He spoke in an interview with Encomium Magazine on October 29, 2014 about the difficulties of being a celebrity.
The married father of three
admitted that he is a product of the media and though being a celebrity
has its perks it's also a struggle. This is what the 49 year old star
had to say :
" There are Quite a lot
of sweet things about being a movie star. But it comes with a prize. In
fact, stardom is a burden, a huge burden on your shoulder. If you don’t
know how to manage yourself, you will fall by the way side because pride
goes before a fall. If you don’t know how to manage stardom, it can
intoxicate you. It’s like power, you get carried away. It’s such a
powerful force. So, you need to control it, you need to subdue it,
otherwise it would get into your head and subdue you. You got to know
where you are coming from. Watch over the ladder that helped you climb
to the top or else somebody would remove it and you would crash. You
would definitely step on toes as you walk along, but recognize your
mistake, go back and apologise. Carry people along. Be humble, above
other things"
The Obafemi Awolowo University graduate revealed that he is returning on air with his TV show on AIT.
