  • In a candid conversation about his experiences as a thespian in the golden years of life, Oga Bello let the cat out of the bag, confessing to a long-standing bout with the silent storm of hypertension, which has been on his tail since he clocked 28 but hasn’t put a damper on his career.
  • His revelation prompted a heartwarming response from fellow actors such as Odunlade Adekola and Jide Kosoko, as well as a chorus of devoted fans who flocked to his comment section to send up fervent prayers for his continued robust health and an age as ripe as a fine wine.

The seasoned Nollywood legend, Adebayo Salami, who goes by the moniker Oga Bello, recently offered a glimpse into one of his interviews.

With unwavering confidence, the actor, in the interview, proclaimed that he still possesses the burning desire to not only tread the boards as an actor but also take the helm as a producer, a feat not everyone can attain at his age.

Oga Bello uncovered a surprising fact – said he’s been in a relentless tug of war with hypertension since his 28th birthday, and even after four decades of tending to this health challenge, it hasn’t cast a shadow on his illustrious career.

With an outlook as bright as a sunny day, he revealed that he was graced with parents who not only shared this condition but also achieved the remarkable milestone of living well past a century, proving that age is just a number, even when faced with this ailment.
