Charles Oputa, a veteran Nigerian singer better known as Charly Boy, has taken to social media to count his blessings ahead of his 70th birthday.

In a post on his Instagram page, the controversial entertainer reflected on his life so far, examining how he has succeeded as an individual and a family man.

In a video accompanying the post on Thursday, Charly Boy revealed that he has so far fathered nine children — six from his previous marriages and three with Diane, his current wife.

“I have sixteen, not ten, not five, not fifteen but sixteen grandchildren and I believe God has blessed me and my prayer to ordinary Nigerians is that may God bless you,” he said in the video.
