Hanks Anuku’s Manager Clarifies Actor’s Mental State After Viral Video Sparks Concern
Nollywood veteran Hanks Anuku recently became the subject of online chatter after a video surfaced showing him seated by a roadside in Abuja, speaking to himself while holding a disposable cup.
The clip quickly spread across platforms, prompting fans to question his mental well‑being.
Manager Responds to Social Media Speculation
In response, his long‑time manager Moses Allen spoke with Premium Times to address the rumors.
Allen explained that Anuku’s expressive actions are part of his artistic process and should not be mistaken for instability.
He said, “He does not live in the normal world we do; his presence is in a creative realm, and what looks odd to outsiders is often just rehearsal or imagination.”
The manager emphasized that the actor remains a responsible family man and is currently in his best mental state.
Allen invited skeptics to engage directly, suggesting a call to hear Anuku’s coherence for themselves.
He concluded by urging the public to allow artists the space to be themselves without labeling unconventional behavior as madness.
