Kanayo O Kanayo spurs history with video of old Nigerian, Biafran currencies

Nollywood legend Kanyo O Kanayo has revived his fans' and followers' thoughts with ancient Nigerian and Biafran money in his possession.

The talented actor posted a video of several currency notes from the Biafran War and a time when Nigeria was still using pounds before the introduction of the Naira note on social media.

To remind people of his origins' history, Kanayo said that the currency had been in a safe box for a very long period.

He also displayed cowries and an unusual coin known as iron money (Ego Igwe), which was primarily used in royal marriages.
