In a recent chat, Nollywood actor Femi Adebayo
denies the rumoured rivalry war between himself and star
actor Odunlade Adekola.
Hear him:
“Odunlade is one of my very good friends. We don’t see
ourselves as rivals. Outside our profession, we see, we talk,
we relate, we rub minds; we even share ideas regarding how
to live our private lives. That automatically negates the word
rivalry you are talking about. We are not rivals, we are friends,
and we are colleagues. We do our things and our fans
appreciate us…
Odunlade is a very tall man and I am not tall, I think that’s
one of the very obvious differences between us. But we have a
lot in common. Odunlade is a very fantastic actor; I am a very
fantastic actor as well. We interpret our roles the way we feel
it should be interpreted. We share the same date of birth. We
are in the same industry. He is friendly, I’m friendly; he is
down to earth and I’m equally down to earth….
In terms of role interpretation, we think Odunlade gets the
upper hand. What do you think?
