For some of us, going into the same career with our parents sounds like the worst idea. But what if you come from a famous acting family? Throughout the years, many yoruba actors have brought on their children to continue their legacy in the yoruba movie industry—and despite the overwhelming pressure these children are doing well and making their parents proud.
1. Adebayo Salami
Adebayo Salami, often known as Oga Bello, is one of the few living legends of Yourba cinema. Oga Bello has four children, Femi Adebayo, Sodiq Adebayo, Tope Adebayo, and Ridwan Adebayo, who are all successful in the Yoruba film industry.
Femi Adebayo
Adebayo Salami's most popular son is probably Femi Adebayo. He is an actor, a lawyer, and the owner of J-15 School of Performing Arts in Ibadan, Oyo State. Femi is married with a daughter and a set of twins whom he cherishes above everything else.
Sadiq Adebayo
Sadiq Adebayo is another son of Oga Bello who works in the film industry. He is an actor, but primarily a location manager. A location manager's job is to identify a site that visually represents the producer's concept. They work collaboratively with the producer, director, and set design department. Sodiq Adebayo is happily married.
Tope Adebayo
Tope Adebayo is a well-known movie director who has worked with a number of industry heavyweights.
Ridwan Adebayo
