Renowned Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo, has stated that his gender is an ‘endangered’ group.
He said this in an episode of ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast co-hosted by Husband Material, and Deity Cole.
The Nollywood veteran explained that the constant spending on female actors by male actors has a negative effect on other male actors, adding that such actions downplay efforts of their male counterparts.
“Many Nigerian rich men patronise our women and give them benefits that make us look like we are not working hard.
“Nigerian rich men, most of them spend money on our girls to the extent that it impoverishes us. You call a girl, she’s your girlfriend, she says she wants to do a production and demand N100 million to N150 million and you give her. But if na me wey be KOK, you’ll say ‘go and work hard, my friend.’
“Let’s look into this issue because have you seen any lady ask for financial help for any medical expenses? It’s only the men. We are an endangered species, that’s what I am saying.” He lamented.
