‘I’m 40, Take It Or Leave It’ — Bidemi Kosoko Blasts Critics Over Age Controversy

 

Nollywood actress Bidemi Kosoko has lashed out at social media users questioning her age, insisting that she is 40 and warning critics to stop dragging her father and husband into the controversy.

 The actress said she decided to address the issue publicly because of repeated insults and claims that her family members had helped her conceal her real age.

In a video on Instagram, Kosoko expressed frustration over the comments, questioning why people were so concerned about her age.

“On a normal day I won’t be bothered but it is getting too much, you just keep

insulting me,” she said.

She also dismissed comparisons involving actress Shola, whom some critics reportedly accused of lying about her age, asking whether Shola looked like a baby.

Kosoko explained that because she relates freely with people regardless of their age or social status, some people wrongly assume they are her age mates.

She added that her youthful appearance was a gift from God.

The actress further revealed that she used to reduce her age but stopped after her father began publicly stating it during her birthday celebrations.

“If you don’t want to accept that I’m 40, fine, I’m okay with it,” she said.
