Comedian, television host and author Teju Babyface has showered himself with prayers as he celebrates his birthday.
The 42-year-old shared a picture of himself in an Instagram post on Wednesday.
He began his prayers with a verse of the bible.
“’So teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts to wisdom’ It’s hard to believe that another 365 days have passed and as I stand with all appreciation to the Most High God on this birth day of mine.
“I pray that I learn to walk circumspectly and with wisdom, for the glory of the latter is far more greater than the former,” he wrote.
Teju announced the arrival of his birthday saying he is one of the people who celebrate on America’s inauguration day.
He said, “So it’s my birthday tomorrow! Yeah, I am one of those people who do inauguration day with the United States.”
Born Olateju Oyelakin, Teju in an exclusive interview with QedTV spoke on why he would have not celebrated his 40th birthday in 2019.
He said instead of calling a party he would have gone on a trip for prayers with his wife if he had remained childless.
“I’m going to be 40 now. Would I have invited you to a birthday party if I had been childless? There would be no party. I won’t even have told you people. My wife and I would have gone on a trip somewhere to petition and supplicate God to do it (give us children) this year,” he said.
Teju and his wife, Bolajoko, a former beauty queen got married in 2012.
They welcomed a set of twins, a boy and a girl in April 2018.
