  "account": "The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) is collaborating with US-based technology firm Bebuzee to generate supplementary revenue streams for its members via a specialized digital community. During a recent unveiling, AGN's National President, Abubakar Yakubu, announced the partnership, which will see the guild become the latest brand ambassador for Bebuzee, an AI-driven super app that recently debuted in Nigeria.\n\nThe collaboration culminates in the launch of an exclusive AGN community on Bebuzee's platform on October 31. Bebuzee promises community members VIP status, while those who contribute content, fans, and creative enterprises to the platform will receive immediate payments for their posts. For AGN members, this partnership represents a potential avenue to enhance their financial standing, as many rely heavily on traditional artiste fees and earnings from existing social media platforms.\n\nYakubu, now among seven other Nollywood figures affiliated with Bebuzee, emphasized the opportunity for actors to boost their earnings. \"Apart from YouTube and other social media platforms, this will also add to their earnings for their creative work. The more they earn, the better it gets for them.\"",
