Veteran actor Chief Kanran cries for help, says fire destroyed his home and studio

Veteran Yoruba actor Olusegun Akinremi, known as Chief Kanran, has cried out for help as he shared a sad story of how he lost all he has to fire.

Chief Kanran stated that his home and studio were destroyed by fire three years ago. The actor revealed that he has been sleeping in his church since the sad incident happened.

The popular veteran Yoruba actor is, therefore, seeking financial assistance from Nigerians to help him to secure an accommodation.

The actor revealed this in an interview with a popular Yoruba radio talk show host, Kola Olootu.

At a point, while speaking, he started shedding tears as he noted that he was almost begging on the streets for food but for his status as a star.

Chief Kanran stated that he is not asking for the money to feed but for some money to start his work again as an artiste.

“Seven years ago, things got bad for me. I was not ill and whatever will make me ill and people will start contributing for me, I thank God that it did not happen to me.

“However, what is currently happening to me is more than being ill. In 2017, my home got burnt from top to down and my wife and children deserted me.”

“My studio, where all my equipment were, also got burnt. Since the incident happened over a year ago, I have been sleeping in my church as I don’t have money to rent an apartment.

“Feeding has also been difficult for me. All my four cars are no longer with me. I sold one to feed, one got burnt, another one got knocked,” he said amidst tears.
