Meet Deji Oladokun, Son of Late Nollywood Comic-Actor Baba Alaran Who Is Also an Entertainer

• Deji Oladokun is one of the sons of late Nollywood actor Mufutau Oladokun, who was otherwise known as Baba Alaran
• Just like her late father, Deji is also a comedian and an actor, and it may interest film enthusiasts to know that they have a striking facial resemblance
• Deji shared a video clip from one of the films Baba Alaran featured in and expressed how much he has missed the deceased

Considering the blockbuster films produced in Nigeria, it would not be erroneous to assert that Nollywood has produced the best in the African filmmaking industry. When it comes to talents and films, the Nigerian filmmaking industry is well-rated in Africa as a whole.

However, should one become an enthusiast of Nollywood films and the industry practitioners, one would get attached to them, such that he becomes a fan of a practitioner. This is why when they (the actors) die, it’s usually a massive blow to the fanbase and the Nollywood industry at large.
