"I don't know why he put on Biafra regalia" - Actors Guild president, Emeka Rollas reacts to arrest of Chiwetalu Agu

The President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Emeka Rollas, has reacted to the arrest of veteran Nollywood actor, Chiwetalu Agu by the Nigerian Army on Thursday, October 7.

Chiwetalu Agu was arrested by the Nigerian Army at Upper Iweka, Onitsha, Anambra state for putting on Biafra regalia, though the Nigerian army alleged that he was soliciting support for the proscribed IPOB.

He was reportedly taken to 82 Division Enugu with the Army saying his regalia was an act of incitement towards a proscribed group.

Emeka Rollas, president of Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), has now reacted to his arrest, knocking the actor for wearing the Biafra insignia especially given the security situation in the South East.

He said that the Guild is doing everything possible to ensure Chiwetalu Agu is released.

“I don’t know why he put on Biafra regalia. The state is hot." Rochas told Vanguard.

We are in talk with the military officials to ensure he his released. I heard they have taken him to 82 Division of the Nigeria Military base. We will do our best."

The truth is that Chiwetalu Agu was just acting a script to arouse sympathy among the Ipob faithfuls & ultimately climb the ladder of hierarchy.

He has achieved his script, and what he saw or will see in the hands of the military will be nothing compare to his ultimate goal of 'Cashing out'.

embarassed embarassed Sheikh Gumi is walking free as chief negotiator of Nigerian bandits but putting on clothes is offensive. The jihadist govt can continue to deceive zombies with their partisan rule of law and think the rest of the country isn't watching what is happening.

Our gallant officers would treat him so as to get more empathy from Ipob

Yes, but Gumi has become the voice of the terrorists so called bandits defending them and advocating for their rights, not minding the thousands of souls that they destroy and sorrows that they cause.

He put on Biafra "regalia" because he's a Biafran born of the Biafran region of Nigeria and of the defunct Biafra Republic of 1967 to 1969.

Every Igbo man is a Biafran by birth. Both as region and as part of the old Republic which our parents are from. Just as every Yoruba is Oduduwa is Yoruba and all Hausa are Arewa.

He didn't break any law. It's because we have many cowards like you is why Mettiyi Allah Boko Haram terrorist group can print official car plate number and move with our mopol policemen who are paid from our tax as personal bodyguards while freeborns can't even mention let alone identify with their origin so as not to offend Buhari and his malnourished brothers from Mali.

Hmmmm.

Tbh, I don't know why he went overt with it too. Something like Abaribe's 'dot', or a generic image of a half-yellow sun would have sufficed.


Wearing the full Biafran regalia in such troubled times was really a gaffe by the senior man, except if of course this reaction from the army is what he was looking to achieve, as we have turned into a species whose sole raison d'etre is clout-chasing.

I understand the perspective of the AGN, that the state is hot and we shouldn't unnecessarily heat up the policy however in the eyes of the law, Was BIAFRA proscribed?

Most of the Proscribed IPOB insignia were mostly extracts of the Biafran Insignia.

So except the federal government wants to proscribed Biafra indirectly, they are wrong for picking him up.

Perhaps we'll start printing the shirt of Hero lager beer that has same logo.

That way, we still subtly take a stand for Biafra.
Arewa, Oduduwa and Biafra are ideologies that have transcended over ages.
If you kill one today, many more will rise tomorrow!

He put it on because he’s an adult, can do whatever he wants and is ready for the repercussion. He wasn’t taken over by evil spirits and has a mouth to tell his story.

Nollywood Actor, Chiwetalu Agu Arrested For Asking Southeasterners To Join IPOB – Nigerian Army | Sahara Reporters

Mee:

Yesterday I saw videos of the Nigerian army dragging Nollywood Actor, Chiwetalu Agu, just for wearing a clothe with Biafran flag. It was barbaric, inhuman and humiliating.

Biafra is an idea, not an organization. There are pro-Biafra Igbos that are not members of the sessesionist group IPOB.

And yesterday was the anniversary of the #AsabaMassacre where the Nigerian army slaughtered more than 700 Igbo civilians in 2 days. Wearing an attire with the flag of Biafra is another method of commemoration.

It is mentally distressing that the cowardly Nigerian army that cuddle BokoHaram terrorists and murderous armed bandits are dehumanizing a prominent citizen. Very shameful!

Release the Actor Chiwetalu Agu NOW!

I'm Igbo to the core but trust me
Igbos are the worst set of people you can give you can place on a high place.
once an igbo person sees a little money or position (that fetches money) he can betray everything about him to maintain such.
just look how this bastard is yarning dust just because of a pauper position he's holding.
Igbos are the worst set of people you can put on a high position and expect them to be good to their fellow Igbos
he's willing to wipe away his kinsmen because of such position or benefits.
very pathetic
this is one of the qualities I like about the North.
it's their people first before any gaddem thing or position.

Uzodinma gladly wiped away his hometown just to prove his loyalty to buhari
Umahi denied his tribe for his useless ambition
Igbokwe denied his tribe because of gutter aide
and many others just because of stipends

Nigerian journalists can twist headlines eeh.
Tufia.

Why not use this caption;
"AGN president appeals for the release of Chinwetale Agu" or
"AGN president in talks with NA to release Chinwetale Agu"

because this is what d article is all about, but u choose to use d caption based on d question u asked him. Do you know why Chinwetalu Agu wore a Biafra regalia?
Just to make him feel dejected and make d zoo happy.

If hell exists, Nigerian Journalists will be at d hottest part of it.
