Gunmen are said to have stormed a movie set where Nigerian Nollywood actor Sylvester Madu had been invited, killing four persons and injuring more than ten others.

On Saturday night, he was attacked.

According to witnesses, Cameroonian fans greeted him enthusiastically, unable to contain their joy at finally seeing the star.
