A lawsuit has been filed by the mother of actress Angel Unigwe against veteran actor Kanayo O Kanayo, alleging defamation and breach of contract.
Recall that on June 21, 2024, Kanayo publicly criticized Angel Unigwe on social media, accusing her of not carrying out a production deal that he had arranged.
He also stated that Unigwe’s mother has a history of breaching contracts by removing her daughter away from sets prematurely.
In addition, Kanayo promised to ruin any movie project that involved the young actress Angel.
In a press release that was placed on the actress’s Instagram page, Juliet Kings Unigwe, Angel’s mother, reacted to the claims, characterizing them as malicious and untrue. She disclosed that legal actions are being taken to solve the issue.
“First, for the public records we wish to state categorically that we hold sacred the terms of any contract we enter into and we are fully committed to performing all lawful obligations required of us under such contracts.
“We vehemently deny the false accusations and slanderous statements contained in Mr. Kanayo’s video. We want to assure the public that we have done no such thing and are deeply hurt by these unfounded allegations.”
