Award-winning Nollywood director and actor Kunle Afolayan has penned a tribute to his late father Adeyemi Josiah Akano Afolayan.
Kunle Afolayan is known for helming remarkable films like The Figurine: Araromire (2009), Phone Swap (2012), October 1 (2014), and The CEO (2016), and is one of Nigeria’s most critically-acclaimed filmmakers.
The director shared a collage of himself and his father who died in 1996 on Monday, July 27, 2020, saying how he misses him and thanking him for marrying many wives as it led to him (Kunle Afolayan) being his son.
His words:
I miss you, Baba mi, but thank you for marrying many wives because I would not have been privileged to be called your Son.
I know I was finer so… don’t rub it in.
ADEYEMI JOSIAH AKANO AFOLAYAN (1940-1996).”
