Veteran Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo, has sparked a variety of reactions with his heartfelt prayers for his son, who is preparing to relocate to America.
It is noteworthy that Kanayo's son has been admitted to a university in the United States of America, and as he embarks on this new journey, the actor expressed his pride and offered a heartfelt prayer on his son's behalf.
In a video shared on his Instagram page, Kanayo can be seen praying for his son's well-being. As part of his prayer, he specifically requested that his son maintain his identity and orientation as a 'He', despite societal pressures.
Furthermore, Kanayo included other important aspects in his prayer, such as focusing on academic achievements rather than tattoos, and urging his son to uphold the values instilled in him during his upbringing.
In his own words:
"America will be proud of you. Your achievements will cause America to celebrate you. You will imbibe the good of the land and enjoy its blessings. You will continue to be a 'He' from Ezinihitte Mbaise in Nigeria. Your focus shall be on your education and career, not on tattoos. May you never deviate from the principles instilled in you during your upbringing. Do not forget God. You shall always remain under God's guidance and protection. Good luck, my son."
