Nollywood actor and comedian Afeez Oyetoro a.k.a Saka, said when he started out he had no desire to chase women because he was a broke man.
Saka who was speaking in chat with Chude Jideonwo podcast said he had struggles at the start of his career, because at that time people looked at actors as unserious individuals.
He said: “I didn’t have confidence. It took me a long time to start toasting women. There was no money in acting then nobody recognised the actor. We were just doing it out of passion and they did not teach us how to make money from the theatre.
“I had no car so obviously when you call a girl to marry they will say no, there’s no future for this man in fact one of them told me why don’t you quit acting, you’re wasting your life leave this theatre go and do something relevant for your life.
“The one that i was actually supposed to marry you was demanding that i must have two cars before she get married to me then something told me Afeez, this is not your wife so i ran away from there. It was when i got to the school, I got married.”
