Everything Femi said about his childhood was true. We both grew up at pako - eleja area mushin road, Infact we played football together somethings at Alvis Street. About those guys that's killed was true. It was tough even for some of us who're pastors son then, Thank God for His mercies.
@@ajayioluwatosin2498 my dear oluwatosi.. I like when I see people online, that we where born & live in the same area ,,(I am materco limited company daughter ,my daddy was very popular due to building construction company he have then.The office was in Ramoni ,but we live in durojaiye Street close to Pele modina house.Alvi is where ijoma motor live close to oseni Street .Beautiful memories re-connected,sir Femi ogedegbe was really a womaniser then but very lovely 😍 👌 guy.(is only igbo lady that can tolerate him indeed..
Itire was shaken when they killed those guys....was living on Dosunmu street...Those are guys that were ruling in Itire/ikate axis...thank God for life
Master class!!! This is hands down the best interview on this channel. Mr. Ogedengbe is a down to earth man, omo eko gidi and highly intelligent. This interview brought back memories of Lagos when everything was innocent and pure. Thank you for coming on this show.
About 28 minutes in, but all I can say is your story is very compelling. I'll finish the interview later. I like the inscription on your T shirt. I know you are a changed man now, and hope you are a follower of Jesus Christ? God bless you bro. ❤
Please Teju we need a part 2 of this.This will teach those back home to know that a seriously fruited mango tree started with 1,2 and scattered fruits before arriving at being so fruited ❤❤❤.Let them say Femi they are on their own.
All Femi said is the truth. We all grow up together and I remember that day those boys were killed. Femi is a friend and we both went to Eleja together. There are things Femi did in Primary school that he has 😅forgotten. When we see I will remained him. Our area was full of boys and I survived,i was never in any peers pressures. Femi! Take care bro.
Hmm! That day shook the whole of Itire, most people knew there robbers but no one was ready to confront them....I was living on Dosunmu street then. I lived amongst these guys for so long and thank God for us that made it out of that area for the best! Anytime I tell people where I grew up, they don't believe me.
Thank you Teju for bringing Mr.Femi Ogedengbe to your Podcast. He made me remember growing up in Ijesha Tedo Surulere. In mid to late 80s did scavenging business to Oke Afa dumping site on Egbe road to pick plastics carry it, trek to Hassan/Ilasa bus stop. Cross over to the Tire area continue walking to sell the plastics at Itelorun street in Ijesha. Today I am trained and registered Engineer. Thank you Femi Ogedengbe. ❤❤❤
u were a hood person, I know the shop of the Igbo woman at itelorun that used to buy from scavengers, I was born and brought up in wosilat daodu street may God bless our hustle
This is the bomb! Classic interview. These are the kind of interviews we draw inspirations from. There are a lot of lessons to learn. It felt like I was watching a movie.
There is dignity of labor in any advanced😢 country. But 9jer likes to show off by putting down jobs that could temporarily get them to another level. Kudos to you, Femi. " Anything worth doing is worth doing well " with dignity, of course.
I’m blessed for watching this 😢and I promise That I won’t give up I will enter that Canada or Luxembourg and I will make it Big God remember me Amen!!! 😭😭😭
You can fulfill your dreams in Nigeria too. Remember that the wealthiest people in Africa never left Africa. Africa changing. If I was younger now, I would not have left Africa.
Egbon Femi @femiogedengbe i will never forget the days you cut my hair at my grandpa's house @ Onipede Street till you blossomed into Nollywood .You were always a role model sir and I'm grateful to have known you. Keep rising egbon mi ( your boy Olayori Onipede)
Femi Ogedengbe, I identify with your story. God bless you and your family. I respect and admire your resilience particularly the respect and appreciation you have for Nkechi your wife. You honesty, sincerity, and courage I admire. I am an Igbo woman and that a Yoruba man will appreciate and publicly believe in a common Igbo girl….God open more doors for you. I cried almost all through the interview because your life experience resonates with me.
Correction, Igbo girls are not common. Most Igbo women are great. Very responsible, very hard working, and very supportive to their husband. He knew his wife Nkechi was not a common Igbo girl when he got married to her. My niece is married to a Yoruba husband. Her mother in law appreciated her for her hard work and how she has helped her son to be more responsible and happy. No Igbo girls are common. I am an Igbo woman, and I am a great woman❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@chikauko2418 Nothing is common about an igbo girl or any human for that matter. You have to decide how you want to be treated. You need to have some self-esteem, please. I am an igbo woman and im proud of my heritage. Yes ive been married to my yoruba husband for 14 years but i dont see it as a privilege but something we built and deserve!
This is a true masterclass. Thank you @Teju Babyface for bringing this great man on your show. I've learnt a lot from everything he's said on this platform. May God continue to bless you all.
The way this Legend respects people is phenomenal.... Han Han I love respectful people... I’m from the ghettos too but I’m Learning more from your kind and respectful words....
I've always loved the realness of Femi Ogedengbe in movies......Listening to his story has just increased my love for him. I'm glad he didn't go into arm robbery like some of his childhood friend. This story is really inspiring. May God take him to a height that's greater than his dream.
I had heard about the story of a Nigerian actor who camr to America and did security work. My first thought was,"What's wrong with being a security guard? He had to start somewhere." Because I did not know him, I didnt follow the story. I am a Nollywood movie fan for 22 yrs, but I am mostly acquainted with the actors/actresses names, not directors except if the actor/actress I am used to is producing/directing his or her own movie. Only a few directors I'm custom seeing, like Chidi Chikere, Andy Chuku, Uche Nancy, and the Moses brother. Cannot remember their names now. I love Ogedengbe's story; it is authentic unlike the average Nigerian who are pretentious. They lie to look good which does not work in America because nobody cares if you are struggling or making it. People dont know and they really do not care. Most of the time people who think they are pretending to be making it are invisible. This is an individualistic society. In America, one can only impress his or her family by graduating high school, college, and choosing a great career, and making a profitable living from it. The rest of the society do not give a dam about you. Also, today, it does not pay to show off because in one day, one can move from riches to object poverty.
I was glued to this talk and could not believe I watched this all through, listening intently for 1hr, 35 min, and 29 seconds! Wow! So much to relate to, but so much more to learn, especially his last word, advising ... "be focused!" 👏👏👏
Bro Teju, I need to say thank you for sharing these stories. I really love the stories that you and your guest share. One thing that resonates with me as a 30+ man is that the journey of life can be long and our individual experiences are varied and unique. Even though my journey is very different from many of your guest, I find that the many lessons about family, perseverance , fame and even career change are ingredients in shaping my perspective about my own unique challenges. Thank you sir. Just a side note, we did not get your usual commentary at the end of this episode.
