The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has invited well-known pastor Jerry Eze to lead a four-day fast and prayer in response to the tragic tragedies that continue to occur in Nollywood.

From May 2 to May 5, the association will go on a four-day retreat during which they will fast and pray in an effort to stop such occurrences from happening in the future.

The effort was publicised on Instagram by the guild’s national president, Emeka Rollas, who highlighted Pastor Jerry Eze as the project head.

Pastor Jerry Eze is the founder of Streams of Joy International Church.

Rollas stressed the need of prayers to stop tragedies in Nollywood, particularly in view of the recent deaths of Mr. Ibu and Junior Pope. While Mr. Ibu valiantly battled a disease, Junior Pope perished in a boat accident.

The AGN president wrote:

“In view of the recent passing of our two veteran members and the devastating tragic boat mishap that claimed the lives of five active practitioners including John Paul Odonwodo, aka, Jnr Pope in Asaba, we have decided to seek divine intervention in fasting and prayers to avert similar occurrence in the future.

“Join us on the Altar of Fire from 2nd May to 5th May 2024 for prayers and declarations to deal with this ugly reproach.

“Actors cannot continue to die like chickens let us reclaim our spiritual airways and highways that seem to have been hijacked by certain powers. Other members of Nollywood are free to join this program. I appeal to all NSPDians all over the world and all lovers of actors of Nollywood to join us in this program.”
