The talented actor and filmmaker Femi Adebayo paid tribute to his father, Adebayo Salami, by presenting him with his AMVCA trophies.
According to Famous9ja, the actor and filmmaker clinched two awards at the recently concluded Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards held on Saturday, May 10.
Femi Adebayo took to his Instagram page to share a heartfelt video of the moment he presented his awards to his father, accompanied by prayers from him and others present. In the caption, Femi described his father as the foundation of his journey.
He expressed deep gratitude for the love and support shown by both his parents, acknowledging that their sacrifices, prayers, and unwavering love shaped him into who he is today. He humbly declared that without them, he wouldn’t be where he is.
“There are moments awards can’t measure—like this one. Humbled beyond words as my father, Alhaji Adebayo Salami @adebayo.salami, and my dear mothers poured prayers over me today.
Seven Doors may have triumphed at AMVCA2025, but the true foundation of everything I am… is right here.
Their sacrifices, their prayers, their love—without them, there is no me.
This win is ours”.
