Teen actress Angel Unigwe has filed a lawsuit against veteran actor Kanayo O. Kanayo over allegations of contract breach.

According to Thepaan, on June 21, 2024, Kanayo publicly accused Angel of failing to honor a contract she signed for a production. He also alleged that Unigwe’s mother is notorious for removing her daughter from sets prematurely, thereby breaching agreements. Kanayo went further to threaten any future productions involving Angel.

In response, Juliet Kings Unigwe, Angel’s mother, issued a statement on Angel’s Instagram page on Wednesday, refuting the allegations and calling them false and slanderous.
