Nollywood actor, Kola Oyewo, has recounted how his decision to embark on a prostate surgery made him lose the ability to make love to a woman.
He made this known while narrating how he survived his battle with prostate enlargement.
In a now-viral video on social media, actor, Kunle Afod and another veteran actor, Peter Fatomilola visited Oyewo in his house to check on his well-being.
Speaking with his colleagues in Yoruba language, the 77-year-old thespian explained that he first experienced difficulty passing out urine in July 2019, before being diagnosed with the ailment later.

He went on to disclose that he lost the ability to engage in sexual intercourse during one of the surgeries that saved his life.
Interacting with his visitors, Kola Oyewo said: “I had an enlarged prostate but I feel better now. In 2019, I first noticed that I would easily pee on myself or find it difficult to urinate.
“I went to the hospital and I was told that my prostate is getting larger and I will undergo surgery. They made an incision on my stomach and inserted what will help me pass out urine to prevent me from dying immediately.
“Also, I was advised to undergo another surgery that will stop my sexual performance. I told them to go ahead because I no longer need it as my children were grownups with their own kids.”
Kola Oyewo began acting in 1964 after joining the Oyin Adejobi theatre group and his first role was Adejare in the movie ‘Orogun Adedigba’.
He currently lectures in the Performing Arts Department of Elizade University Ilara-Mokin, Ondo State .
