Their horrible look and stigmatization has never been a hindrance to their progress in the industry.
The Osogbo born entertainers believed there is ability in deformity.
According to modernghana In 2011 in an interview,they spoke on issues revolving around their lives and career.
God created us. He created every one of us in unique ways.
We’ve stopped feeling sorry for ourselves. We don’t let what other people say bother us. We are aware that we are one-of-a-kind beings. That is why we are making a film based on our personal experiences.
The film’s title is Osuolale, after our father. It’s about our lives, how we were born, and how we came to be who we are today. I believe that after seeing the film, people will stop stigmatizing us. We were not born this way.
We want people to keep an eye out for the film. It will be released very soon.
Many people are unwilling to assist us. We would have been much bigger if they had been willing.
Look at Aki and Pawpaw,if people didn’t help them,they wouldn’t be as big as they are today.
Another pain is the fact that we are not financially strong.We love to move,we need more money to help ourselves and our family but quite unfortunate,there is no assistance from those we thought could assist us.
Our most embarrassing moment is when we were about to get married.People didn’t believe we would find a wife.
They didn’t believe we will even give birth to normal children.But we give thank to God for shutting their mouth with our testimonies.
Although Taiye wife is no longer with him.She left after their marriage.But he’s blessed with a baby girl.Her name is Blessing.
Asked why did she leave,what happened?
Taiye said I don’t know. She only told us she wanted to go and see her family. Her family also contributed to it. We paid her bride price and did every other thing but her family didn’t send her back when she went to them.
We’ve never for once regretted the way God created us,there is no cause for regret. Many are better than us and are not alive today. We thank God,at least we are still alive.
