In a surprising and fiery outburst, Nollywood legend Kanayo O Kanayo ignited social media with a sensational video where he openly criticized Juliet Ifechi Unigwe, the mother and manager of his younger colleague, Angel Unigwe.
The veteran actor began by accusing Mrs. Unigwe of holding numerous movie producers to ransom, revealed that he had heard about her numerous misdeeds from other filmmakers she had allegedly ghosted as well.
Kanayo alleged that Mrs. Unigwe extorts money from these filmmakers and fails to honor her commitments. He revealed that he is the latest victim to fall prey to her unscrupulous tactics.
Detailing his grievance, Kanayo recounted a recent incident on his set. The movie legend said he had arranged for Angel Unigwe to work throughout the day, only for Mrs. Unigwe to storm onto the set at 9 PM, forcibly removing her daughter despite the agreed-upon time not having lapsed.
Kanayo viewed this abrupt action as a blatant breach of contract and a disruptive affront to the professionalism expected in Nollywood.
The actor didn’t stop there. He issued a stern warning to his colleagues, emphatically stating that any movie producer who hires Angel Unigwe without her completing her obligations on his project would incur his wrath.
He threatened to personally disrupt their productions until the proper procedures were followed.
Kanayo passionately stated that his drastic actions were aimed at addressing the widespread unprofessionalism that has crept into the modern Nollywood scene.
