Kate Henshaw rejects Elisha Abbo

By Taiwo Okanlawon

Veteran actresses Hilda Dokubo and Kate Henshaw have kicked against the making of Adamawa-born senator, Elisha Abbo, a patron of the Actors Guild of Nigeria.

The Adamawa lawmaker who was spotted in a viral video last year, assaulting a nursing mother in a sex toy shop has reportedly been appointed as the Patron of the Actors Guild of Nigeria.

The veteran actress, Dokubo stated that making an “abuser of women a Patron of Actors Guild of Nigeria is an unpardonable abuse”.

Dokubo who called for delisting Senator Elisha Abbo from AGN’s list of patrons insisted that every attempt at rubbishing societal values with such an appointment must be stopped.

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.”

In a related development, Kate Henshaw called out the President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) Emeka Rollas over Senator Elisha Abbo’s appointment.

In her reaction, Henshaw took to her Twitter page and said the lawmaker was not worthy to be a patron of AGN, adding that there are women in the guild, and they don’t want to be slapped.

Kate Henshaw wrote, ”Emeka Rollas, I cannot find your handle on Twitter. My name is Kate Henshaw and I do not mince words when I say @AbboElisha is NOT worthy to be a patron of the Actors Guild of Nigeria.

”We have women in this guild, and we do not want to be slapped.”

Emeka Rollas, I cannot find your handle on Twitter, my name is Kate Henshaw and I do not mince words when I say @AbboElisha is NOT worthy to be a patron of the Actors Guild of Nigeria. We have women in this guild and we do not want to be slapped!!
