Veteran Actor Jide Kosoko Says Fame Has Robbed Him Of His Privacy, Also Explains Why He Married More Than One Wife

Posted: 13 Apr 2021 05:00 AM PDT

Veteran Actor Jide Kosoko had a tell it all Interview Vanguard and opened up about his life as a polygamist and how being a public figure has robbed him of his privacy..

Must read Interview!

According to him "One film doesn't bring an actor to the limelight rather continuity does. When people see a particular face in good productions, they will note the face and as time goes on, they will reckon with the face. And that is how the fame comes. That is why I detest some of my colleagues who believe they can turn one actor to a celebrity overnight. A continuous process of quality film productions brought me to limelight".

On being a public figure, the actor said


"It has robbed me of my privacy. The moment you become a public figure, your life becomes other people's business. You have to pretend to be a gentleman even when you are a rascal. We learn to stage-manage our lives even when we are not on set. Many of us have learnt to live a fake life to suit and keep our fans, people who see us as role models".

Talking about his life as a polygamist, Jide disclosed it was God's design and not his intentions marrying more than one wife.

"I never envisaged being a polygamist though I am a product of one. My parents didn't support it either. My first wife was a business woman. I craved for somebody who was in the same field with me. In those days, the best advice you can get is from your better half and that was how the second woman came to be. Along the line, I lost the two to child births within 11 months interval. I had seven children at that time, so I didn't plan remarrying or having more children again.

But after much persuasion from my doctor and relatives, I decided to have a woman with the agreement of not having more children but a complete African woman will not agree to that. One thing led to the other and I got two women again. So being a polygamist is not intentional but God's design which I do not have a right over."
