Veteran Nollywood actor Hanks Anuku has become the subject of fresh online debate after a viral video showed him lying by the roadside, prompting reactions from colleagues and fans.
Reacting to the clip, Nollywood director Jemitalo claimed that the actor’s current condition is the result of alleged ritual practices and “blood money.”
“What my senior colleague, Hank Anuku, is going through at the moment is the result of ritual and blood money.”
The claim has generated mixed reactions on social media, with many Nigerians questioning the allegation and urging people not to jump to conclusions about the actor’s situation without evidence.
Others expressed sympathy for the veteran actor, saying he deserves compassion, support, and rehabilitation rather than speculation about the cause of his condition.
