Ace Nollywood actor, Chiwetalu Agu has regained his freedom after spending about four days in the custody of the Department of State Service (DSS).

The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) broke the news in a statement via its Instagram page.

The movie star was first arrested last Thursday by soldiers for wearing an outfit themed after the flag of Biafra during which he was also reportedly assaulted.

The army had in a statement said the comic actor was apprehended after he publicly displayed his solidarity for the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

 Amid the widespread criticism triggered by the army’s action, AGU was eventually released on Friday, after spending nearly 24 hours in detention.

But a few hours after his release by the army, he was arrested by the DSS for “further questioning” and has now been released.
