Kanayo O Kanayo threatens to disrupt Angel Unigwe film sets over contract breach
Kanayo O Kanayo has threatened to disrupt any movie production involving Angel Unigwe, the fast-rising actress.
In a social media post, Kanayo accused Unigwe of contract breach.
Kanayo said the mother of the teen actress did not allow her daughter to honour their agreement during a recent production.
He alleged that the youngster’s mum is “fond of botching productions” by taking her daughter away from sets.
Kanayo cited a set where the teen actress was taken away at 9 pm when the set was contractually meant to close at midnight.
He added that the actress’ mother has also been threatening film producers.
Kanayo said his decision to disrupt film productions involving Unigwe is to “save and protect” Nigeria’s film industry.
“A contract is reached by every producer either orally or written and it is all respected,” he said.
“Immediately this woman takes money from you everything changes.
“I have gotten reports from people before it happened to me.
“Last night, she took her daughter at 9 pm when a particular day we agreed had not expired. And this is a clarion call for every producer.
“In the name of professionalism and all that unites us, from the 21st day of June 2024, any set that employs the services of Angel Unigwe, I will come to that set and make sure filming does not hold.”
Unigwe, aged 18, has been featured in several movies and television series.
These include ‘Light in the Dark’, ‘Here Love Lies’, ‘The Olive’, ‘King of Boys’, and ‘Discerning Eyes’.
Unigwe won the Trailblazer Award at the 2023 AMVCA.

The hitmaker also warned his critics not to mistake his silence for weakness.

“Bundle by bundle! No sign of weakness!”

I earn more from car wash business than music, says Jason Derulo
Jason Derulo, the American singer, says he earns more from his car washing business than music.
Derulo, who owns a car wash business called Rocket CarWash, shared in an interview that the venture has become more profitable than his music career.
He said he did not expect the business to be so successful, especially since he has never advertised it.
He added that Rocket CarWash is a unique glass-walled facility where customers can watch the car washing process as if it were a show.
“It’s true that I make more money from my car washing business than my music. It’s pretty crazy. It’s something that I didn’t expect at all. I got into it, I thought that it would be good but I didn’t think that was going to be a life-changing event,” he said.
“You know what’s crazy? I have never even advertised my car washing business. It’s pretty amazing. It’s a super car wash. It’s not like the ones you’re probably used to. It’s all glass so when your car is being washed, everybody can see the action. It’s like a show.”
Derulo is best known for hits like ‘Whatcha Say’, ‘Talk Dirty’, and ‘Savage Love’.
