Nollywood actress Toyin Adewale has blessed the internet with an adorable video of Yoruba veterans, Fausat Balogun and Fali Werepe, struggling to speak English.
In the video posted on her Instagram, the veterans are captured on what appears to be a movie set as they struggle to speak English. At some point, the comic veterans question whether their English is correct.
Captioning the video, Toyin prayed for them and urged her fans and followers to pray for them as well.
“Throwback Tuesday !!!
See my beautiful Mamas speaking English ooo
Madam Saje: My oyinbo is not correct?
Faliwerepe: What of me nko?
Dear Mamas
Veterans, Icons, old timers, awon Iya Alalubarika
I celebrate you today and I pray eoni dagba iya, eoni subu danu, isu omo atunbo jina fun yin je, eoni saisan eoni saare, eetunbo kowaje pepepe lase edumare
Lovelies, please drop a word of prayer for my beautiful Mamas
@sajetiologa
@faliwerepe”.
Taking to her comment section to appreciate her for the prayers,
Fali Werepe wrote, “My woman. Amen, amen in oruko Jesus. Thank you so much, my sister
Fausat Balogun wrote, “Thank you so much, my darling sister”.
In 2023, Fausat Balogun opened up about some unknown truths about herself, revealing that she didn’t go beyond primary school education because of her acting career. This has hindered her advancement, particularly in the English sector of the movie industry, however, she was consoled by the highly educated and amazing people God had used to bless her in the movie industry.
The sweet moment between Fausat and Fali Werepe is coming less than two years after their fallout.
In September 2022, Madam Saje and Fali Werepe almost clashed at Yinka Quadri’s 63rd birthday party, after the latter countered her statement at the party. During her speech, Madam Saje shaded her colleagues claiming she had known the celebrant for nearly 50 years. This didn’t sit well with Fali, who responded with an exclamatory response and screamed to counter the statement. Madam Saje, who counted the reaction as an insult, claimed she was a senior to Fali Werepe in the industry.
Speaking out over the incident, Yinka Quadri shared a post on friendship on his social media page. The veteran actor noted that friendship is not about who came first but about those who came and never left.
Luckily, the ladies settled their rift, as Fausat Balogun sweetly celebrates Fali Werepe on her birthday in April, 2023. Describing her as her beautiful friend, Fausat rained prayers on her and affirmed her undying love for her.
