Halima Abubakar Sues AGN President for N30bn in Legal Battle

by Arabella Zikora

Suspended Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, has filed a lawsuit against Emeka Rollas, the president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN.

The actress also demanded N30bn from Rollas following the announcement of her suspension on his social media handle.

Abubakar was suspended over her alleged involvement in slandering Nollywood.

Reacting to the accusations, the actress expressed that she had never been contacted or given an opportunity to respond to the claims before the announcement

Abubakar in a letter dated October 20, 2024, by her legal representatives, P.D. Pius & Associates, accused the AGN President of deliberately tarnishing her reputation.

“Our client has been battling health issues for years, and despite maintaining a professional relationship, you chose this delicate moment during her recovery to spread a false narrative. This has caused her emotional distress and harmed her reputation in society.”

The solicitors further demanded immediate removal of the defamatory publication on Rollas’ Instagram page with unreserved public and N30 billion in damages for reputational harm.

The letter concluded with a warning; “Unless these demands are met in 7 days, we are instructed by our client to pursue appropriate legal action.”
