Nigerian movie star, Kanayo O. Kanayo has weighed in on the never ending religious debate about Christians and their first fruit in a new year.
The veteran actor opposed the idea of people taking their first salary to pastors, and said they should instead should give it to fathers in order to receive blessings in line with culture.
Kanayo gave the advice in a video posted on his Instagram page on Friday, May 10 while using his son as an example to buttress his point.
This is coming few days after the Nollywood star shared that his son, Clinton had come on set to join him as an intern worker. Kanayo said the boy was paid N50k, from which he collected N500 and prayed over the money.
According to him, the money parents might collect from their children as first fruit can vary based on different individuals, but this is the more proper way to do things, especially in the Igbo culture.
Kanayo wrote: “Take your first SALARY to your father for his blessings NOT TO YOUR PASTOR. And to that Pastor who said it belongs to him in a video in January, did you ever consider, the feeding/ transportation to and fro the office for that month? Where is this in the Bible? CHRISTIANS WAKE UP. This is not Christianity.”
