An embittered Nollywood star, Mr Ibu, has cursed those he perceived to have diverted funds meant for the Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN from the Federal Government.
In a recent interview with Vanguard Newspaper, Mr Ibu said that he had once sent a proposal to build a film village to the Federal Government and is yet to get response, hence, he believes some of his colleagues have gotten money and diverted the funds.
Born John Okafor, the comic actor disclosed that while the former President, Goodluck Jonathan was in office, the Actors Guild benefited immensely from his dispensation, yet some individuals had diverted the money allocated to the industry to their personal pocket.
In his words, "When ex-President Goodluck Jonathan was in office, every minute they were there asking for all manner of favour."
Continuing, he said, 'And the ex-President loved us so much that he gave them huge money. All those who diverted monies meant for AGN or Movie Makers will die because they do not know the souls they have killed.
'For 2016, if all these things are taken care of, AGN will do better. I am promising one thing, am not contesting anything on the AGN but, I have a lot of surprises,' he promised.
