Nigerian musician, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, professionally known as Mayorkun has revealed why he kept his mother’s identity a secret for years.
He stated this during a chat with Taymesan on Saturday, explaining that he didn’t want to be treated with favouritism anywhere.
“I didn’t like the fact that my mom was a popular actress because I and my brother wanted freedom, but with her fame came fake attention and all.
“I hated being treated differently, not because you like me but because I am Toyin Adewale’s son.
“Even in my university, people didn’t know she was my mother for four years. I was intentional about this.
“My mum brought food to me at school once, and a girl saw her. I quickly ran to her to get what she came with just so no one else saw her.”
