Born Adebayo Olamilekan but nicknamed Adigun Olowe because of his prowess for reciting many Yoruba proverbs effortlessly. He did not just memorize the proverbs but he also knows their meaning even with real life applications.

According to his father, Adebayo Oladimeji, Oloye has become interested in and is learning traditional chants (Oriki) as well.

He was recently conferred with Chieftaincy title of "Agbasaga" by Olusolu of Isolu

Chief Adebayo Olamilekan is 5 years old and presently in Nursery 2 but can easily pass for a professor in culture with the ease at which he recites Yoruba proverbs and supply their meaning in English.

Lol. You won't understand. No matter how brilliant a child is, you have to let him be a child otherwise he might grow up with a dysfunctional, though intelligent, mind.

The young man is in nursery school, that shows he still has playmates and runs around like any other child.

I get your point though, let the parents not put too much burden on him as they might likely be seeing their meal ticket.
