First salary is for your father, not pastor, Kanayo advises new employees
Popular Nollywood actor Kanayo O. Kanayo chose to honour African customs by giving his son fatherly blessings and accepting his first salary for his work on set.
Kanayo recently welcomed his son, Clinton Mbaise, into the world of filmmaking.
According to Kanayo, many people in the nation have advanced as a result of learning about this culture from their ancestors.
After Clinton and his father finished their first motion picture, they were awarded N50,000.
In the video shared on Kanayo’s Instagram account on Thursday, he requested N500 from the salary his son earned and then prayed for him to succeed in the industry.
The Nollywood legend advised Nigerians to always give their first salary to their father for his blessings and not to their pastors. He emphasised that only a father can bless his child.

Kanayo said, “I want to observe a culture from our ancestors that has led to the progress of many people you see today: ”Father blessing.”
“Clinton, my son just concluded a few production management jobs with us, and he has earned his first salary; his first salary is N50,000 for a movie.
“Clinton, from your pocket in the N50,000, give me N500.
“The first salary of a young man, he goes to his father to say, Nnayi, my salary is N50,000. The father may decide to take the entire money; he may also decide to take any amount, and his father will now bless him.
“The idea of his father asking him to know the salary is that his father would teach him financial management.
“All you going to pastors to give your salary; you are wasting your time; this is not part of our culture.”
