Veteran Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo celebrates his son, Clinton Onyekwere on his 22nd birthday by highlighting his admirable qualities.

Taking to Instagram, Kanayo O. Kanayo shared a photo of his son, accompanied by a heart-melting caption.

The proud father described his son as a selfless individual who cares deeply about his younger siblings’ feelings.

He reminisced about how Clinton rejected lavish gifts to ensure his siblings’ contentment. However, Kanayo made it clear that being 22 doesn’t exempt his son from discipline and punishment, emphasizing his pride in being an African who values and upholds his cultural traditions.

In his words;

“Onyeze Mbaise, Clinton Onyekwere, my first son is 22 years old today (10/11). While I join millions of friends to wish him a happy birthday, I declare as follows:

“Onyeze Mbaise has the most infectious smile I ever saw on my mother’s face. A son with a good heart. If you ever took him out, and bought him anything, he will remind you he has an only sister, Valerie, and two younger one’s, Kosisocchukwu, Einstein, and that instead of buying one expensive item for him,, you should kindly spread that money to buy for him and his siblings. Wonderful boy.

“On this birthday, dear Onyeze, DO NOT tell me you are now 22 and therefore you can drink alcohol, smoke, do what the boys do, park out of our house etc. BEING 22 IS NOT A LICENCE TO IRRESPONSIBILITY.

My dear son, many parents are going through a lot with their children after turning 21. Don’t forget, I am an African, a traditional Igbo Chief, Ihe Mbaise ji ka Mba, Ugwu Ndigbo, a knock on the head is still part of our culture, that moulded many of us. You can still get one WITH LOVE. Happy birthday. Ya gazie Your dad.”
