That person was none other than her father. With joy and gratitude radiating from her words, she wrote, “Went back home to give the award to my award. My biggest supporter, my rock, my backbone. My Father. Met his absence, but I knew exactly where he’d be. (He loves chilling with the boys in the hood when he’s less busy on Sunday. My dad took me to my first audition and waited for 6 hours till I was done.”

A Supportive Father and a Nurturing Neighborhood:

She acknowledged her father’s pivotal role in her journey, reminiscing about how he had taken her to her very first audition and patiently waited for six hours until she was finished. This selfless act of support and belief in her talent undoubtedly left an indelible mark on Bimbo’s life.

Not only did Bimbo credit her father, but she also expressed gratitude to her neighbourhood, which she believes played a significant part in shaping her ability to portray diverse characters. “My hood produced all the characters that has made you guys laugh. From iya Barakat, to Todowede, to Selina. I’ve had to mimic someone from the hood to give those characters life. My name is Bimbo Ademoye, Ademoye Adekunke’s daughter, Ari’s aunty, and I’m from Ebute Meta. Born and bred in the hood. There are so many people I’d love to appreciate. I’m prepping my speech guys.” she proudly stated.

It is a testament to the vibrant community and the creative energy that Bimbo grew up in, influencing her passion for acting and honing her skills.
