Papa Ajasco actor reveals struggles after fame
Veteran Nigerian actor Abiodun Ayoyinka disclosed that his iconic Papa Ajasco character is legally owned by Wale Adenuga's production company, limiting his career opportunities. The trademark prevents him from using the persona for personal projects, advertisements, or brand campaigns despite public demand. Ayoyinka also revealed financial difficulties since retiring from the Papa Ajasco franchise five years ago, stating he lacks a house and car. He emphasized the character's strong public association makes it hard to secure opportunities as himself.