This is the best interview I have ever listened to amongst Nigerian podcasts. 99% of them will not allow the guest to answer but keep talking over their own questions. We learned a lot from Femi because he was allowed to talk. Thanks, Teju. It's better to work hard and not fall to temptations. Now he's reaping the fruits of making and taking his decisions, considering the situation of our country(i no fit laf jare...comparing low currency to high currency 😂😂). He also has a good wife. He is so proud of her. He has his own house now. Thumbs up for taking the plunge.
It got to a point I almost wept listening to you. You were a security guard but you didn't put our name in the mud in the US. You're better, comfortable and at peace with yourself, with clear conscience before man and God. No DSS, ICPC or EFCC after you, yet you have your children in the same school our politicians embezzle our money to send theirs to. I'm proud of you bro.
See me smiling and crying at the same time watching this man's experience, dear Lord, Mo dupe lowo re Jehovah,jowo saanu fun emi na...God bless mr.femi, even though I'm hearing about him for the 1st time, God bless mr.teju Babyface also...your oil of wisdom shall continually increase... democracy ooo😁🙌🕊️
I CAN TESTIFY TO ALL HE'S SAYING I GREW UP IN THE AREA AROUND THE SAME TIME BUT MY MUM WAS A BANKER AND A DISCIPLINARIAN WE'RE LUCKY MY BACKGROUND WAS A LITTLE BIT BETTER. FEMO IS HERE TODAY BECAUSE HE EXPERIENCED GOD'S MERCY AND GRACE. GBAYI.
I thought the same, but I later figured out in the course of the interview that he might not have gone to university or college, he must have gone straight to the film industry straight after secondary school
I guessTeju got so engrossed with the story that he forgot to ask him that because noticed how very fluent he spoke and listening to him share his background I could tell rhat he might not have attended college due to finance but he sis a good job of himself. You will almost never tell If he didn't say
This is the best interview on Teju's channel. I hope a movie of this man's life can be made. Imagine when the movie says based on a true life story. It will be epic. Femi Ogedengbe - much repect.
I was born and grew up in itire and am very familiar with the names and street he mentioned. I lived at Adefimihan street. Growing up in that area was tough and rough. But we thank God for everything.
Femi Ogedengbe A wonderful actor from Surulere. Its been ages that you are not in Nollywood. But its nice seeing actor like this doing well for himself. God Bless You Sir.
Thanks Teju for this, @FemiOgedengbe You are the real deal men, we no relate, but l'm so proud of you, you too much. Shout out to your wife Nkechi for sticking all thru those shits with you. I hail💪🙌🙌
Wow to God be the glory I don’t know them but I really enjoyed the message. I also don’t do married women but lately I’ve been getting pressure from two two married women. This will further solidify my stand by God’s grace. God saw this guy through.
Thank you baba … a story we can’t forget pano eleja , Iyana itire Eurasia junction . My cousin is was shoot by the 1000 boys then at eleja primary school . Thank God for life uncle Femo you too much . Now in 🇺🇸🇺🇸 also from nowhere to somewhere .
I am at a loss for words to adequately express the profound impact this interview has had on me. All I can do is humbly offer my utmost gratitude and praise to the Almighty for this enlightening experience.🙏🙏🙏🙏
i saw the highlight of this interview and have decided to watch the full interview....sincerely this is one of the best interview I watched...awesome experience....so proud of you big bro.
I have been looking for Femi Ogedengbe's story. thank God I watched this interview, it was jaw dropping .....I never blinked once while watching this......I can relate with every single line of his story....we came from a similar background ......Am watching from England
He is correct 100%, it takes a brave man to take the step he took. Any dignify man will pack shit, to give his family a better future. Even Dr AZIKWE, while in Lincorn university, did dishes to get by. So migration is a natural evolution of human being. So big up Ogedengbe, for all your inspirational stories
Femi my brother. Winis hotel in those days at surulere. I also did not do well in the movie industry bcos i was selective on the type of roles i played. But its fine bcos i can raise my head high anytime, anywhere i come in contact with former acting colleagues. Thank God!! More blessings!!
I always wondered why people criticise any available source of survival someone can lay his hands on. Any work that feeds you and your family is worth it and you can be proud of yourself for making ends meet for yourself and your family. Please be proud of yourself and thank God for everything 👍🙏❤️💯
This is really a great interview!! i do watch your podcast but bro this is the best have watched so far 👏👏. some parts of his stories remind me of mine and it gives more hopes here in the uk. Big up to you both Bros👍👍👍.
Very admirable and courageous indeed. Ìsàlè orò l'egbin. What is still very unfortunate for our people, though, is the use of cult gangs in the negative way to destroy ourselves instead of using cultism and fraternities to really develop ourselves, land and peoples.
Uncle Femi Ogedengbe followed me back on Instagram. And since then i have been following him closely. God bless you Teju babyface for doing this interview. This is more than just an interview...this a whole lecture all together
Thanks to teju for this wonderful and educative interview ❤for our brother Femi Ogedengbe I've been watching him since i was a young man Your life is inspiring and I wish you good luck in the state Ema ko ere oko dele o
This indeed is a masterclass in survival. Kudos to Femi for weathering the storm. His testimony speaks to the power and advantage in walking with a life partner. Some want to wait until all their ducks are lined in a row to take the leap, but they forget the wisdom in the saying “if you want to go fast, walk alone; but if you want to go far, walk together.” Nk is his walking partner and they’re walking very far. Slow and steady wins the race….emphasis on steady. A load is easier to bear when there’s a good and willing partner to share it with.
This was hard to stop watching, thank you Teju Babyface for sharing this story. I also think that the transformation of Teju Babyface has been phenomenal. It is quite incredible and its necessary to be loud in our praises.
Femi, it is a pleasure seeing u on tejubaby face programme ..(You are making me to remember where will all grow up in lagos "pako eleja sekipero soko( hope you remember" pele modina brother too,he was slaughter infront of her mother too in durojaiye Street..life sha,we thank God for our life.
Thank u,One love bro..Are u in diaspora too..(we should all plan ❤ and meet for holidays "we the pako &eleja and lawanson and itire road this area "we all know each other some how ,somehow we the Generation × 😃
Moving picture trending in men's visions! Very captivating story! Nigeria has been rusticating many talented people and wasted them under her stiinking darkness willingly. Govt of go and fight for your head NIGERIA WE HAIL THEE! When are we going to be making our govt to be accountable for the social wellness and fairness for all? uumh!
The strory should be scripted into a movie. Teju Baby is such a skilled interviewer, he didn't interrupt the show with plenty questions, he allowed Mr. Femi tell his story... I was held spell all along.... Thank God say the stew I was cooking, didn't burn ooo 😂😂
Femi, thanks for sharing your challenges, your ups & downs and God's amazing triumphs in your life. God bless you and your family... continuing success in all your endeavors in Jesus' Mighty Name.
Hi Mr Teju, with your reach, I would be very glad if you can get Mrs Funmi Adams on set. We need to see her again. I hope she is still alive. Growing up in the early 90's couldn't have been complete without her.
Everything Femi said about his childhood was true. We both grew up at pako - eleja area mushin road, Infact we played football together somethings at Alvis Street. About those guys that's killed was true. It was tough even for some of us who're pastors son then, Thank God for His mercies.

