WEB TV:Emeka Ike Fired, As AGN Elects New President. .

                                                    For the past 12 years, the guild has been bedeviled with leadership crisis, resulting in the dismissal of its National President, Ibinabo Fiberesima last year by the court, following a suit filed against her re-election by St. Maradona Mikevine, a veteran Nollywood actor.

The actor who was the National Treasurer in the election that ushered in Emeka Ike, as AGN president was not happy with the happenings in Ibinabo’s period as figurehead.

Mikevine had argued in his suit that the election that introduced Ibinabo into the system was done pending a subsisting court order containing the conduct of an AGN election, with Amb. Emeka Ike filing the initial suit.

Emeka Ike had been battling for the leadership of the guild since 2005, after the tenure of Ejike Asiegbu as National President of the guild expired.

Agenda of the summit, according to an insider is how to chart a new direction for the association.

There was jubilation from the members of the AGN who participated in the election and those who acted as observers as a new president emerged out of the troubles rocking the guild for years.

The Director of Golden Valley Hotel and sponsor of the conference, Joel Ugwuoke admonished the new executives to avoid the conflicts in leadership and to live up to the expectation of the AGN, if the industry is to compete for a better and enhanced position in the global arena.

On his part, the new president of the GNU, an interim government under the umbrella of the AGN, Emeka Rollas said his two-year term as leader of the guild would be full of positive reforms, stressing that he would work with all aggrieved parties for a better AGN.
