‘Men Are Endangered Species’ – Kanayo O Kanayo

Kanayo O. Kanayo, a veteran of Nollywood, has made a provocative statement, labeling men as ‘endangered species.’

He expressed concern that wealthy men often lavish excessive spending on female actors, creating a false narrative that their male counterparts are not diligent in their work.

Kanayo shared his thoughts on a recent episode of the ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast, which he appeared on alongside co-hosts Husband Material and Deity Cole.

“Many Nigerian rich men patronise our women and give them benefits that make us look like we are not working hard,” he lamented.

“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.”
