Nigerian soldiers can be seen dragging and assaulting a popular Nollywood actor, Chiwetalu Agu, in a video widely shared on social media.

Agu, 65, appears to be wearing a Biafra-themed outfit on a busy road when he is confronted by the soldiers.

There has been a decades-long campaign for the creation of the breakaway state of Biafra in south-east Nigeria.

We have not been able to confirm the authenticity of the video, and our BBC Pidgin colleagues have failed to get a response from the Nigerian army.
