it’s God’s design. I never thought of letting any of my children take after me. The education you are talking about, I am very passionate about education.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get the support from my parents because of their level but I had it in mind that all my children must be educated even if it’s attainment of at least to get the first degree.
By the time I met myself as a polygamist, I’ve had it in mind that I don’t want to leave any properties for my children. I need just two houses; one in Lagos and one in my hometown.
If you meet any money in my account, share it. I’m passionate about education.
How were you able to bring them to the industry?
I didn’t bring or force them to the industry, they grew their passion towards it on their own terms, when I discovered that Femi and some of his younger siblings showed interest in the film industry, I did not scold rather supported them. For instance, whenever I’m going for rehearsals and they want to follow me and I will say no, except you have good result. That made them work hard to get good results in school and here we are. I’m very happy and overwhelmed.
If I knew he (Femi) will be a filmmaker, I will not spend much money on school, I would ask him to go and read Filmmaking or Theatre Arts.
