The Actors’ Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has announced the indefinite suspension of actress Halima Abubakar after a thorough investigation.

AGN, in a statement on Friday, said their probe revealed that Halima is allegedly behind slanderous news about actors posted online.

The Guild also claimed that the movie star is mainly responsible for “news of extramarital affairs linked with highly placed individuals in society and Nollywood stars”.

The Guild said that she would face a disciplinary panel to determine her full punishment, adding she is not permitted to film or participate in any movies during the suspension period.

The statement reads, “Following the thorough investigative report by the special Secret Investigation Panel set up to conduct an internal underground secret investigation into the activities of some blogs/bloggers since 2022. After two years of painstaking investigations, the Panel found out that Miss Halima Abubakar was behind all the slandering information of our members, associates and patrons, especially news of extramarital affairs linked with highly placed individuals in the society emanating from the industry.

“Therefore, Halima Abubakar is hereby placed on indefinite suspension from the Actors Guild of Nigeria. She will face the National Disciplinary committee to determine her full punishment. During this period of her suspension, she is not permitted to participate in any Agn and or filming activities.

“The National/State Chapter Taskforces have been duly mandated to monitor the compliance of the above order as violations of the suspension rules may lead to further disciplinary actions. On behalf of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, I commend the professional and intelligent work done by members of the secret investigative panel. However, some female members on the watch-list are being investigated by the secret panel, especially in the recent release of names purported to have had dealings with the Senate President.”
