Nollywood veteran, Yemi Solade has stated that he would not put up with any teenager making fun of him on social media.
He said that he would not tolerate youngsters throwing jabs at him because he was an African man who holds a chieftaincy title. He maintained that if such should happen he would send the offender back to his parents.
The 62-year-old shared his thoughts during an interview with Saturday Beats.
He said: “I am human and I am on social media to express myself. I am not there to encourage anybody to throw jabs at me. I am an African man who is a chieftaincy title holder. I cannot allow an 18-year-old throw jabs at me. I will send that person back to his parents because this is Africa. Social media is not a leveller.” 
When he was asked about how he felt turning a year older he said: “I don’t have any special feeling clocking 62 years. It is the same old me. I am myself; hale and hearty, and I remain the actor that people know me to be. My craft has helped to sustain my name in the industry over the years. A lot of people are endeared to me because they appreciate good art.
“The quality of the training I got and my natural ability to deliver have helped me. Also, my physical attributes (have helped). When Nigerians see anything that looks flashy, they want to surround it. I am very focused. I have been an actor for 45 years, and that speaks volumes. It tells me I am doing well.”
