‘I stopped going to gym because of heaven’ – Actor Williams Uchemba

‘I stopped going to gym because of heaven’ – Actor Williams Uchemba

Nigerian actor Williams Uchemba recently shared his decision to forgo public gym visits, citing a personal commitment to spiritual growth. He disclosed that the presence of scantily-clad women in such establishments had become a significant distraction, prompting him to establish a private gym within his home.

This move, he explained, was driven by his desire to maintain focus on his faith and values. In a public statement, Uchemba appealed to women frequenting gyms to consider dressing modestly, underscoring the potential impact on male gym attendees.

His plea resonated with many, sparking discussions on the importance of creating environments conducive to concentration and moral integrity. By prioritizing his spiritual journey and addressing societal challenges, Uchemba not only exemplifies personal conviction but also contributes to broader dialogues surrounding faith, virtue, and self-discipline within contemporary culture.

Speaking in a video message shared via his Instagram account, Uchemba said the indecent dressing of ladies at the gym was becoming “appalling” and he could no longer take it.

He said, “Ladies, should all the men stop coming to the gym? Because your indecent dressing is getting out of hand. It’s becoming appalling. I’m tired.

“Please, try and dress decently to the gym. There are men that are determined to make heaven, please don’t distract us. Everytime one comes to the gym, he is forced to see what he didn’t intend to see.

“You ladies have made up your mind to prevent Nigerian men from going to heaven but it won’t work because I’ve left the gym. I’ve set up a gym in my house because I cannot cope. I want to make heaven.”
