The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has at last spoken out in response to the actress Empress Njamah’s release of nude videos.
The association demanded the detention of Empress Njamah’s ex-fiance, who had posted her nude videos online.
Emeka Rollas, the association’s national president, strongly condemned the broadcast of the videos, according to a statement released by Kate Henshaw, the association’s spokesman, on January 12th.
AGN statement released reads; “This act of blackmail calculated to smear the image and publicly ridicule her by a man who claimed to be her lover is not only criminal but also evil and unacceptable.
“It is worthy to note that exposing nude videos and photographs of a person that injure her right to privacy is a serious offence”.
The association, in their statement further stated that they stand with Empress and shall provide full support in areas of counselling to help her recover from psychological and emotional trauma.
“We have been in forefront of campaign of violence against women and we view the action of this so-called evil lover man as an act targeted at eroding her dignity and self-respect.
“We call on the law enforcement agents to apprehend the culprit and ensure he faces the full wrath of the law for violating the right and dignity of Empress Njamah.
“We urge her fans to give her their full support at this time. She will come through this stronger and better,”
The actress’s recent weeks have been terrible as her former fiancé Josh Wade slandered her name.
Josh had her passport and other valuables in his possession as well as threatened to reveal her nude videos.
He had, true to his word, posted the actress’s nude videos on a WhatsApp group he had set up.
