AGN Suspends Nollywood Actor, Jerry Williams Indefinitely Over Drugs Abuse

The Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, has confirmed the indefinite suspension of actor Jerry Williams due to his association with illegal substances.
The National President of AGN, Emeka Rollas, MON, who announced the suspension in a statement, said the AGN has been closely monitoring Williams Jerry’s association with illicit substances since December of the last year.
Rollas said the situation has escalated to a point where it poses a risk to the safety of other performers on set, stressing that Williams will not be allowed to associate with fellow actors to prevent any potential harm.
The statement reads in part; “the Guild has been monitoring his involvement in illicit substances since December last year until it got out of hand and as it is now, he cannot be allowed to associate with other performers on set due to danger.
“He ought to have been suspended before now. But we decided to allow him to go through minor treatments, which he has been defaulting overtimes. But as it stands now, Jerry is a risk not only to himself but also, to other actors who might be acting alongside him on set.
“We , therefore, have decided to suspend him indefinitely until he gets a clean bill of health from a medical practitioner or a professional that handles drugs abuse.’”
Jerry hit the limelight after starring in the epic movie, “The Chosen King”. He’s known for playing the role of a ‘prince, king, warrior, palace guard, hunter, romantic guy, terrorist, and many other roles in his past movies.
