Renowned Nollywood actor,
Kanayo O. Kanayo, has said he could not celebrate his 55th birthday on
Wednesday due to the crisis in the country.
He said
he couldn’t have celebrated with religious crisis and innocent blood crying all
over the land.
On his Instagram page
@Kanayo.o.Kanayo, he wrote: “My dear friends, Proximate and distant. Today’s
March 1st. It’s my birthday. It’s a day of sober reflections. I have a lot to
thank God for but a lot to reminisce over.
“How can I celebrate? We live in
very challenging times and at cross roads.
“The citizenry is divided along
ethnic and religious lines. There’s so much waste of lives, innocent blood
crying all over the land. How then can we have peace? Families are in pain of
either want or insecurity. How can I celebrate?
“My heart goes out to those
caught in the web of displacement in their own land, widows, orphans(
especially those orphaned by unnecessary killings) and internally displaced
persons, who cannot even explain the cause of their displacement. I ask, How
can I celebrate?
“Human life just became a number.
Sanctity of life is subsidized. We shall overcome and pray NEVER to walk
through this PATH again.”
