No matter what you do, do not raise your voice at your parents and don't disrespect them. At the end of the day, they're still your parents and you came into this world through them. Well done Charly Boy! This should be a lesson for others!
His father the great Barr Chukwudifu Oputa SAN,JSC was a truly great man. One of the finest lawyer and Supreme court Justice Nigeria has ever seen. May his soul RIP

MY FIRST TIME ON YOUR PLATFORM 😊JAMAICA 🇯🇲 IN THE HOUSE, THIS WAS A VERY GOOD AND INSIGHTFUL STORY 👌 BLESSINGS AND LOVE TO YOU ALL MY FAVORITE PEOPLE ON EARTH AFRICAN ❤❤❤
I really admire you Area Fada. I love your strength to move against all odds. I'm at odds with my teenage daughter sometimes but I really really envy her ability to stake her claim in this world. I'm actually really proud of how strong she is to stand up for herself.
Yes, please do what the above commenter stated in his reply to your comment. Because she needs the approval and acknowlegement of her parents to succeed the more in this cruel word.
Its always interesting listening to uncle Charles speak. As you looked after your parents in their vulnerable moments, may your children also do the same for you, sir. 😇🙏
This is beautiful, i am forever grateful to Sir Charlie boy for the Charlie boy show. His style and Bold influence...God bless you our legendary rock star...and much love to Tina of blessed memory.
Exactly the post I’m looking for…. Success get plenty Family You think say mad man wey Dey road no get family, even en mama sef no go gree identify with am….. The Moral of the whole story is SUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE
I remember Charly Boy's house at Gbagada. I LOVED looking at it as we drove past to visit family around there. Nobody can make me hate him. Who remembers when all the okada riders rode with him for an issue some time ago? Area Papa!! He has ALWAYS been a catalyst. Can you imagine Justice Oputa not introducing himself as he then was, but, as Charly Boy's father instead? Massive W for him. Keep going!💪🏽 If you're reading this Charly Boy here are your flowers while you're still alive to see and enjoy them sir.
But did you notice that there were so many I don't know in his answers. Who ended up been broke? Who ended in the village? He chose to be abnormal and see him now. Christ is the way. There is a way that seems right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death” is a verse from the Bible, Proverbs 14:12.
Yes. Charlie Boy's house at Gbagada has the Inscription : 'Beware of Pins' instead of the popular 'Beware of Dogs'. I kept reading and wondering at that inscription each time I passed the place. Charlie Boy is a unique character if you ask me.
Thank you Chude for being open and transparent in your style of interviews. I love that you don't judge your there to interview and let people tell their stories. I think you for that.
@Unique2023- .......🤣🤣.....so true!.... in fact, he was once quoted as asking an important dignitary back then , "CAN I SHOW YOU MY PRIVATE PART?" while referring to the book.
🌍🇧🇧🙏🏾Blessings From BEAUTIFUL ISLAND OF BARBADOS 🇧🇧 🙏🏾 Blessings Charly. You Are BLESS FOR LIFE🙏🏾WHY! You Made PEACE With Your Parents And Made Them COMFORTABLE In They Last Day On Earth❤🙏🏾🤗 Stay Bless 🙏🏾 Stay Safe 🙏🏾
Woooow ❤❤❤ i love that statement ...that he took care of his parents (his little babies 🤱) untill they went back home woooooow and he forgot about the whipping hatred and disagreement ... and they bonded with Love till the last day ❤❤❤❤!
Charley Boy was a hero of sorts to me. His presence in my Lagos then was a shot in the arm for me. His music was a mixture of quality and finery unlike any other back then. His fashion style was a beautiful revolution to me. The mystery that courted him especially in a conservative time in Nigeria at the time, piqued my interest. I was in the fashion world back then and my perspectives blended with his. I wasn't aware of his struggles until watching this interview. This man is an outlier and I respect his presence of Self, his ability to speak his truth and the way he lives unapologetically. I hail his gift to his generation and the next.
Rebellous kids are actually trying to free themselves from micromanagement of their parents and find their own path in life. That is personal fulfilment, not fulfilling another person's dreams.
4:13 men ooooo they will “friend you” whilst you are giving your “ last penny “, las las they will marry someone else …. always remember to nourish yourself ladies !
He was born in early 1960.I was present when her mother bought him home in swaddling clothing at Oputa residence at Gborokiri area PORTHARCOURT. My uncle was the family washerman and came deliver ironed clothes early morning. Elders of Nzimiros or Oputas confirm! Shalom.
well, nice podcast Chude. However, children and adults alike must realize that whatsoever you sow, so also shall you reap. Parenting is a very tough job. many times you must exhibit tough love towards a child for that child to become responsible in life, but on the flip side as well, as a child when you over trouble your parents, your own children will trouble you in the future! its called law of sowing and reaping. Some of us who have very stubborn children, its because somewhere in the distant past the parent was as stubborn if not worse.
Gay or any gender transformation were tolerated in many African countries becore the 90s. Our societies were very tolerant. Now, hecause of West, we have lost many things that used to make us special.
People he done teach gay re commenting ... He might not be gay but he is misleading the society .. to accept what he is not and might seem morally wrong..
This guy and drug kinpin, Bola thief Tinubu, na mate, but see how this guy take dey young and spoke fluently, unlike one man who called himself president, talking as if he is on high drug, yes he takes, he is an addict and i have my proof with pictures of him sneefing, i come in peace
Obama greyed after 8 years shouldering d responsibility of USA. BRF aged after 8 years in FGN bearing d burden of Nigerian roads. BAT successfully piloted Lagos state under a hostile FGN. He has forged many incredible political mergers, he has been on nationwide campaign trails for years. CB has piloted only his affairs. He's an armchair political activist. Your comparison is unfair. Affairs of state wears people out. Take a look at Cameron, Blair, Bush before and after pics. Uneasy lies d head that wears d crown.
His father was more than just a legal scholar. Justice Chukwudifu Oputa was the Law in every sense of the word! 😅 He was an eminent jurist, an upright Justice of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, whose judgments shaped the Nigerian Legal System tremendously.
Generation differs from generation. My prayer for my son is to be the best of what God wants him too. Africans are far too rooted in customs and traditions that dosent serve upcoming generations anymore.
There's no better feeling than living with any of your parents in your house and looking after them in their last days. God bless.
🌼
I love this man, he’s free…. He doesn’t follow the rules, he makes the rules 😍❤️❤️❤️
Its not good to judge people. Thats the lesson i learnt from this whole Charlie Boy and his father's stories i heard from when i was a child.
He talks so calmly 🫶🏽🤗❤️🔥
It's hard to hate him
Exactly!
Wisdom
Charlie is soft spoken and it’s beautiful.
No matter what you do, do not raise your voice at your parents and don't disrespect them. At the end of the day, they're still your parents and you came into this world through them.
Well done Charly Boy! This should be a lesson for others!

