Nollywood actor Jerry Williams, who was suspended from acting recently by the leadership of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, has gone into a rehabilitation center for drug addiction.

Weeks back, jerry was suspended from acting by the actors’ body after his involvement in illicit substances.

The National President of AGN, Mr Emeka Rollas had said that the guild started monitoring the actor from December last year until his condition got out of hand.

Rollas also said that the guild took the decision to suspend Jerry Williams after observing that he “is a risk not only to himself but also, other actors who might be acting alongside him on set.”

Meanwhile there have been a confirmation that the actor is doing well in the rehab.

According to the source, Jerry is undergoing intensive therapy at an undisclosed rehabilitation centre. This is to help the actor to concentrate on his health and recovery.

The source recalled how the actor’s colleagues had advised him to desist from drug abuse, but to no avail.

However, popular actor and film director, Ugezu J. Ugezu believes that Jerry Williams will overcome his travail in no distant time.

Sharing some photos which he posed alongside the embattled actor, Ugwzu wrote, “It will end in praise.”

“My son @official jerrywilliaims. This is just a phase that we must overcome.
“There is nothing we have not seen before. By Chi Ukwu Okike Abiama, Olisabuluwa Chukwu Umuaro, your best is yet to come,” Ugeze wrote on IG.
