Lateef Adedimeji Shares His Journey, Challenges

Nollywood actor and filmmaker Lateef Adedimeji recently opened up about his career journey, personal challenges, and the unique way he proposed to his wife, Bimpe.
Speaking in an interview with Chude Jideonwo, Lateef revealed the obstacles he faced in the movie industry and how his wife has been his source of strength.
Lateef recalled an early challenge when a mentor in the Yoruba movie industry predicted his career would fail within a year. Determined to prove himself, he confidently responded, “Give me two years, and you will see what I will become.”
Despite the negativity, Lateef rose to success. However, he admitted that his journey wasn’t without personal struggles.
Sharing a touching moment, he revealed how he proposed to Bimpe over the phone one morning, asking her to marry him. Her response was a simple but heartfelt “Yes.”
Lateef also spoke about the hurtful comments his wife has endured online, including being called barren. He praised her resilience and ability to rise above the trolls. “She would show me the comments and say, ‘They will be all right,’” he said.
The actor highlighted his wife’s unwavering support during his challenging times, particularly when he worked on his project Lisabi. He explained how many people who promised to support him failed to show up. “There was nobody,” he said, adding that Bimpe’s encouragement helped him rebuild his confidence.
