Veteran Nollywood actor, Kanayo O Kanayo, has publicly accused teen actress Angel Unigwe and her mother of breaching a contract. In a video shared on his Instagram page, Kanayo detailed the alleged misconduct and issued a stern warning to the film industry.

               According to Kanayo, Angel Unigwe’s mother has a habit of violating agreements with movie producers after receiving payment. He explained that this issue had come to his attention through various reports, but he personally experienced it recently during a film project. An agreement was in place for Angel to stay on set until midnight; however, her mother came to the set at 9 pm and took her away, thereby breaching their contract.

               Kanayo expressed his frustration and disappointment, emphasizing the impact of such actions on the professionalism and reliability within the Nollywood industry. He accused Angel’s mother of holding producers to ransom, disrupting film schedules, and causing significant inconvenience.

               The actor warned movie producers not to engage Angel Unigwe for any film projects from July 2024. He threatened to disrupt the production of any set that hires her, stating that he would personally ensure filming does not proceed if his warning is ignored.

               Kanayo made it clear that his issue was not with Angel Unigwe herself but solely with her mother. He described the young actress as talented and professional but lamented that her mother’s actions were damaging her reputation and career prospects.

               Kanayo called on the community of producers to support his stance, emphasizing the importance of upholding contractual agreements and maintaining professionalism. He received support from other actors and producers in the industry, who shared similar experiences with Angel's mother.

               This incident highlights the need for stricter contract enforcement and better communication in the Nollywood industry. It also raises concerns about the impact of unprofessional behavior on the careers of talented individuals like Angel Unigwe.

               In conclusion, Kanayo O Kanayo's warning to the film industry is a necessary measure to protect the integrity and smooth operation of the entertainment industry in Nigeria. His actions aim to ensure that contractual agreements are respected and that professionalism is maintained.
