Court nullifies Ibinabo’s election as AGN President

A Federal High Court has voided the election of the former beauty queen and actress, Ibinabo Fiberesima as the President of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria (AGN).

Justice James Tsoho said the election that ushered the 42-year old into office was conducted against a standing court order, in a suit filed by an actor identified as St. Maradona Mikevine.

Mikevine served as the National Treasurer in the factional exco led by Emeka Ike as AGN president and had filed the suit to contest Ibinabo’s election as AGN president.

Court filings indicate that Mikevine approached the court praying for the nullification of the election, saying the same was conducted in the face of a subsisting court order restraining the conduct of the AGN election.
