Nollywood actor, Kanayo Kanayo, has sparked reactions by involving his son in the film industry.
On his Instagram page, the experienced actor posted a video of himself and his son having breakfast, explaining that their busy morning filming schedule had delayed their first meal until after 1 pm.
He proudly said that his son was quickly grasping the ins and outs of the industry.
“My son is learning the ropes. We are eating breakfast at 1pm due to a tight morning filming schedule. Ka Onyeze Mbaise mara na ihe ana eme adiro easy. ” THAT HE MAY KNOW THAT NOTHING GOOD COMES EASY. PLEASE WATCH ” MIDNIGHT CRUSH on Kanayo O Kanayo”.
His comment caused a split in opinions, with some praising him for educating his son about the industry, while others criticized him for involving the boy in the industry.
Re Honour 199 commented, “Kanayo, it’s unwise pushing your son into Nollywood to takeover. You’re forgetting Nollywood isn’t family bizz but talent. More unwise becoming mere crew. P.A after studying ICT in Babcock, it doesn’t tally. May be against God’s plan. U’ve link to a big job for him. This is not a good sacrifice. Be wise, don’t be unwise”.
One, My King commented, “He has the means to prepare the future for his son but rather, he’s preparing him for the future”.
Another person, Port of Gould commented, “Apprenticeship is the most efficient model for knowledge transfer. Proven over and over again. Una dey do well”.
And, Gracious Onyilo commented, “I love the bond and impact you’re instilling on the young man. It will stand the taste of time”.
Graphics Design Gùru commented, “Like father, like son. See how he is so fine”.
Weeks ago, Kanayo discussed some of his acting roles, particularly one where he enters a coffin.
He explained that he does not perform any rituals or bind supernatural forces when playing such roles.
He justified this by stating that God has given him talent, so he does not need to purify himself for these roles. According to him, he simply acts out the scenes and then moves on.
Throughout his career, Kanayo has gained recognition for his roles in movies involving money rituals.
Addressing this, he clarified that he is not involved in any sacrifices and that his faith lies solely in Jesus.
As a highly respected Nollywood actor, Kanayo admitted that he will continue to take on roles involving night sacrifices as long as they bring financial gain.
