Femi came into limelight many years ago as the founder of the Christ Chosen Vessel Dance Drama Ministry, which had his younger brother, Ayo (Woli Agba) as a member. One of the groups’ most famous works is Alfa Sule, with the catch-phrase, ‘O ti gan pa’.
However, while Woli Agba has become a successful social media content creator and filmmaker, not much has been heard about the elder Ajewole.
In a chat with Pastor Mrs. Funke Adejumo of the Agape Ministry, Woli Agba said the brother played a major role as he helped him to the glory of God.
Speaking about his relationship with his elder brother, the skit maker said he still has a relationship with Alfa Sule. Although the thought of many is that he left his brother.
He said: “I didn’t leave my brother. I don’t know maybe he just pushed me out to purpose.”
Woli Agba stated further that “Get out can mean get up or get there. Though I didn’t find it funny when he asked me to leave, not knowing the angel of the Lord was waiting to hold my hand. It was about the time I just got married…. It was a long story but it was so deep.”
In October last year, the former member of Alfa Sule group, Woli Agba denied reports of rift between him and his elder brother, Femi Ajewole who was the leader of the group and other members.
Reacting to the alleged beef, Ayobami said: “All I do started from when I was a member of Alfa Sule.
“We have absolutely no issues. We all just decided to try different things. We are still together though our schedules take us to different places at different times.”
During an interview with Friday Extravaganza, he disclosed they are still together and even producing films.
“People initially knew me as Alfa Sule back then. When I started uploading video skits, it brought back memories to them. A lot of people call me to anchor their events and right now, my calendar is booked for a long time.
“A lot of doors have been opened for me. It is always good to be relevant and my Instagram videos have brought me back to reckoning.”
According to him, people say social media comedians don’t have what it takes to do stand-up comedy, but “That does not apply to me. I do my skits on stage and I also perform on stage. I anchor lots of events and the feedbacks I get from fans are refreshing.
“They have never discouraged me and I have never disappointed them. As a matter of fact, it is because of talks like that that I decided to organise today’s show so that people can see that we could also be spontaneous. Most of my video skits are not edited; I shoot them straight and that should tell you about my level of originality.”
While commenting on how he gets his inspiration, he said: “I get all my inspiration from the Holy Spirit. When you do things that are interesting and meaningful, people would have no choice but to give you audience.
“Nowadays, people even call me names such Baba Ijo, Woli and Pastor. I just like to make people laugh, and I am glad for the positive responses I always get from fans.”
