The Akwa Ibom State Police Command has arrested popular Nollywood actor, Moses Armstrong, for allegedly violating a 16-year-old girl.
The national president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Emeka Rollas, who confirmed Armstrong’s arrest, described the case as “a very serious one”.
In a chat with Qed.ng, he said the case is being handled by the First Lady of the state, Martha Udom Emmanuel, through her Family Empowerment and Youth Re-Orientation Path Initiative.
He added that the organization would not condone such a crime.
“To get involved with a child as young as 16 years, is not something I and the association I represent stand for. This is a very sad development involving a member of ours, but I would not want to comment any further on this case.” The AGN president said.
