He urged Nigerians to respect the couple’s union and celebrate their happiness rather than tearing them down.

In his words, “Nigerian women are some of the most miserable women in the world. There is nothing that annoys and irritates a Nigerian woman more than seeing you marry a woman who is way out of her league. It pains them to their bones.”

The actor got his big break in the movie industry after starring in the Ramsey Nouah directorial debut, "Living in Bondage: Breaking Free", which was released in 2019.

In an interview with Legit.ng, he spoke about being stereotyped and getting boxed into only playing a particular character.

In his words:

I do not like to be stereotyped; it makes me lazy, it makes me comfortable, too comfortable. So I would rather just do different things and have fans so that it doesn't get really boring for me and I don't find anymore pleasure in something i used to be very passionate about.
