The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has taken the decision to indefinitely suspend actor Jerry Williams following allegations of drug abuse.

The AGN’s National President, Emeka Rollas, MON, released a statement stating that the organization had been closely monitoring Jerry’s alleged involvement in illicit substances since December of last year, and the situation has escalated to a point where action had to be taken.

Rollas emphasized that the primary concern is the safety of fellow actors and, therefore, Jerry cannot be allowed to associate with them on set. The decision to suspend him is aimed at preventing any potential harm to the lives of other performers.

The statement reads in part:

“The Guild has been monitoring his involvement in illicit substances since December last year until it got out of hand and as it is now, he cannot be allowed to associate with other performers on set due to danger.

He ought to have been suspended before now. But we decided to allow him to go through minor treatments, which he has been defaulting overtimes. But as it stands now, Jerry is a risk not only to himself but also, to other actors who might be acting alongside him on set.

We, therefore, have decided to suspend him indefinitely until he gets a clean bill of health from a medical practitioner or a professional that handles drugs abuse.’”

Jerry hit the limelight after starring in the epic movie, “The Chosen King.”
