Nigerian legendary actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo has cautioned parents against accepting monetary gifts from their children without finding out the source.
The veteran actor gave the warning at a recent event where he implored parents to be more proactive in monitoring their children's financial activities.
Kanayo urged parents to inculcate the habit of questioning their kids on where and how they get things, adding that they should be mindful of accepting expensive gifts especially when their kids are not actively doing anything substantial.
"If your 20-year-old daughter owns a phone worth N1.5 million and she hands you N100,000 without explaining its origin, you're endangering yourself," Kanayo asserted.
"This casual approach is detrimental to many parents. If your unemployed son suddenly presents you with money or a car, it's imperative to ask questions. I'm cautioning you," he concluded.
