The President of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria, Ibinabo Fiberesima, has said that she never went to Aso Rock to seek for a political appointment from President Goodluck Jonathan.


Reacting to frequent attacks she has been receiving from her colleague, Clarion Chukwura, over the past few weeks via an open letter circulated on the internet and media houses, Ibinabo took her time to address some of the issues raised by Clarion who herself is interested in running for the same office. “I didn’t ask Mr. President for ‘a political appointment’ as you have been mouthing. I thanked Mr. President for the few consideration he has made in appointing some practitioners into key Government positions and requested for more of such appointments in line with our expressed desire to have more of our creative people in government and in politics so we can be able to have people that will influence legislation that will be for the betterment of the industry,” Ibinabo said. In the previous weeks, Clarion had accused the AGN President for, among other things, not asking President Goodluck Jonathan for support on the issue of legislation that could bring all the screen actors in Nigeria under one single body during her visit; seeking political appointment and a National secretariat in Abuja and for excluding veterans in the delegation that went to on the State visit.

Nollywood Actress CHIKA IKE Give Reasons Why She Quit From Her Marriage.

The most fabulous and talented Nollywood actress, Chika Ike has come out to share her experience as a victim of domestic violence.

Her words: The past three years has been a very emotional period for me, i focused my energy on work and to build back my self esteem. its been really hard forme to come out straight and talk about this because sometimes I pinch myself to wake up and not believe that I was a victim of domestic violence. I've been through a lot in my life ,faced a lot of challenges but this is one topicI've tried so hard to avoid and have been waiting for the right time but I have come to aresolve that there's really no right time because every second of the day,lives are being lost due to domestic violence. I was a victiim of domestic violence in my marriage and that was the singular reason i left my marriage ,aside other reasons.

Growing up as a girl. I was always known as the sweetest kid on the block, before I got married, I have been through some relationships and for once no man had ever laid a finger on me. The first time it happened in my marriage I didn't understand it because I am not the type of woman a man beats but I guess there are no types. It just happens and no woman deserves it. As a young girl I thought it was love or his way of expressing his emotions,after every beating he pleads , cries and says it won't happen again, once again I thought it was love and made excuses for him.

Over the years when it kept happening consistently I started looking for other definitions for it. I started loosing my self pride,self esteem , self worth, and most painfully i lost a pregnancy (Miscarriage) I almost lost my life in the process then I realised how serious and abnormal it really was..

I have heard and read a lot of accusations from ignorant people who don't know my story,I guess that's why they are ignorant. I was 20yrs old and very naïve to the world when I got married .“ They said I married for money“ LOL.

I was married to a corporate guy,who had a 9_5 job in a bank, Lives in a rented 2 bedroom apartment at Egbe.. So do the maths! . I married forlove. I did a traditional wedding. A white wedding and a court wedding. So that's how much I wanted to be married forever. For five years I hoped, prayed & wished that one day it will all change. But the last straw that broke the carmels back was during a heated argument he threw a glass jug to my face and I dogged it and it shattered on d wall. I saw death flash before me and I made a decision to save my life. I left my marriage.

Am not saying this to draw pity from anyone because we are entitled to our opinions and believes.i am not also saying this to discourage people from falling in love because its a beautiful feeling and I still believe in it. I am saying this to educate ,share and talk about my experience as a victim of domestic violence because it is real.