.Beautiful memories re-connected,sir Femi ogedegbe was really a womaniser then but very lovely 😍 👌 guy.(is only igbo lady that can tolerate him indeed..
That was when Mushin was "cleaned".
I really cherish your truth 🎉.Thank you for sharing your experiences.
Itire was shaken when they killed those guys....was living on Dosunmu street...Those are guys that were ruling in Itire/ikate axis...thank God for life
Growing up in Nigeria in the 90s was a different world. The country has been insane for a long time.
TRUE TALK.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😢
And nobody is giving Bukky Wright some accolades too, story so touching
Master class!!! This is hands down the best interview on this channel. Mr. Ogedengbe is a down to earth man, omo eko gidi and highly intelligent. This interview brought back memories of Lagos when everything was innocent and pure. Thank you for coming on this show.

His story of scavenging is similar to Daddy Showkeys. A very very tough life. We thank God
Yeah, on Nedu’s podcast. I guess that was the trend amongst young guys back then
This is a true masterclass. Thank you @Teju Babyface for bringing this great man on your show. I've learnt a lot from everything he's said on this platform. May God continue to bless you all.
The way this Legend respects people is phenomenal.... Han Han I love respectful people... I’m from the ghettos too but I’m Learning more from your kind and respectful words....
Respect was a core moral back then ..not now wey people just disrespect anyhow
I used “The “Tears of the Ghetto 1&2” for my masters thesis in 2006/7. Great movie.
oh wow! Thank you 🙏
I thank God for your life! At 46 in a shared room, sleeping in garrage .... trying to balance .... wow!
God built you to last. And you shall last.
I've always loved the realness of Femi Ogedengbe in movies......Listening to his story has just increased my love for him. I'm glad he didn't go into arm robbery like some of his childhood friend. This story is really inspiring. May God take him to a height that's greater than his dream.
"he didn't go into robbery"? when all his friends then were all into it? Just saying I am not saying he did tho

