Clarion Chukwura throws another punch at Ibinabo Fiberesima
Veteran actress Clarion Chukwura has announced
her intent of contesting for the Actor’s Guild presidency position
currently held by Ibinabo Fiberesima and laying the path to achieving
her aim with subtle punches aimed at Ibinabo’s lack of leadership
including her recent interview with Ecomium Magazine:
“Thank you very much. It gives me a
great concern that we continue to face this kind of issue in this
country. Rather than determine the merit of the issues that are being
raised, people will misdirect the whole point to be a personality attack. I do not have anything whatsoever against Ibinabo Fiberesima. Ibinabo as a person is a friend
of mine. I have known her since the 80s when she was running a night
club. So, Ibinabo Fiberesima, as a person, is not the issue. The issue
is that she succeeded in a very commendable field which is accessing an
appointment to see the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria at a
time like this when the President is engaged in all fronts. It was a
mighty opportunity that was given to her on a platter of gold.
My grouse is what did she do with it? It’s about the Actors Guild
of Nigeria. Ibinabo Fiberesima led a delegation to see the President as
AGN president. This is the constitution as amended for her (shows
reporter a copy), which part of this constitution did she use that visit
to actualize? She asked for political appointment which is an attempt
to destroy the guild. AGN is not a group established for lobbying for
political offices. This is an association of creative people not
politicians.”
