It was recalls Lateef Adedimeji had revealed his readiness for backlash as he played the role of the National leader of the All Progressive Congress Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the movie ‘Last Man Standing.’
Lateef Adedimeji, in an interview with Saturday Beats, said there will be many misconceptions, especially with the current happenings in the build-up to the 2023 election.
However, he was prepared for whatever may happen because he was only doing his job.
According to Lateef Adedimji, at first, he seemed uninterested in the role because politics can be scary and Tinubu is not a mere politician.
However, he considered that the role would be one of the defining moments in his career and would stretch him as an actor.
