Kemi Filani reported on May 10th that the talented actor and filmmaker had won the Best Lead Actor award and another award at the just-concluded Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards.
Taking to his Instagram page, Femi shared a video of the moment he presented his father with the award, and he and others prayed for him. In his caption, Femi stated that his father was the foundation of where he started. He expressed how humbled he was by the sweet gestures of his father and mother, as their sacrifices, prayers, and love made him who he is.
In March, Femi Adebayo, while celebrating Chioma’s birthday,spoke sweetly about working with her. He described Chioma’s talent as pure magic, her humour as infectious, and her energy as unmatched. He added that she brought so much warmth and charm to every role, and Seven Doors wouldn’t have been the same without her.
Seven Doors, which features the likes of Chioma Akpotha, Dele Odule, Wumi Toriola, Kolawole Ajeyemi, and many others, tells the story of a King – a delve into his lineage, his challenging reign as king, and his complex marital life with Amaka (portrayed by Chioma Chukwuka) and six additional wives.
Opening up on why he chose Chioma as the lead actress for his movie, Adebayo claimed it was a divine message as he noted how Chioma initially declined when he reached out to her, but he insisted.
Chioma, on her part, said the universe worked it out for them as she noted she wasn’t available for the role when he first reached out to her. The movie star said she later got hooked on the script and was connected to it, and God made it possible for her to be available for filming.
