Forget the infamous young face, comedian and television show host, Teju Babyface is no longer a small boy. The popular entertainer is celebrating his 37th birthday today.
Born Olateju Oyelakin on January 20, 1979, Teju attended the prestigious Corona School in Lagos for his elementary education before proceeding to Federal Government College in Ogbomoso, where he was a junior to Naija Ninja boss, Sound Sultan.
Teju after his O’level education proceeded to the University of Lagos where he studied Insurance, a course he claims was handed over to him after he didn’t meet up with the list for Accounting, which was his parents’ choice of study.
Teju became famous after staring in the widely successful Nigeria movie, ‘Diamond Ring’ alongside Richard Mofe Damijo and Liz Benson. He went on to launch a career as a comedian, MC and television host and remains one of the veterans in the industry.
