Soldiers manhandle, arrest actor Chinwetalu Agu over Biafra outfit

Popular Nollywood Actor, Chinwetalu Agu, has reportedly been arrested by Nigerian soldiers in Upper Iweka area of Onitsha, Anambra State for allegedly putting on an outfit with colours of the Biafran Flag.

It was gathered that, on Thursday afternoon, Agu’s vehicle was stopped by soldiers who wasted no time to bring him out of his bus.

In a footage seen The Star, a crowd started building up before warning shots were released in the air. Agu was dragged and manhandled by the soldiers.

Last month, Agu went viral on social media after wearing an outfit made of the Biafran Flag with many Nigerians stating on social media that ‘nothing must happen’ to the popular thespian.

The Biafran flag is the official emblem of South-East Separatist group, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), led by detained Nnamdi Kanu.
