He emphasized the strong bond he developed with Mide Martins upon her return to Nigeria, noting that she frequently seeks his counsel on various matters, including those involving her mother.
Afeez Owo also spoke about the time when Mide Martins joined them in Nigeria and they lived together in a one-room apartment in Challenge, Mushin, along with Funmi Martins and her other two siblings. He reflected on the significant influence of Mide Martins and her mother in his life and referred to their impact on his success.
In his words,”Mide Martins was not in Nigeria she’s in the UK. When she came to Nigeria, she lived with her mother at Challenge, Mushin, in a one room apartment .
Mide’s mum lived with her 2 siblings including the actress who makes them four in the apartment. Before Mide’s arrival, he was already staying with them as the only man.
I don’t know the love between Mide and I, she doesn’t do anything without consulting me and her mother often took my help in discipling her.
My success is heavily influenced by her family”.
