Personal life

edit

Baba Fryo said in 2017 that he wished he married a woman who is also in the showbiz business.

He lamented that had he married a celebrity like himself, his career wouldn't have declined as it did because the wife would have raised his career as well. He, however said much hard work has brought him back up on his 'feet'.[5]
