The National President of the AGN Emeka Rollas who announced the freedom of the actors, said those who kidnapped Okereke and Clemson were touched by the spirit of God to set them free unharmed.

Rollas explained that the AGN has arranged for medical checks and psychological support for the actors; advising its members to be security conscious and avoid going to the outskirts of cities to film; except full security cover is provided.
