At 11.00a.m on Tuesday, 10 March, 20.., the beautiful and busty actress Foluke Daramola was seen along the Ajuwon/Akute road on a commercial motorbike popularly called Okada.
Her hair was looking rather rough and unkempt. She was wearing a pink top on jeans and used a scarf to cover her face so as not to be easily identified. An eye witness said she looked like someone who was undergoing emotional trauma.
Foluke, who is popular amongst Yoruba home video viewers not been regular on films.

Her last movie which she also produced was Awoya in which she played the part of a childless woman. Her husband, the Fuji sensation, Pasuma, a devout Muslim believes his wife should seek God’s intervention through prayers. At the end of the story; it was her step mother who Foluke had been nice to that was responsible for her childlessness.

Embattled ex president of Actors Guild of Nigeria, Ejike Asiegbu, faces a stretch in jail if producers and marketers of Nigerian home videos make good their threat to prosecute him over alleged illegal collection of royalties from movie marketers in Zimbabwe.

Sources revealed that Ejike had allegedly received over N1 million from foreign marketers for last years rights’ to sell and Nigeria markets and had gone back to Zimbabwe to collect for next year before the shit hit the fan.
An e-mail sent to Emma Ogugwu, an actor and producer, by a movie marketer blew open Ejike Asiegbu’s racket. Emma told the National Weekender.

“Ejike has shot his bounds. He has also over extended his tenure. He has no authority to sell rights to anybody. What he did is illegal. It is fraudulent. The marketers have been meeting. He will be prosecuted.
Ejike has a lot on his plate presently. He has been dragged to court by executives of A.G.N for over extension of his tenure as president of the guild.
We were informed that Ejike is serving his third tenure without an election.

Our source reveled
“He is a sit light president. He has arrogated so much power to himself. He has sacked or suspended other elected officers like those who do not do his bidding.
Members of the A.G.N have variously described Ejike’s tendencies as dictatorial.

“Can you believe that he uses the A.G.N secretariat as his private office? There is no secretary. He calls no meetings. Once he is not in town the office is sealed. He is the only person who has access to the place”.
We were also informed and we have observed that the A.G.N Toyota Siena Van is used by Ejike Asiegbu as his personal car.

There are also allegations that Ejike Asiegbu disburses funds without recourse to any executive. An actor said
“We believe it has become one too many. The industry must be free of mediocres, self serving, and self minded people. It all boils down to leadership, when one man arrogates so much power to himself and puts the institution aside.
We could not reach Ejike Asiegbu at the time of writing this report but we spoke to

Mr. Mathias Obahiagbon who was a founding president of A.G.N.
“It is said you can imagine a situation where you vote somebody and the next thing he has become the boss. I am president, first among equals, does not mean you are better. We shut down this industry for eight months to allow us organise and put proper structures in place. Three months after we made peace, some people that were supposedly with us, sold us out.”
