Veteran Nollywood actress Tola Oladokun has said that she dislikes kissing and has never kissed anyone in her life, not even her husband. She made the intimate revelation about her perception of kissing while speaking in an interview. Oladokun who has appeared in hundreds of movies explained that she is so averse to the idea of kissing that she would fight anyone who tries to kiss her.
She noted that since she would never allow her husband to kiss her, there is no chance she would agree to kiss someone else.
“I don’t kiss, oo. I haven’t been kissed in my life. If someone tries it with me, we will fight. I will tell him that I don’t do such. When even my husband can’t bring his lips to kiss me, and I agree, who will I now do such with?” she said.
Popular in mainstream Nollywood for her role as Mama Jenifa in actress Funke Akindele’s popular comedy series, Jenifa’s Diary, Oladokun had in a previous interview shared the story of how she transitioned from selling clothes to a screen sensation.
With gratitude to an unexpected meeting with some of Yoruba cinema’s most revered figures, the actress recounts her journey into Nollywood.
