Hollywood actor, John Boyega has come out to share the story of how his dad keeps searching for a wife for him.

His words, “My dad randomly text me “Bamidele what is your type” this man is in Nigeria putting in the work during this Rona.”

LOL.

Boyega was a pupil at Oliver Goldsmith Primary School. While acting in a play there at the age of nine, he was noticed by Teresa Early, the artistic director of Theatre Peckham, a learning theatre for young people who live in south London.
