried about your welfare, but if you're not
registered with us, we cannot help you. We have helped people we don't
even know because they came to us. If you need help, let us know"
"There's also a publication going round about another ailing actor,
Prince James Uche. My heart is broken because we have gone the length
to help him, so I'm shocked to hear that we have abandoned yet another
actor. We don't abandon actors. We have paid his rent for three years
now, we have paid his hospital bills and put him on a health plan. We
have taken him to the best hospitals for medical tests. I'm really
shocked at the stories fllying around. If you don't know the truth
about something, you ask. I know the kind of heart God has given me
and I have God's grace upon me. So no matter what you do to destroy
me, I can't be destroyed. I love Muna and if I could help him, I would
if I had known about his ailment. But God knows why this has happened"
