Veteran actor, Jim Iyke has revealed the only person who prays and genuinely wants his children to succeed more than he did in life.
According to him, a father is the only person that can wish for such.
The actor made this known during a recent appearance on a podcast show where he shared his candid opinion about success in life.
According to Jim Iyke, only a father genuinely wants betterment for their children while removing other male figures like relatives, friends, and others.
“The only man on earth that wants to see you succeed more than him in this life is not your best friend, brother, relative; it is your father. The only man that is comfortable in this life, that prays it as a prayer is your father,” he said partly.
His statement was met with mixed feelings from some who agreed with the school of thought while others cited examples of fathers who failed the premises.
