The father of one told our

more time for my wife and kids. I want to have a happy home. So, I am
really planning to start producing alone. I no longer act. I no longer
go to locations like before because i have people working for me. All I
do now is to produce, run the promo then market because i have a
marketing outlet at Alaba international market Ojo, and also an outlet
at Iweka road in Onisha Anambra State.
He was

build something so big and massive like that. Atimes when I get there I
always ask myself is this really my house? I thank God”.