I love Ogedengbe's story; it is authentic unlike the average Nigerian who are pretentious. They lie to look good which does not work in America because nobody cares if you are struggling or making it. People dont know and they really do not care. Most of the time people who think they are pretending to be making it are invisible. This is an individualistic society.

As an Immigrant abroad, this is so interesting and motivating to watch.
I was glued to this talk and could not believe I watched this all through, listening intently for 1hr, 35 min, and 29 seconds! Wow!
So much to relate to, but so much more to learn, especially his last word, advising ... "be focused!" 👏👏👏
Love this guy so much. We used to call him “Woman Wrapper” based on his character in “Across the Border”
Round of applause for this man!!!!!!. You have WON!
You should always introduce your guest and provide a background so that anybody who is seeing them for the first time will understand their story
He does that always na. Use the word "always" better next time
This man(Mr Femi) taught me the invisible line of camera, the day I visited Saidi Balogun for my research, in his Agidingbin office in October 2015.
Great interview. Raw truth from a great guy. I just love him. Thanks, Teju for bringing him.
Bro Teju, I need to say thank you for sharing these stories. I really love the stories that you and your guest share. One thing that resonates with me as a 30+ man is that the journey of life can be long and our individual experiences are varied and unique.

This is more than an interview, to me, it's a blockbuster movie. I really enjoyed my time watching.
I loved his courage and tenacity, and his down-to-earth attitude. Femi Ogedemgbe truly inspired me. Wishing him the best.
This is beautiful.... filled with different emotions. Thanks for being true to who you are ❤
Teju. Please, He didn't mention anything about the schools he attended and he speaks good English. I am a fan of your work. Love from Maryland. MD
I was thinking the same!
I thought the same, but I later figured out in the course of the interview that he might not have gone to university or college, he must have gone straight to the film industry straight after secondary school

