“Omo Eko ni mi,” “Omo Yoruba ni mi, ma fi mi se iyaje” he would say to confuse Yoruba’s who try to take advantage of him. He is fortunate to speak pidgin, Ijaw, and Urhobo fluently with unpolished English, although he wishes he could speak English better, especially when he wants to impress Chi-Chi. He would always switch to Urhobo whenever he was on an important call with any member of his family. This act gets Wale upset because Ovie always understands what he says on the phone, so he would have to find where to hide to take calls and speak in very low tones. He is always in conflict with Wale, and the constant fight between the duo always looks like there is an unresolved issue between the both of them. Despite the incessant fights, Ovie still finds ways of making the house lively and bearable for Wale.

As an aspiring music artist, he is always seeking opportunities to showcase his talents, and this makes him friendlier with people as he keeps in mind that nobody knows tomorrow and help can come from anyone at all. Sometimes, he keeps to himself, and it makes Wale concerned because Ovie is a loudmouth and a chatterbox, always looking for someone to say something to. The best moment of each day is when he talks to Chi-Chi for long hours, an activity that provokes Wale.
