These are certainly not the best of times for the newly elected President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Abubakar Yakubu, as he has reportedly been arrested by the police.
Yakubu was said to have been involved in a fatal car accident in Surulere, Lagos, which allegedly resulted in the death of a pedestrian.
As of now, there is no official statement regarding his arrest or the circumstances surrounding the crash.
For those who don’t know, Yakubu recently secured the AGN presidency in a closely contested election, defeating veteran actress, Rita Daniels with 116 votes to 113, while three votes were declared invalid.
