Popular Yoruba movie actress and Mayorkun’s mother, Toyin Adewale has revealed how she initially did not support her son’s music career.
Speaking with City People, Toyin Adewale revealed that she did not support her son’s music career from the beginning. She further revealed that she still monitors Mayorkun’s daily activities, despite the him being a celebrity.

In her words; “It makes me proud and I am happy about it, I never knew Mayowa will go into music. He used to be a junior choir master while in the choir, but never knew he would go this far, because he has always been a very quiet, easy-going person. He is not a loud guy, but you know God’s ways are not our ways, so when he started, I became very happy and proud of him. Initially I was very afraid, I didn’t even give him my blessing, I said I have been in the entertainment industry for long and I know what it entails, so I didn’t support. It was his father who said Toyin, let’s give him a chance, he studied banking in school. “So, I was like why not go and work with your certificate then do music alongside but my husband convinced me. So, we decided to give him our blessings and today to God be the glory.”
