25 Nigerian celebrities you didn’t realize are the same age

Age is nothing but a number. That statement has never been truer than in today’s article. In our heads most, if not all of us, have an idea of what a certain age looks like or should look like. The images that come to mind when I say ages like 22, 46, and 33 are all wildly different.

Yet sometimes you come across people like the ones in today’s list who are all of the same age but so radically different. I find this so interesting and when I started finding more and more examples of these, I just knew I had to compile them into a list and share them with you.
