Posted: 01 Mar 2020 12:31 AM PST

Handsome Nigerian singer, Korede Bello, who was born on February 29, has opened up about his feeling as he celebrates his birthday every leap year (once in four years).

In a recent interview with Punch, Korede Bello revealed what that has taught him."I must confess it does make me feel special. I don't have to feel like I'm getting older every year (laughs). It is truly special to anticipate something for four years. It teaches one a lot about patience and rewards.

All the birthdays I've had have been memorable because I had four years to plan for them," he said.

On the accusations of being a woman wrapper and his secret romance with Iyabo Ojo's daughter, Prisca, the 'Godwin' crooner said,

"People see me as a womanizer. I don't even know what that word mean anymore. I guess when one attracts a lot of female attention and love, they call one a womaniser.

"As for my rumoured relationship with Priscilla, she would be in a better position to respond to that (laughs)."

Speaking on wedding bells and his kind of 'wife material, Korede Bello says,

"Wedding bells are always sounding every Saturday. Perhaps, you have not been paying attention. I even try to put bells in my songs because my name is Bello. If you listen closely to the song, 'Sun mo Mi', you would hear wedding bells and hints of a potential wedding.

"As for the qualities I would like in my dream woman, the only quality that truly matters is a strong connection. A connection with God, herself and with me. Every other thing doesn't really matter. Besides, a dream woman will always be a dream. I want a real woman.