Even Dr AZIKWE, while in Lincorn university, did dishes to get by. So migration is a natural evolution of human being. So big up Ogedengbe, for all your inspirational stories
That is the story of every immigrant in United States
Femi my brother. Winis hotel in those days at surulere. I also did not do well in the movie industry bcos i was selective on the type of roles i played. But its fine bcos i can raise my head high anytime, anywhere i come in contact with former acting colleagues. Thank God!! More blessings!!
I always wondered why people criticise any available source of survival someone can lay his hands on. Any work that feeds you and your family is worth it and you can be proud of yourself for making ends meet for yourself and your family. Please be proud of yourself and thank God for everything 👍🙏❤️💯
That was very deep. Revealing, yet inspiring. Thanks to the two of you.
My love for femi ogendengbe tripled after watching this interview--a true definition of "se bi o se mo" .. God bless him, and God bless Teju (Ame)
This is really a great interview!! i do watch your podcast but bro this is the best have watched so far 👏👏. some parts of his stories remind me of mine and it gives more hopes here in the uk. Big up to you both Bros👍👍👍.
Very admirable and courageous indeed. Ìsàlè orò l'egbin.
What is still very unfortunate for our people, though, is the use of cult gangs in the negative way to destroy ourselves instead of using cultism and fraternities to really develop ourselves, land and peoples.
What a loaded interview. Femi ogedengbe is a very resourceful person. Thumbs up Teju.
10 has been happening before I was born,10 is happening right now,10 will still happen !!!
Egbon Femi Ogedengbe thank u for sharing dis so encouraging.i can remember i saw at Ikeja dat was 2010 -2011
This is so touching and impactful. Please, we need a part 2
Oga Femi, Kudos... Teju weldone. Interview was down to earth and inspiring
Teju is honestly a walking Encyclopaedia. This man has range!
Uncle Femi Ogedengbe followed me back on Instagram. And since then i have been following him closely.
God bless you Teju babyface for doing this interview.
This is more than just an interview...this a whole lecture all together
It’s really more than an interview. Very insightful ❤
Thanks to teju for this wonderful and educative interview ❤for our brother Femi Ogedengbe I've been watching him since i was a young man
Your life is inspiring and I wish you good luck in the state

This indeed is a masterclass in survival. Kudos to Femi for weathering the storm. His testimony speaks to the power and advantage in walking with a life partner. Some want to wait until all their ducks are lined in a row to take the leap, but they forget the wisdom in the saying “if you want to go fast, walk alone; but if you want to go far, walk together.” Nk is his walking partner and they’re walking very far. Slow and steady wins the race….emphasis on steady. A load is easier to bear when there’s a good and willing partner to share it with.
"Owo security" has got to be the Coldest mic drop
Wow , God bless you Femi, what an inspiring story! Thanks for sharing.
We all have stories to tell. Thanks for sharing your life experiences. O to di itan loni. God be praised
Master class, gidi..... I celebrate your wins, Sir.
This was hard to stop watching, thank you Teju Babyface for sharing this story. I also think that the transformation of Teju Babyface has been phenomenal. It is quite incredible and its necessary to be loud in our praises.
He was my classmate in Community Grammar School. He was a bold and tough guy.
Yes! This is the man I have been willing Teju will interview. I had this thought last week. Kudos for finding him.
Great interview. I love the way Femi came out unfiltered. Kudos man.

Femi was very right. I grew up in the late 80's and that was what was in vogue then.
"Every other actor, Igbe la n f'ewe"😂😂😂
"Everybody fon dagbe"😂😂😂😂😂
Moving picture trending in men's visions! Very captivating story!
Nigeria has been rusticating many talented people and wasted them under her stiinking darkness willingly. Govt of go and fight for your head NIGERIA WE HAIL THEE!
When are we going to be making our govt to be accountable for the social wellness and fairness for all? uumh!
I'm truly inspired!! God bless everyone 🙏🏼
Brilliant! I always enjoy your inspiring interviews 🤩👌🏾
The strory should be scripted into a movie. Teju Baby is such a skilled interviewer, he didn't interrupt the show with plenty questions, he allowed Mr. Femi tell his story... I was held spell all along.... Thank God say the stew I was cooking, didn't burn ooo 😂😂

Femi you will continue to be great. Respect. Who no go, no know
Wow, when God turns the captivity of Zion. You are blessed and extremely inspiring
Hi Mr Teju, with your reach, I would be very glad if you can get Mrs Funmi Adams on set. We need to see her again. I hope she is still alive. Growing up in the early 90's couldn't have been complete without her.
Yes o. And Evi Edna Ogholi.
Hé is right about his background. We grew up together in Dosunmu, Oja ale, Mushin Lagos. I used to be glad I had an actor living in my ghetto then.
Wow. I enjoyed every minute of this interview. May God continue to bless you Mr Femi. Big big shout out to Teju❤❤❤
