Veteran Nollywood actor Kanayo O. Kanayo has threatened to blacklist fast-rising teen actress Angel Unigwe over a breach of contract, News About Nigeria reports.
The actor took to his Instagram page to express his disappointment in the actions of the actress and her mother.
He explained that the actress, with the help of her mother, had breached their contract by walking out of his production set when the agreed-upon time on the contract had not elapsed.
He noted that Angel’s mother took her daughter from the movie set at 9 p.m., when the particular day they agreed to shoot had not expired as the day was supposed to have expired at 12 a.m., adding that this action led to a disruption of the movie production.
According to KOK, he had always heard tales about Angel and her mother’s conduct on movie sets and that he finally became a victim, claiming that the teenage star’s mum immediately changed her behaviour after reaching a contract with producers and collecting money for a job.
He further called on other movie producers not to use the services of the teenage actress owing to the actions of her mother, maintaining that he would disrupt any set that employs the services of the actress.
“This is a clarion call to every producer, please I beg you in the name of professionalism and all that unites us. From this moment, 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. You guys know what it is for an artist to walk out on a set.
“I want to guarantee all of you that we had a very good working relationship with Angel. Her mother has been threatening many producers. So please I don’t want to block anybody’s shooting schedule but please I will monitor from this moment any set where I find Angel Unigwe shooting, it will be disrupted. This is not a threat to anybody,” he stated.
