Nollywood star, Deyemi Okanlawon, has shared how his buddy, Pastor Jimmy Odukoya, has been a game-changer in his quest for fitness.
Speaking on the King of Talks podcast hosted by Teju Babyface, Okanlawon gave a peek into his approach to staying fit as an actor.
He confessed that his initial fitness goals were largely shaped by the physical demands of acting roles, but thanks to Pastor Odukoya, his outlook on fitness took a meaningful turn.
Looking back on his journey, Okanlawon emphasized the impact of his friend, now known as “Pastor Jimi Odukoya,” who had a passion for both fitness and acting long before taking up his role as a senior pastor.
“A year ago, I decided that I wanted to be ready and fit all the time. One of my best friends convinced me, you probably know him, and now I’m forced to add ‘pastor’ to his name,” Okanlawon shared.

He revealed that Pastor Jimi Odukoya’s dedication to the gym inspired him to strive for strength, fitness, and overall health.
Okanlawon clarified that his fitness journey was not about attracting attention, but rather about personal well-being.
Moreover, Okanlawon explained that his newfound fitness routine not only aligns with his personal goals, but also enhances his acting career.
“An actor is essentially his voice, emotions and body, and for me to be where I want to be all these things come together,” he said.
Previously, Okanlawon would intensify his workout regimen for specific roles, but now, he maintains a consistent routine that benefits his health and performances alike.
Beyond Boders notes that Okanlawon recently shared that his wife deliberately avoids following him on social media and refrains from watching his movies.
