Nigeria’s Actors Guild reacts to Moses Armstrong’s Alleged Rape case

Nigerian actor and member of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Moses Armstrong has been arrested for allegedly raping a minor.

Armstrong, actor, and singer, was arrested by men of the Akwa Ibom State Police Command for allegedly defiling a 16-year-old girl.

Reacting to the arrest, the national president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) Emeka Rollas described Armstrong’s case as a very serious and sad development.

“This is a very sad development involving a member of ours, but I wouldn’t want to comment any further on this case,” he said.
“To get involved with a child as young as 16 yrs is not something I and the association I represent, would stand for,” he added.

Rollas stated the arrest and case against Armstrong is being handled by the Akwa Ibom First Lady, Martha Udom Emmanuel through her Family Empowerment and Youth Re-Orientation Path Initiative.

Armstrong was also a Special Assistant to the Akwa Ibom Governor, Udom Emmanuel.
