Veteran Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo, says he is unbothered about unforeseen spiritual forces, especially when playing movie roles that involve going into a coffin.

Naija News reports that the movie star, popularly known for his ritual roles, made this known in a recent interview with Eastern Eye TV.

Kanayo said he does not need to sanctify himself or bind unseen forces when playing roles that involve entering coffins because God gave him the talent, and he plays the role without any sentiment.

He said, “God gave me a talent. When I’m playing a role in a movie that involves going into a coffin. I do not sanctify myself or start binding unseen forces. I just play my role and get out. #KOKisOK.”
