Kanayo O. Kanayo urged his peers and followers to extend similar opportunities to their children, thereby fostering respect and understanding within the realm of cinema.
He said: “We resumed filming today. My son, Clinton, Onyeze Mbaise, joins us as Assistant Production Manager & my Personal Assistant. He is an intern to understudy Film making and Management before proceeding to further studies. We should let our children work in our organisations or other establishments to appreciate the industry.
