Yoruba actor, Ninalowo Bolanle has revealed why he converted from Islam to Christianity.

But the Bible delivered him from that trouble and since then, it has been his manual of life and he had been to church too.

He said:

“Although I have only gone to church once in my entire life, I read the bible a lot.

My name is Azeez; I was born into a staunch Muslim family. When I was troubled and frustrated, it was the bible that saved me, as my parents and family members couldn’t. So, I picked up the bible and it became my life manual.”

Reacting to the rate at which Nollywood veterans go suddenly sick and broke, Ninalowo said the actors are to blame and not the government.

He said “The blame should not be on Nollywood because it doesn’t have structure, it should be on the individual. You are not a victim of circumstances; you are a victim of the choices you made. A lot of them are carried away. They don’t have retirement plans.”
