He revealed that despite years of fame, he does not own a house or a car, which shocked many Nigerians.

He also stated that at the peak of his career, he earned two thousand five hundred naira per episode, and currently earns about forty-five thousand naira per episode. However, filming is not consistent. Sometimes it happens once a year, and in some cases, there are gaps of up to two years, making the income unreliable.

He also explained that the “Papa Ajasco” name and character are owned by Wale Adenuga Productions, meaning he cannot use the identity for personal deals or endorsements.

After the interview went viral, his account details circulated online and donations started coming in. King Mitchy also visited him and supported him financially.

Days later, Wale Adenuga Productions responded, describing his claims as false and misleading. According to them, he is not in distress, has benefited from the company, used good vehicles, and was provided with a house.

They also stated that actors are paid according to industry standards and typically film for about six weeks each year, leaving room for other income sources. They further pointed out that he is a retired civil servant and questioned his retirement benefits.

Pa James also spoke in a separate interview, stating that he has a good relationship with Wale Adenuga and has never been owed by the company.

In a recent development, [b]Abiodun Ayoyinka has now rebranded himself as “Bondu Alaska,” [/b]likely to move past the trademark restrictions.

Papa Ajasco na pencil in the hand of the creator

What if “ papa ajasco was a reckless spender”
What if “wale Adenuga wasn’t compensating them enough”
What if all this was a marketing gimmick for a rebranding purpose.

They say every PR is a good PR
Whether good or bad

JuanDeDios:
Reckless spender of what? N2,000 six times a year? N45,000 per episode?

Look, I'm not making excusing for Mr Ayoyinka - it was up to him to find other sources of income. But his claims seem correct, as they have not been contradicted by WAP in their robust response.

Tooreda:
What’s WAP’s business with his gratuity?

He had a choose to seek for new contract if he wasn't earning enough. It's a fundamental rights, WAP couldn't have denied him that rights if he did want. So everything is Papa Ajasco's faults and his cross to carry.
