Still Appealing to Ladies at 55 has Been The Grace of God…RMD

Nollywood actor, Richard Mofe Damijo, has emerged as one of many ex-politicians who has been able to successfully leave office and be able to maintain relevance and closeness with his fans.

Since leaving the Nigerian political sector, he has been gracing various movie locations and that has been bringing him joy and not just that, he has also won many hearts with his good looks and fashion sense.

He has received many accolades but many don’t know how he has been able to manage his way through into the hearts of many and he has been given various descriptions and names by fans due to how he has carried himself coupled with his humility especially in public.

The actor having seen the way he has been described with various appealing names, has come out to reveal that not many would have been able to stay away from the entertainment industry for eight years and come back to remain relevant but his case has been God.

He admitted that coming back to the industry at age 55, was not easy for him because he was scared and filled with various thoughts but he was able to overcome because he presented everything to God.

"Let's take some time to revisit the "you're too old to go for your dreams" myth. Yea, it's a myth and if anyone tries to convince you otherwise, tell them to take a good look at me. I left the scene (my dreams) for eight years...8 years in the entertainment industry is a life time; trust me, so I call it eight long years of being away from my dreams.

“Contrary to what a lot of you think and/or believe, when it was time for me to return to my dreams, I was scared, worried, uncertain, had doubts, questions and fears but hey, I went to the rock that is higher than I (God). I went to Him in humility and sincerity. The thing you call swag, sex appeal, charisma...you name it, is the GLORY OF GOD. It is by His special grace that at 55 rapidly going on 56, I am blessed to live my dreams in health and sound mind. Today, I encourage you to conquer your fears, worries, doubts, uncertainties and go with God. Go for your dreams... it's never too late to start, never too late to try again. RMD Say So,” he stated.
