A rare video from 42 years ago captures a young and vibrant Peju Ogunmola at just 20 years old, already showing the depth and brilliance that would later show her as one of Nigeria’s respected veteran actresses. This moment on screen came years before her early marriage in the early 1990s to Sunday Omobolanle, popularly known as Aluwe, a union that would later become one of the most recognized families in the Yoruba film industry.
In the same production, we see a young Adebayo Salami, popularly known as Oga Bello, still in his early years, long before he became a household name and a pillar in Nollywood. The film itself, Iyani Wura (Golden Mother), was produced in 1984 by the legendary Adeyemi Afolayan, widely known as Ade Love, one of the foundational figures of modern Yoruba cinema.
What makes this moment even more special is not only the history captured on screen, but the legacy that followed. These were actors, filmmakers, builders of a movement, a culture, and an industry that would outlive them.
Today, their children have carried that torch forward with remarkable success. From the Ade Love lineage, we have Kunle Afolayan, an internationally recognized filmmaker known for elevating Nigerian cinema with works that blend culture, history, and global storytelling.
Alongside him is Gabriel Afolayan, a multi-talented actor and musician who has carved his own strong identity in the industry, as well as Aremu Afolayan, continuing the family’s presence in film.
From Oga Bello’s legacy, the story continues through Femi Adebayo, one of the most successful Yoruba actors and producers of his generation, known for both traditional and contemporary storytelling, and Tope Adebayo Salami, a filmmaker and director who is steadily shaping modern Yoruba cinema behind the scenes.
