” I would like to be seen as an actor, but we cannot rule out the fact that i am more known as a Yoruba actor, like i used to tell people an actor is an actor regardless of the language and we cannot rule out the fact that if this person cannot speak English he cannot act English movies or if this person cannot speak Yoruba he shouldn’t be a Yoruba actor but i am an actor and i have acted in a couple of English movies’
He went further to say that stardom has made him a shy person and it has taken a reasonable part of his privacy but he appreciates it and loves what he does.
