Nollywood Actor, Jerry Williams has been indefinitely suspended from acting by Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, over alleged involvement with illicit substances.
This was made known in a statement issued by the National President of AGN, Emeka Rollas, on Thursday.
According to Rollas, the association has been closely monitoring Jerry Williams’s involvement with illicit substances since December, till it got out of hand.
The statement reads, “The Guild has been monitoring his involvement in illicit substances since December last year until it reached a point where it got out of hand. Considering the current circumstances, he cannot be allowed to associate with other performers on set due to the danger it poses.
“He should have been suspended earlier, but we decided to give him a chance to undergo minor treatments, which he has repeatedly failed to comply with. However, at this point, Jerry is not only a risk to himself but also to other actors who might act alongside him on set.
“Therefore, we have made the decision to suspend him indefinitely until he receives a clean bill of health from a medical practitioner or a professional specializing in drug abuse.”
Some of the movies he has acted include; sound of desperation, Cash and carry, Virgins in Love and many other.
