“As you can see, I’m very fine. I’m fit as a fiddle. Please, I am as fit as a fiddle. Those pictures flying around were taken from a film set. I don’t know why some people decided to cause some mischief with them.
“I will continue to do my work. I will continue to contribute to the growth of my industry and Nigeria. God bless you. I love you.”
