Life, they say, begins at 40. And some Nigerian actors have proved that they can still make a statement despite their age. A quick check on the best of the lot
Richard Mofe-Damijo: Popularly known as RMD, Mofe-Damijo at over 40, still makes many ladies’ hearts turn to jelly when they behold him. With his trademark smile, he still carries so much panache and finesse.
Married to ex-TV presenter and now Globacom big gal, Jumobi, RMD, who now spots a grey beard, still turns heads.
Of course, he upped the ante when he became the Commissioner for Tourism in Delta State under Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan, but work pressure has not taken away style from him.
Bob-Manuel Udokwu: Happily married with kids, he used to be called the Denzel Washington of Nollywood. This head-turner, who has been in the industry for a long time, knows what looking good means.
Lucky not to be associated with any scandal since he became part of Nollywood, Udokwu gained more prominence when he became the anchorman of Gulder Ultimate Search reality show.
Ernest Obi: Ace producer and actor, Ernest Obi, is still deft at his age. Now happily married, Obi didn’t allow the scandal from his first marriage to dampen his spirit or remove him from the spotlight.
With his ‘bad boy’ image, Obi is always decked in denims and T-shirts that also give him the looks that make many ladies swoon.
Fred Amata: Fine boy Fred Amata is still a hunk and he knows it. His days at ‘Checkmate’ earned him so much popularity and till date, the bloke looks suave.
Once married to talk show producer, Agatha, Fred had one or two things to do with actress, Ibinabo Fibresima, who eventually had a baby for him.
The actor has not bothered to respond to the latest gossip going on about his being in a bitter quarrel with Yemi Blaq over a woman. It seems the bloke is not perturbed in any way since he is used to being talked about.
In all, Fred is still a hot guy, who many ladies would give an arm to have as their own.
Femi Branch: Femi Branch makes ladies swoon in movies. In real life, he does the same.
Happily married and known for playing ‘bad boy’ roles in movies, Branch had said in an interview that he was going into the ministry as a full time pastor.
Branch, in the interview, had said, “It’s really a very big deal for me, let me not lie. At a point in time, I was contemplating some things, but then I realised that it’s not about you or what you think about me. It’s about God and I know when most people see me on the pulpit, they may think I’m acting. That’s why when the church starts, I will only put the name of the church so that when people come, they will see that it’s this guy that is there. I know that God taking me through my acting career is all part of a bigger plan. I know that people will have different opinions, but the bottom line is whether he is a pastor, an actor, a producer, he remains Femi Branch.”
Funsho Adeolu: Funsho Adeolu is a force to be reckoned with in the Yoruba movie industry. The guy interprets his roles very well and it has endeared him to many fans.
Away from his acting skills, the dude is still hot – even at 43. However, he has not used his looks and celebrity status to break ladies hearts.
Happily married, Adeolu has not yet been dented with any scandal though he has charmed a lot of ladies with his great looks.
No matter his age, Adeolu, who is also a singer, is still young at heart and he doesn’t fail to have a good time whenever he feels like doing so. He has featured in many Yoruba movies.
Emeka Ossai: An actor, Emeka Ossai used to be a top model. No wonder he knows about the business of looking good. He eventually rose to become one of the respected Nollywood hunks.
Ossai eventually got married again to a pretty babe eight years after his first wife, an actress, Jennifer Okere, passed on.
The bloke catches his fun at will. His age notwithstanding, the chap is still rocking and might continue to do so for so many years to come.
Chidi Mokeme: The list will definitely be incomplete without Chidi ‘GQ’ Mokeme. The dude rocks and he knows it.
Busybodies allege Mokeme loves dating elderly women, but such gossip has not deterred many young ladies from fawning around him.
Rumoured to be getting married many times, Mokeme is still one of the eligible bachelors in Nollywood.
Though he has a son, Mokeme is not married to the mother of his child.
He has been romantically linked with a lot of females, including a babe who works with a telecommunications company.
