By the time you are reading this today (Tuesday, September 15), veteran actor Anayo Modestus Onyekwere, the man you all know as Kanayo O. Kanayo or simply KOK, would have been dining and wining with his well wishers.
It is the day the 58-year-old Nollywood star has been called to Bar by the Body of Benchers in Abuja.
Recall that Maggie’s Blog broke the news some months back about the Mbaise, Imo State-born actor’s graduation from Law School.
Some days back, KOK who In 1992, made his debut movie appearance in the film “Living in Bondage”, sent out invitation to very close friends, colleagues, relations and well wishers to wine and dine with him after being made a Barrister-at-Law.
The cover of the IV reads:
