Rotimi has been inspired by his Tanzanian partner Vanessa Mdee to lead a Christ-centered life and has first started by abstaining from alcohol.

The father of two expressed his desire to align his lifestyle more closely with his spiritual beliefs, citing a desire to avoid displeasing God.

“In one of my resolutions for 2024, I am cutting off liquor, among many other things. I am making a vow to God, and I have also committed to reading the Bible every day. I feel like God has spared me on numerous occasions,” Rotimi shared.

The Hollywood actor additonally announced his intention to reduce his presence on social media, opting for a more mindful approach to his online activity.

Rotimi’s decision comes two months after Vanessa Mdee opened up about her decision to become a teetotaler.

The mother of two in December 2023 said that a spiritual awakening played a crucial role in her decision to quit drinking.

“As I got close to God, the Holy Spirit convicted me to stop drinking, and after a very personal traumatic experience, I decided to quit drinking forever,” Vanessa Mdee spoke candidly on TikTok.

Mdee disclosed that stress and the toll of the music industry were the driving forces behind her past struggles with alcoholism.
