Legendary Nigerian actor Kanayo O Kanayo introduced his first son Clinton into the movie industry.
On a film set, Kanayo presented Clinton to the members of his production firm, Simpliciter Associates Productions, in an Instagram post on Monday.
Clinton, he added, will become his personal assistant in addition to joining the team as assistant production manager.
The talented actor also told the team that his son had enlisted and shouldn’t be treated like a youngster.
“This is Clinton Onyeze Mbaise, my first son. And he is joining us today as assistant production manager and as PA to me. Do not treat him like my son. It is a warning I am giving to everybody. He is here to work. He is going to earn a fee like every other person,” he said.
“Do not begin to say na K.O.K son. I no dey for that kind thing. Treat him as member of production crew. He is going to understudy the production manager and learn this work. Treat him with respect to the extent that you are treating others with respect. That is what I want him to grow into. I do not want you to spoil my son for me when you are not telling him not to do some things.
“So please he is joining us today. He has just finished from Babcock University. He studied ICT.”
