However, for Peggy Ovire, the actor needed to simplify his use of the English language if he want her to understand him and he must stop ‘acting like a local boy’ now that he is older.
She posted a video slide of Frederick Leonard and wrote:
“Happy Birthday Freddie, I celebrate you, darling, you are destined for greatness, your light cannot be dimmed, you’re God’s favoured. In this journey called life, you are self disciplined, focused, and a hard worker. I’m so proud of the man you’ve become.
“But eh you know you’re getting old can you stop being Local in your doings? ( I don tire) . Also when you talk to me try talk simple English (I’m tired of searching for the meaning in the Dictionary). Maybe you should be a lecturer sef (I mean it oh).”
She went on to thank God for blessing Nigerians with Frederick Leonard, whose talent has provided entertainment in their households over the years.
She added, “Thank you for blessing our screen with your Talent, focusing on your career, always giving outstanding performances, living a life worth emulating, Odogwu, FILM LORD! Always willing to help every actor you’re on set with. Your heart is beautiful. I wish you many more blessed years my favorite Actor in the WORLD. Love you 😘🎉🍾 @freddieleonard.”
