In other news, AGN has lifted the suspension of Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, bringing an end to a disciplinary action that lasted over a year.
The AGN had placed an indefinite suspension on Abubakar in October 2024 over allegations of defamation against fellow actors and prominent Nigerians. Following a two-year investigation, a disciplinary panel found her culpable and barred her from participating in any guild-related activities and film productions.
However, the guild announced on Thursday that the suspension had been lifted.
