Nollywood veteran, Kanayo O. Kanayo, has stirred controversy with his recent assertion that Nigerian men are an endangered species. The actor made this claim during a podcast appearance, where he expressed concern over the financial disparities between male and female actors.

Kanayo lamented that wealthy Nigerian men often lavish large sums of money on female actors, creating an unfair advantage and making it seem as though male counterparts are less hardworking. He cited instances where actresses have received millions of naira for film projects, while male actors struggle to secure similar support.

The actor further emphasized the financial burden on men, stating that they are more likely to face financial challenges, including medical expenses, compared to women. Kanayo’s comments have sparked debate about gender roles, financial inequality, and the dynamics of the Nigerian entertainment industry.
