Since he made his acting debut, the Cell Biology and Genetics graduate of the University of Lagos has not looked back in his quest to become a household name in the Nigerian entertainment circuit. 

The actor, who recently delved into creating comedy skits has featured in quite a number of movies including Oko Mummy, Demoosha and others, has advised other rising actors to be consistent in whatever they are doing.

He said, “Passion is like an investment. Young artistes should be consistent with living. Many do not see it so, but passion is an investment. The more you keep doing what you love doing, the more you are investing in yourself, because you become better each day, and a day will surely come when your passion will speak for you. When you invest into what you love doing, over time it brings reward beyond your wildest imagination.”
