Kanayo O. Kanayo criticises VeryDarkMan

Shortly after VeryDarkMan’s video went viral, Kanayo went online to share his thoughts on it.

In a very heated video, the movie star condemned Reno Omokri, VeryDarkMan and others who were using Mr Ibu’s case to castigate others.

According to him, there is nothing wrong with the actor’s family crying out for help online. KOK noted that those who have would help him, and it should not be a reason to attack those who have not.

KOK also warned against using Mr Ibu’s name to trend. In the caption of his video, he wrote:

“Gaining traction with someone's misfortune, handicap, ill luck is wicked. Give, if you have to, without calling for the attention of the social media. One ' very dark man' calling top actors, shameless is unruly and attention seeking. @realmribu please get well soon.”
