KOLA OYEWO EXPLAINS HIS BATTLE WITH HEALTH

Veteran Nollywood actor, Kola Oyewo, has stated that he became sexually inactive after his battle with prostate enlargement.

The 77-year-old actor revealed this while narrating how he survived the ailment.

In a now trending video on the internet, actor Kunle Afod and veteran actor, Peter Fatomilola visited Oyewo in his house to check on his well-being.

Speaking with his guests in Yoruba language, Oyewo explained that he first experienced difficulty passing out urine in July 2019, before being diagnosed with prostate enlargement.

During one of the surgeries to save his life, Oyewo disclosed that he had to give up his ability to engage in sexual intercourse.

Interacting with his visitors, he said “I had an enlarged prostate but I feel better now. In 2019, I first noticed that I would easily pee on myself or find it difficult to urinate.

“I went to the hospital and I was told that my prostate is getting larger and I will undergo surgery. They made an incision on my stomach and inserted what will help me pass out urine to prevent me from dying immediately.

“Also, I was advised to undergo another surgery that will stop my sexual performance. I told them to go ahead because I no longer need it as my children were grownups with their own kids.”

Kola Oyewo started acting after he joined the Oyin Adejobi theatre group in 1964. His first role was Adejare in ‘Orogun Adedigba’.

He is currently a performing arts lecturer at Elizade University Ilara-Mokin, in Ondo State.
