NOLLYWOOD’s celebrated filmmaker Kunle Afolayan has penned a tribute to his late father, Adeyemi Josiah Akano Afolayan, who passed on in 1996.
The 47-year-old veteran, in a post on the microblogging app, shared a photo collage with his father.
He noted that he misses him and appreciated him for being a polygamist while he said many of his father’s wives accorded him the privilege to be called his son.
“I miss you, Baba mi (my father), but thank you for marrying many wives because I would not have been privileged to be called your son”, Afolayan wrote.
“I know (he) was finer so…don’t rub it in. ADEYEMI JOSIAH AKANO AFOLAYAN (1940-1996).”
