Popular actor Murphy Afolabi first appeared in a Yoruba film as a child actor in Ifa Olokun, directed by Dagunro. Today, the Osun State native talks about his work, problems, and goals in this interview with BAYO ADEOYE.
So ur father taught u how to do traditional medicine?
No, it was from him that I learned Yoruba and incantation. I have never hesitated to spend money on research since I am so passionate about Yoruba tradition and culture. Sango and Oya is a film on which I am currently working. There have already been numerous stories written about them, but mine will be different. Before the major production, I invested a lot of money in it. I traveled to Ede in order to meet their worshipers, who were kind enough to assist me. It cost me N1 million.
u mentioned that ur father sometimes helps u, thus u must possess some charms. How many times have u sought spiritual help from him?
I swear to God, I've never asked his help to establish a reputation for myself in the industry. You won't discover a single incision on my body if you search hard enough. Even for witches and wizards' protection? Because this life is cruel, I can't tell you this, my brother. People may want to test the degree of my power since they regard me as the child of a native doctor; therefore, I must defend myself as much as possible. God my shield and protector, however, is the truth ..
