Posted by Daniel on Tue 05th May, 2015 - tori.ngVeteran Yoruba actor, Olumide Bakare, has said, despite issues with his health, he won't stop smoking, drinking and chasing after women. In an interview, the actor explained that these were habits he cultivated from his youth days, therefore, it will be difficult for him to just do away with them at the drop of a hat. He also spoke on marriage and his beliefs about God.
Popular Yoruba actor, Olumide Bakare, who reportedly battled with a heart-related ailment in 2013, has said that despite the issues with his health, he won't completely stop smoking, womanizing and drinking alcohol.
The 63-year-old versatile actor, who feautured in Tunde Kelani's award-winning fllm - Ma'ami - explained the reason why it would not be an easy accomplishment for him to drop these habits in an interview with Encomium Magazine.
"I have not out-rightly stopped but I have slowed down. I don't know how to tell lies. I still smoke and drink. I still find time to sleep with women. But the truth is that I am not doing all these things as before. And the fact still remains that I am not properly married", he told the magazine.
In response to the question if he was taking any precautions to curtail these vices, the actor said: "Let me tell you one thing about life. God doesn't care about habit but your heart. How clean is your heart to God and people around you? How do you sail across the ocean of your life and all that? All these are what God cares about. It is not about whether you smoke or drink. Even those who don't smoke and drink, worse things happen to them. I am a very straight forward person I have been in all these habits for about 45 years and I want to tell you, no shaking", he said
