Actor KOK Recounts How EX Gov Peter Obi Sent Him The Prize Of A Cow For His Mum's Burial

Nollywood Actor Kanayo.O.Kanayo has narrated an upclose experience with the 2023 Presidential candidate of Labour Party(LP),Peter Obi,on how he gave him the sum of N250,000 for his mother's burial.

During an Interview with AfiaTv,KOK disclosed that in 2011,right after his mother's burial, Peter Obi had called him around 1am to send his condolences.

In his words:

"In 2011,I was to bury my mum, I had many senators who were my friends, I had many governors who were my friends, I wrote to all of them.
Two weeks after the funeral, Peter Obi called me by 1am;in his little voice and said, 'Nwannem, I just got your letter and I know the burial is over, Biko you know I would have come if I saw your letter(translating his words to English)In Igbo burial rites, I would send you a cow'.

He sent to me exactly the prize of a cow and you know... somebody would have thought that he would give you 2 million for the burial in 2011.
I want to say it on this program;I think he went to the market and prized a cow which was N250k and that was what he sent to me.

But the story here is he was a governor but he had the time to call me, some of us are too busy for our friends, when they leave office, they would be Iike 'my brother, that job wanted to kill me'.

If you can't return calls, even one week or two weeks later, we are not friends because the danger occupying a public office in Nigeria and I've said it severally, no person should fly business class when you are serving government, it should all be economy, then if you want,you can upgrade it with your personal money because remember what Lai Mohammed said that Nollywood is promoting promiscuity and rituals, who promotes rigging in election, the same you".
