Yemi Solade Tenders Apology to Afeez Owo Over a 20-year-old Slap

 

Veteran Nollywood actor Yemi Solade has tendered a public apology to fellow actor and filmmaker Afeez Abiodun, popularly known as Afeez Owo.

 

Solade apologized over a physical altercation that occurred more than two decades ago on a movie set.

 

Speaking in a recent interview on Behind the Fame African A-List, Yemi Solade recounted the incident, which he said took place during a film shoot in a town on the outskirts of Ibadan. At the time, Afeez was serving as the production manager for the project.

 

“Let me apologise to Afeez Abiodun. I slapped him once. He was the production manager of a movie, I can’t recall the year exactly. We got to the town outskirts of Ibadan, and when we finished filming, there was a blackout,” he said.

 

 

Solade went on to say that Afeez left the movie location the next morning without a word, and the incident had weighed on his conscience ever since.