Haaa😮, that's crazy. As a law student, it is really shocking.
@@calinwa16just curious, why is that crazy?
His father was never a SAN in his lifetime. But you got it right when you said that he was a lawyer, and Justice of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
@@2honey696 are you sure that he was never a SAN? how then was he that recognized in Nigeria tat much, without him being a SAN. If justice chukwudifo Oputa was never a SAN, then it only means that bring a SAN is worthless
@@casmirifeanyi7788 not all attain Senior Advocate Position.. that is not a requirment to be Judge
Sometimes, the child parents feel is the worst ends up being the one that would take care of them at old age...same thing happened to me.

“I just love being myself” -Charly Boy
I really admire you Area Fada. I love your strength to move against all odds. I'm at odds with my teenage daughter sometimes but I really really envy her ability to stake her claim in this world. I'm actually really proud of how strong she is to stand up for herself.
I hope you texted that to her and let her know❤

Beautiful soul. Wonderful interview. His battle is the kind faced by many creatives in our society.
Yea indeed
Everybody has different personalities and we need to respect it. Thanks for sharing Area Father. 🙏
Thank you!
Indeed
Its always interesting listening to uncle Charles speak. As you looked after your parents in their vulnerable moments, may your children also do the same for you, sir. 😇🙏
It was really an interesting story. Good to know that he flipped around and he also took care of his parents in their old age. Weldone sir
This is beautiful, i am forever grateful to Sir Charlie boy for the Charlie boy show. His style and Bold influence...God bless you our legendary rock star...and much love to Tina of blessed memory.
Such a beautiful story… I love how he ended it “I am Charlie Boyy father’s”.
Exactly the post I’m looking for…. Success get plenty Family
You think say mad man wey Dey road no get family, even en mama sef no go gree identify with am…..
The Moral of the whole story is
SUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE
Any Successful Man, there's a good woman behind it❤❤

