Veteran singer, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has disclosed that he doesn\u2019t drink alcohol.<\/p>\n

He said he has also been trying to quit smoking but often found himself struggling with the addiction.<\/p>\n

Speaking in a recent interview with actress Iyabo Ojo, the maverick singer admitted that he takes a bit of alcoholic wine but maintained that he is not a regular drinker.<\/p>\n

The 73-year-old said his fitness is due to genetic factors and his lifestyle, noting that his parents and grandparents lived long.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI was lucky enough to form the habit of always going to the gym and looking after my physical wellbeing. You know, people in the [entertainment] industry a lot of things are speculated about them. But I don\u2019t drink. I\u2019ve never drank [alcohol] in my life. Except you add small wine to it sometimes when I feel like socialising [laughs].<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m trying to give up my nicotine [smoking] habit. Because it\u2019s really not good for me. The longest I\u2019ve abstained I think was about seven years. I\u2019ve been having battles with it back and forth. I quit sometimes, I come back.\u201d<\/p>\n
