The 72‑year‑old veteran actor has described himself as one of the pioneers of the Nigerian movie industry, recalling that he joined theatre at just 10 years old in 1964, and went on to start his own group in 1972.
Speaking on the evolution of entertainment, he said many older actors were initially wary of social media but have now learnt to adapt and use it to their advantage. He condemned how some people in the industry misuse the platforms by dancing provocatively and posting “jargons” online.
On a more emotional note, he revealed he has lost three wives, including the mother of his celebrity daughter Bidemi Kosoko, who died during childbirth.
He also opened up about his health, explaining that he became diabetic in 1996 and has learnt to manage it over the years. According to him, he now understands his condition “better than some doctors.”
