I lost two kids over forty naira- Actor Adewale Adeyemo

Nollywood Actor, Prince Adewale Adeyemo, opens up on how he lost his two kids in 1988.

Adewale lost his kids while he was at a movie location.

In an Exclusive interview with newsman, Gbolahan Adetayo, the Osun born recalled what happened.

According to him;

“I went to a movie location in Lagos State, there was a man called Apereijangbon, we were at his movie set, then there was no public bus plying Meran road, no mobile phone also to communicate with me.

I was working and earning only 40 naira per day, I was living at Berliet Ilasa and before I could get home, alot has happened.

I got home around 6pm and I noticed the house was empty. I learnt that my wife was at Ijora with my mum and my sister who is now late.

So, I was forced to go and check on them, on getting to Ijora I discovered my daughter Taiwo was dead, the next day, I had to go back to the location to complete the job, so on getting to the location I spent five days extra again and when I returned home, the second child, Kehinde already bowed out.

At that juncture, my sister changed everything for me, fought with me bitterly because she doesn’t understand the kind of job I am into, she advised me angrily that I should look for another job rather than acting.

This was what influenced her to get me a watch night job which I refused to be part of.

Then, I moved to Apapa Wolf in Lagos to learn clearing and forwarding. With time, I abandoned the job again and returned to theater line fully before God opened doors for me.” He said
