Omo Banke made America home for me – Jigan Baba expresses gratitude

Nollywood actor, Jigan Baba Oja has expressed deep gratitude to fellow actor, Soji Taiwo, popularly known as Soji Omo Banke, for his extraordinary kindness and support during his stay in the United States.

In a heartfelt tribute, Jigan recalled how Omo Banke opened his doors and heart when he needed it the most:

“If not for Soji Omo Banke, I would have suffered a lot when I went to America. I haven’t seen anyone else in the movie industry who could do what Soji did for me. He welcomed me into his home, fed me, and treated me like family.”

Jigan went on to describe the depth of Soji’s generosity:

“So many times, he gave up his bedroom for me and slept in the living room. I used to microwave food about ten times a day because I love food—but Soji never complained, never showed any attitude. He paid all the bills in the house and never asked me for a dime.”

Beyond accommodation, Soji also went out of his way to give Jigan jobs.

“Whenever they invited him to MC an event, he would tell them to give me the job instead. He would drive me to the venue, wait, and hand me the full payment without taking a single naira. Only God can reward him for that. I will never forget his kindness till I die.”