Yes. Charlie Boy's house at Gbagada has the Inscription : 'Beware of Pins' instead of the popular 'Beware of Dogs'. I kept reading and wondering at that inscription each time I passed the place. Charlie Boy is a unique character if you ask me.
I didn't hear when his mum passed. Chukwudifu Oputa God bless his soul. Gentleman and a pure Catholic.
Thank you Chude for being open and transparent in your style of interviews. I love that you don't judge your there to interview and let people tell their stories. I think you for that.
Charly Boy isi okpukpu. Dede watching from Barcelona Spain
I remember when uncle Charly gave a signed copy of his book "My private part" to my mother, I ended up reading it more than 10x.💕
Yeah....😂😂
That title was quite controversial when it was released in the late 2000s.
@@tdad8683 😂😂 and the front book picture cover.
@Unique2023- .......🤣🤣.....so true!.... in fact, he was once quoted as asking an important dignitary back then , "CAN I SHOW YOU MY PRIVATE PART?" while referring to the book.
This is a wonderful insight. I loved Justice J.C Oputa, and I will always love Charly Boy
🌍🇧🇧🙏🏾Blessings From BEAUTIFUL ISLAND OF BARBADOS 🇧🇧 🙏🏾
Blessings Charly. You Are BLESS FOR LIFE🙏🏾WHY! You Made PEACE With Your Parents And Made Them COMFORTABLE In They Last Day On Earth❤🙏🏾🤗 Stay Bless 🙏🏾 Stay Safe 🙏🏾
There is no other Charly Boy on the planet...
People like him like a comet come once in a blue moon!!!
Sociology students can use this interview as a case study. Trust me a lot of deductions and lessons learnt will come out of it. Thanks Crude!
Oh! I remember the day Tyna Onwudiwe passed like it was yesterday. Her passing was one that hit me even when I was young cause I loved her style.
Charley, thanks for sharing.... Chude, more of this.... Well done
Wow, beautiful stories. God rest mama Tyna's soul. An amazing songstress she was. To our area Fada, De'eme sir.
So so inspiring to watch. Papa teaching us parenting without haven it as a topic. Thanks for this Chude ❤!
Woooow ❤❤❤ i love that statement ...that he took care of his parents (his little babies 🤱) untill they went back home woooooow and he forgot about the whipping hatred and disagreement ... and they bonded with Love till the last day ❤❤❤❤!
I love how the story ended with his father. A father son relationship can be very tumultuous.
He has a soothing voice
Time is always revealer… if only most of us learn to appreciate things earlier enough rather than, waiting for later.
Thanks for sharing your story the legendary Charlie Boy. I grew up in Anthony Village and used to come to Gbagada area just to see your house 🥰
Same here. With the bike on the veranda
me too 🎉😁
Me too oooo
This man go soon reach 80, and he doesn't apoear old.
How does he do it?
Wow
No meat has entered his stomach for over 40 years now and still counting
can you sleep in a coffin?
@@JustinClark-r4zDoes he do that?
If you turn vegetarian and drop all types of meat from your diet,you'll look way younger as you age
I also asked the question just 4 minutea ago in the comment section

Nah, Papa. Na your father disowned you no be you disappointed them. But all the same i love it that you chased your dreams.
It Can Go Both Ways. Don't Change His Words.
Ok you where there
@AfricanUSA-th9ov no it doesn't. I expected him to say it how it is.. they're not the same thing.
@SarahAdamu-k7z perhaps, you're the only one who doesn't know the story. FYI, we come from the same place in Imo state.
Do you know his story more than him?
So unique AFRICAN I love this man❤❤❤
Is he actually 74yrs ? He looks so young as in 50
Yes
He is he takes care of himself and do another.my dear is good to age gracefully
LIFE. 74 years old man still looking fresh ❤
Charlie is well spoken
Beautiful story❤❤
Whao !
Dis is so interesting, inspiring, educating, lovely & funny Baba Charlie ❤️🥰😘😍🎉

I wish him Jesus.

4:13 men ooooo they will “friend you” whilst you are giving your “ last penny “, las las they will marry someone else …. always remember to nourish yourself ladies !
This man made me to love leather Boots....Much❤❤❤❤❤❤ Sir
So his youth stems from the number of years he has addressed himself as CHARLIE BOY. There is power in the meaning of a name.
Charley boy & Derenle are both proof that when you do you the world will adjust
Everybody will be okay in the end
He was born in early 1960.I was present when her mother bought him home in swaddling clothing at Oputa residence at Gborokiri area PORTHARCOURT. My uncle was the family washerman and came deliver ironed clothes early morning. Elders of Nzimiros or Oputas confirm! Shalom.
Soft spoken eloquent area father 🎉
I love this guy
Half of the interview was about Tina. That's the love of his life there
If you know Tyna Onwudinwe, you should have 2kids by now!!! Tyna was a great musician who left early 😢
Waoh 😊!!!
Great message for parents...😊
Wow tyna was indeed a keeper
Area Fada! A renegade indeed!
He's look is similar to Boy George 🎉🎉
14:45 the rejected stone become d corner stone !!
One love sir❤
What a lovely story
I love Charly Boy !
He Got That Look From Boy George 👦 In The 70s,80s Gays Were Still Inside The CLOSET IN USA 🇺🇸 Maybe Bisexuality Tendency.
Where are Charlie brothers and sisters? I have not seen any
I love his shoes 😊
Soft spoken..... Is it Ley-gos or Laa-gos...
Charly boy you are a legend!!!
Charly Boy my guy🎉😊
This man !!!😂❤

Both of them look like switch hitters. Smdh….in Nigeria of all places. Smdh😢😢
I usually hear parents disowning their kids, not the other way round..😂😂😂
Very funny the way he said it😂😂😂😂😂😂
I hope tjose who wrong life can learn from this. That it was all a dangerous error
Respect
Back then she was called African oyibo she was very beautiful
Is Omah Lay referring to him when he says “I just want Charlie boy dey make Charlie boy dey”? I never knew what he meant by that.
People he done teach gay re commenting ... He might not be gay but he is misleading the society .. to accept what he is not and might seem morally wrong..
Wow! I thought it was the other way round. Hmm!
Interviewer is good. He let the guest talk. Charlie Boy has gay mannerisms, though. I guess, he acquired it from hanging around trans groups.
Are you saying he's suspect?🤔😂
❤
Makeup must not be only fir women,men can wear makeup too and still be men ,nobody's stopping them..
Charly BOY, still looking. Good Guys
