There was a shock assassination attempt on the life of popular Nollywood actor Harry B Anywanwu. Sources close to Anywanwu also confirmed the ugly development said, the actor was on his way back from a movie location last Friday (December 11, 2015) when he met a blockade mounted by suspected Cultists who were jubilating in pretence just to accomplish their evil plot.

Unaware of their intentions, the actor alighted from his car to exchange greetings with the boys whom he thought were his fans. He even dropped some money for them  before turning back to return to his vehicle, when the suspected cultists dragged him and inflicted heavy machete cuts on him until they ensured his legs were cut off.
