Veteran Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo has revived many hopes, by doing the unthinkable, as he was among the latest lawyers called to Nigerian bar.

The Nollywood icon in a recent Instagram post shared a photo of himself in full law regalia and thanked to God for the new feat.

In his post, Kanayo said: “To God be all the Glory. You can now address me as Anayo Modestus Onyekwere, Esq, MFR (Barrister And Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria).”

At age 58, Kanayo has proven to his fans that everything is achievable once a person is filled with dedication and a burning passion to achieve his/her desires.

The celebrated movie veteran a month ago, became the latest full-fledged barrister that will be joining the justice system just after passing his call to bar examination.

The movie star simply shared a screenshot of a report noting that he has passed his law school exams.

Giving fans a better grasp of Kanayo’s latest achievement, a friend of the actor on Facebook identified as Chris Kehinde Nwandu said: “Join me in congratulating my brother and bosom friend, veteran actor KOK who just passed his Law School exams to qualify as a full-fledged Barrister at Law.”
