Emphasizing equality, Kanayo Kanayo ardently insisted that Onyeze be accorded no special privileges but rather be afforded the invaluable opportunity to absorb the intricacies of the filmmaking process organically, seamlessly assimilating into the dynamic tapestry of the film set.

“This is my first son, and I am introducing him to you so that you can know him and help him grow and learn. I don’t want him to be treated in a special way because he’s my son. I want him to learn and grow like every one of you.

“He has just graduated from Babcock University, and he’s going to function as the assistant production manager and rise through the ranks.

‘He’s my son, but he should be made to understand the job and learn it professionally,” he added.
