Murphy Afolabi joined the Yoruba movie industry many years ago when he featured in Ifa Olokun as a kid actor under the tutelage of Dagunro.
Today, the Osun State-born actor, in this encounter with BAYO ADEOYE, talks about his career, challenges and aspirations.
Excerpts: How long have you been in the movie industry? I joined the movie industry 21 years ago. That’s a long time. So, how old were you then? I started quite early in life when I was in Osogbo, Osun State.
The late Duro Ladipo and Yemi Eleburunibon influenced my love for acting. Yemi Eleburunibon is my uncle and with his assistance, I appeared in some episodes of Ifa Olokun in Osogbo then. Also, when I was in the secondary school, I was known for my love for theatre as I always participated in many plays.
