Nigerian film industry veteran, Kanayo O Kanayo, stirred nostalgia among his fans and followers by showcasing a collection of old Nigerian and Biafran currencies.

Through a video shared on his social media accounts, the accomplished actor shared a glimpse of money notes from the Biafran War era and the period when Nigeria used pounds before the introduction of the Naira.

Kanayo O. Kanayo revealed that he had carefully preserved these historical currencies in a safe box, aiming to remind people of their cultural heritage and history.

He also exhibited cowries and a unique currency called iron money (Ego Igwe), which held significance in marrying royalty.

The display was met with appreciation from his admirers, who found themselves reminiscing about the past.
