In Nigeria, it is a rare occurrence to witness a veteran actor like Hanks Anuku participating in a protest, but he has managed to defy this trend.
The famous Nollywood actor went out to the streets to demonstrate against the current difficulties faced in Nigeria, particularly the rising cost of food.
Hanks Anuku, dressed in plain attire, proudly waved the Nigerian flag, resembling a soldier coming back from battle, as he repeated the phrase “Hunger dey”.
This powerful action deeply impacted internet users, sparking a lengthy conversation.
