“My Safe place. My Dad would always say ” No matter what happens Outside, know that you can ALWAYS come home”. I used those words in a movie recently, and for some reason, it hit differently. There’s a whole difference between A home and A house. My favorite thing about December is going home to my daddy and spending Christmas with him. Having all my siblings come home as well is the icing on the cake. Dear God, pls keep my daddy as he’s old and gray, ki iku ma pa daddy mi. There’s a lot I still have to do for him. Who else is excited about going home this Christmas?”.
In June 2024, Bimbo showered her father with heartfelt tributes as he celebrated his birthday. She showered him with accolades and recounted his impact on her life morally, career, and emotionally. Ademoye said her father had set a standard that she was not sure her future husband could match up to.
Recall that when Bimbo won the Best Actress at AMVCA, she took her award to her father, as she recounted how he took her to her first audition and waited for 6hours till she was done. Bimbo noted how the hood produced all the characters that she had blessed her fans with.
