Outrage as Senator Abbo is made Patron of Actors Guild of Nigeria – Hilda Dokubo’s Response

Hilda Dokubo, a veteran actress, has expressed her dissatisfaction with the appointment of Adamawa-born Senator Elisha Abbo as a patron of the Actors Guild of Nigeria.

 

Referencing the incident where the lawmaker was captured on video assaulting a nursing mother in a sex toy shop, the veteran actress condemned the decision, stating that making an “abuser of women a Patron of Actors Guild of Nigeria is an unpardonable abuse”. 

 

Dokubo called for the immediate removal of Senator Elisha Abbo from the list of AGN patrons and emphasized the need to halt any actions that undermine societal values. 

 

She wrote; 

 

Cut the crap

An abuser of women as Patron of Actors Guild of Nigeria is an unpardonable abuse of the rights of all the females in the creative space especially #actors.

 We must stop every attempt at rubbishing our values as a people with such appointments in whatever guise. Consequently, Senator Abbo #sextoysenator must be delisted from our list of Patrons now.
