How God Delivered Me From Seductive Women In 2016 – Comic Actor Saka
Like most other Nigerian entertainers
who survived 2016 without getting their fingers burnt in one way or
another, popular comic actor and MTN ambassador, Hafeez Oyetoro, aka
Saka, has every reason to be grateful to God.
Oyetoro said, in an interview with PUNCH Newspaper, that his biggest triumph in the past year was his ability
to overcome temptation from some of his numerous female admirers.
“If you are a celebrity, women will
always come to you. Most of the time, their intention is to seduce you.
Well, in 2016, some of them tried to seduce me and to make me do certain
things that I had sworn never to do when I got married. But, I thank
God that I was able to resist them. It was not by my power; God gave me
the grace to resist them,” he said.
The actor almost swore that he had never
had an extra-marital affair since he got married. “Why should I? My
wife is young and very pretty. Besides, it is not in my character to be
chasing women around,” he said.
Asked if he has finally settled for a
full-time career in film acting, Oyetoro, who is probably somewhere in
Victoria Island right now, taking part in the shooting of a new Yoruba
movie by a son of the legendary Baba Omilani of the Alarinjo Travelling
Theatre fame, said, ‘I am always in the movies, although I still teach
in Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education, Ijanikin, Lagos.
Also, aware that many of his colleagues
and fans wonder how he has managed to combine teaching with acting, he
explained, “Most producers consider my position as a lecturer in a
tertiary institution before giving me a role to play in a movie. Then
they work round my schedule.
“The fact that I teach theatre arts,
which involves a lot of practical work, also gives me an advantage. I
practise what I teach and I am not exactly an extrovert. I am so busy
that I don’t have a social life any longer.”
Indeed, keeping Oyetoro off the screen
is like denying him something that is vital to his existence. The actor
has kept his career alive by appearing in two movies that made waves
between 2015 and 2016. He has appeared in Taxi Driver aka Oko Ashewo alongside Odunlade Adekola, Femi Jacobs and Ijeoma Agu. Also, he was on the cast of Wedding Party,
a film produced by Mo Abudu and directed by Kemi Adetiba, which also
parades some of the big names in the entertainment industry.
Evidently, just as the actor’s personal
profile has vastly improved over the past five years, his preferences
have also changed. “Nowadays I like to appear in major films. I have
learnt to be selective and I don’t want to be involved in just any movie
anymore,” he told our correspondent.
Indeed, Oyetoro has every reason to feel
on top of the world. Telecommunications giants, MTN Nigeria, have just
renewed his advertising contract with them and his acting career is
currently experiencing an unprecedented boost. With this development, no
doubt, it will not be out of place to conclude that his star is on the
ascendancy.
However, for the artiste, whose juicy
endorsement deal with MTN Nigeria was widely celebrated a few years ago,
success and fame have come with some sacrifices. One of them, he
complained to our correspondent, is his ‘loss of freedom’.
“Suddenly I can no longer go anywhere
without people rushing to greet and hug me. I used to go to the market
to do some shopping a few years ago. I can’t do that again because I
don’t want to be mobbed by admirers. I don’t feel free to mix with the
crowd anymore,” he said.
Earlier in 2015, Oyetoro had complained
about unknown cyber criminals who created 25 fake Facebook accounts in
his name and were using them to strip unsuspecting members of the public
of various sums of money.

Nigerian Trafficking Victim Narrates How She Was Forced To Have Sex With Up To Ten Men A Day
A Nigerian woman who was trafficked into Ireland and forced into
prostitution narrated to the court how she was made to was have sex
with up to ten men a day for no payment.
She disclosed this in Dublin court on Tuesday, January 17th, during the trial of Joy Imasogie, 40, (pictured above) an alleged trafficker.
The woman told a jury she underwent a "voodoo process" in Nigeria before coming to Ireland, during which she swore she would not report Imasogie.
The woman also alleged that while she was working as a prostitute, Imasogie’s husband, Kingsley, began “taking advantage” of her and having sex with her.
Imasogie of Chapleswood Crescent, Hollystown, Dublin 15, has pleaded not guilty to organising for the woman to enter the country illegally, to compelling or coercing the woman to be a prostitute and to controlling or directing the activities of prostitution for gain on dates between March 2006 and April 2008.
On her second day of evidence at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court the alleged victim said she lived in a flat in Phibsborough where she was visited by up to ten men a day. She said the visits usually came at night or at lunchtime.
She told Kerida Naidoo SC, prosecuting, that Imasogie and another woman made the arrangements and that she would receive a phone call when a man was on the way. She said the prostitution service was advertised on a website run by a woman in England.
Imasogie allegedly told her the price was €150 for half an hour and €250 for an hour. The complainant said the accused told her men might want anal sex as an “additional service” but she refused to do this.
She said that she might receive €2,000 a day from the men. Of that Imasogie would allegedly take half for arranging the men to come and half to pay off a €50,000 “debt” she said the woman owed her for bringing her to Ireland.
The alleged victim said she was left with no money at the end of the day and that she received no allowance. She said she had to demand money from the accused for personal items and that Imasogie would sometimes bring her food.
The woman said Imasogie gave her a false passport to show to gardaí if they called at the door. One day gardaí called but didn’t believe the passport was genuine. The alleged victim said she went upstairs and jumped out the window to escape, breaking her leg in the process.
She said she was in a cast for two months and during that time she was told by the accused to “answer the phones and direct people”.
She returned to prostitution after the leg healed, she said. Sometimes the work involved travelling down the country for “overnight” visits. She said the accused or her husband Kingsley would drive her to there.
She alleged that after she had been in Ireland for about a year, Kingsley started to take advantage of her and have sex with her.
The woman said that after some time she thought she had worked off about €40,000 of the €50,000 debt. When she asked Imasogie about this, the accused replied that she had lost the book she used to keep track of this and that she believed the woman had paid off only €15,000 or €20,000.
The alleged victim said in 2008 she left Imasogie and refused to return. She said she didn’t want to be a prostitute anymore and refused to have any further contact with the accused.
The trial continues before Judge Patricia Ryan and a jury. Will keep you updated...
