Veteran actress, Patience Ozokwo, popularly known as Mama G, has said that she’s not afraid to look old and be old.
The Nollywood star took to her verified Instagram page on Saturday to share a picture of herself, stating that she counts her old age as a blessing.
According to Ozokwo, she gets remarks about her old age but she’s not concerned about people’s validation.
The 63-year-old actress wrote, “When did old age stop being a blessing? People do all manner of stuff to cover up aging – good for them!
“I own my age and experience with my full chest and count it an enormous blessing. Comments like ‘she now looks so old’, ‘she don old suddenly’, ‘she don old finish’, ‘Ahaa Mama what happened’, make me smile.
“Aging is not unattractive or undesirable. Life is fleeting. Enjoy the years you’ve been blessed with fully. I am not afraid to look/be old.
“I am not worried about being in any exclusive league or being validated by people’s opinion. Respect the elderly.”
