'Ibinabo should resign as AGN president because of political appointment'- Clarion Chukwurah

Actress Clarion Chukwurah has called on the current President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria(AGN) Ibinabo Fiberisima, to resign from office as she has been appointed into a political office by President Jonathan. Ibinabo apointed by President Jonathan on the board of the National Council for Arts and Culture (NCAC) on February 26th.

In a two-page statement she released titled, Ibinabo and the AGN visit to President GEJ: Setting The Record Straight, Clarion Chukwurah said since Ibinabo has received the Federal Government's appointment, it is expected of her to vacate office as AGN President and face her new appointment, as Onyeka Onwenu and Kanayo O Kanayo her predecessors did. Continue...

"The AGN was not established as a platform to canvass for political appointments or pursue selfish interests. Ms Onyeka Onwenu and Mr Kanayo O. Kanayo listed as examples in her address, became card carrying members of PDP and pursued the realization of PDP’s political goals to obtain their appointments. Ms Ibinabo Fiberisima should resign as AGN president for her brazen use of a body created to serve the creative interests of a group, to gain political appointment while in office. I enjoin her to follow the respectable road of her named predecessors, by joining the PDP and testing the real value of her self-earned popularity as an actress for political appointment,” she said.
She also expressed her displeasure at Ibinabo taking some actors to the Presidential Villa, an act she saw as going to literally begging for crumbs

"While it is not surprising that Ibinabo Fiberisima will display such a lack of knowledge of what advances screen actors professionally in the developed world, since she has not functioned consistently as an actor, and has less than 10 titles to her credit in a career spanning from the late 80s, it is however surprising that the established actors within her entourage watched in compliance, the denigration of the integrity of Nigerian screen actors, as she read her requests literally begging for crumbs from the president’s table,” said Chukwurah

  33. First of all Clarion Chukwurah has beautiful skin... secondly weren't you people the ones who voted her as president of the AGN? I was shocked myself when i saw her as the president. first she is a terrible actor ( for people who would talk, actor can be used for both sexes) secondly she doesn't have a lot of work in her portfolio. Be that as it may, maybe she was appointed because she is one of the "less busy" ones.

    Its not difficult occupying 2 positions if they have similar interests, you can use one to uphold the other and vice versa. But i think i agree with madam clarion that she should just step down, she hasn't done anything significant for the AGN but pursue selfish interests now that it's been achieved ngwanu commot make another person occupy.

  35. Ms Clarion Chukwurah would've done exactly the-same thing Ibinabo Fiberisima did if she was the President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria(AGN). 90% of this Nollywood Ladies have this Greedy Hustler DNA. Her Statement is more or less borne out of Jelousy and doesn't suggest she is trying to protect AGN. #GoodMessage; #BadMessanger!

  39. If the job will take her away from functioning effectively as the AGN president then she should honorably resign but this call to resign is to fan egos of a selected few and meant to to divide the body then it should be outrightly ignored!

    1. Why can't people be happy for others who are progressing? Without being told, a blind man can even see the jealousy in this letter? She was most likely excluded from the presdential visit and also bitter that in all her years of acting, she wsn't given a post by the present administartion. My advice to clarion and those like her- Learn to be happy for others when good things come their way so that can God can bless and also favor you.

  45. Now this is what is wrong with Nigerian youths and the masses, someone hot the nail on the head and spoke the truth and people are calling the jealousy. Others are saying they would have done the same if they were in her shoes. Corruption and greediness is not only rampant amongst the politicians but amongst the people/masses. Well I can only blame the POVERTY MENTALITY.

  49. The comments here show that a lot of Nigerian youths are lost causes just like the older generation if not even worse. It was sighted in the statement that Kanayo and Onyeka vacated their positions as AGN boss when they got political appointments, in developed countries this will be the case as well but some shallow, uneducated (Education is not about going to university) and myopic people are talking about bad belle and jealousy. Do these people expect her to keep her AGN (Guild)job and Govt appointment's? Do you know what a guild is and the parameter's surounding a guild? Check your dictionary. This is not about Clarion the fact is the fact, Ibinabo should vacate the guild leadership simple. Fela did not lie when he said "Suffer don spoil black man sense". Hunger is a bitch...

  55. Its about time, I have been asking how this lady came to be president of AGN..., haven't seen her in any movie, in fact I don't know her . I only read about her on blogs and newspaper pages most especially during nollywood awards. But she's gotten a political post, she should resign, period.

    ReplyDelete
  56. First of all I understand Ms Clarion's point; however, I don't think Ibinabo holding two positions that can be complementary is as issue. If Clarion is calling for Ibinabo's resignation on the basis of her incompetence then that's a matter for consideration, but if its for holding two positions that in themselves do NOT require "full time" attention it is pointless. Being on a board is not that demanding, how many times to board members sit??? Besides the issue of Ibinabo's film credit did not rise during her nomination and confirmation as AGN presido, so it shouldn't come up now period.

    All the same I like Ms Clarion

  57. Aunty clarion u should be a mother to ibinabo instead of moving motion to bring her down. U guyz hv no issues. I expect an elderly person like u to be in position of calling ibinabo nd correcting her mistskes(if she hs any) instead of crying to d social media. Or r u hungry for relvance?no AGN president hs achieved wht ibinabo hs achieved in a short period of time she came in as d president of AGN. U hv been in dis industry like forever,wht hv u done for dis guild?she respects u so much so y can't u talk to her?y d pull her down sydrom?hw pained r u by her present position?hw many times do d board sit dat u think she won't be able to do her job?she's d only president who is working so hard to unite dis family.

Ibinabo has build d guild wit a long lasting legacy dat time can never change.clarion u wnt to be noticed nd its politically accepted. In dis case am pleading wit my president Queen ibinano to pls gv clarion a political appointment as a messager in AGN national secretariate to balance d equation. Thrfor clarion bewere nd be warned dat ibinabo is one of d pillar of d nation nd need no distractions bt prayers nd God's protection to achieve all vital goals dat will benefit d youth,d guild nd d nation at large.

Jealous of a performer. what have u contributed to the development of AGN. Always brewing crisis with ur dead brains. What Ibinabo has done in AGN in one year, u can do it in 20yrs. Popularity is not in the number of films acted but how has the film impacted on the society. U dont have to act in 1 million movies to become AGN president fool. Since u have been acting how many awards have u received, jealous woman. Go and die and leave Ibinabo alone.

  73. Clarion Chukurah is an embarrassment to Nollywood. I never knew she is just a big fool. How can u comme to social media and disgrace urself over a woman who is performing to change peoples's lives. Ibinabo has change the face of AGN and improved on the welfare of members. She is building capacity in the Guild and putting lasting structures then this rabble rouser called clarion wahala is asking to resign over a mere Board appointment. Continue to wallop in jealousy cos she will soon become a minister. U are too big for this disgrace clarion. Do even know where AGN Secretariat is? Have u paid your dues since 2001? aaaah clarion never knew u were such a bitchy fool. Go get a life. Leave Ibinabo our President alone.

  79. Let me start by saying its a shame that the President appointed a known lesbian yet,the bans gay acts in Nigeria. Ibinabo is LESBIAN right from her secondary school. or will i say bi sexual? cos she also did guys den too sef. I can understand her Leading the guild, as most of them are morally bankrupt, but not the presidency... this jus means that anything goes. Whoever challenges dis gist will make me call names of her Lesbian partners when she was in FGGC New Bussa.
