Veteran actor Kanayo O. Kanayo has sent a message to Nigerians.
He emphasized on the need for gratitude.
He spoke against people not showing gratitude when they receive favour or help.
Kanayo specifically pointed out instances where people send money to others, only to receive a curt “seen” in response.
He urged his followers to cultivate gratitude, noting that unspoken appreciation is equivalent to ingratitude.
He wrote:
“Hello, my friends, I have one question. Why are people very ungrateful?”
“You do somebody a favour by sending him or her money and the person receives it and sends you a text saying ‘seen’. Seen? Come on! Do you think it’s your right? That’s an inheritance mentality; people are like this and it doesn’t show that you are ungrateful.
“Look, gratitude unspoken is ingratitude spoken. It’s not your right so learn to be grateful for whatever someone does for you. That way, the person will be encouraged to do more. Stop being selfish; be grateful because nobody owes you anything. Have a beautiful week ahead”, he said on Instagram.
