Popularly known as Abija, the actor was a successful Yoruba actor until he was involved in an auto crash in 2007, while shooting the movie “Ibinu Abija.”
In a 2015 interview with The Nation, the actor said that his fame hadn’t translated into wealth.
“I am not rich; I don’t have a roof over my head, which is part of measuring one’s wealth in this part of the world; I don’t even have a land,” he told The Nation.
He added that the money realised from acting is just not much, or even as enough as their fans think.
