By Micheal Chukwuebuka

Veteran Nollywood actor Peter Fatomilola has recounted how popular actor and comedian, Mr Macaroni, surprised him with generous financial gifts after they met at a movie location in Oyo State.

Fatomilola said he first encountered Mr Macaroni at a movie location where he had gone to work. According to him, after completing his assignment and preparing to leave, Mr Macaroni escorted him to his car and insisted on giving him transport fare.

He said he was shocked when Mr Macaroni handed him ₦200,000, despite the fact that they had not previously known each other.

“I asked him what it was for, and he insisted it was for transport fare,” Fatomilola recounted.

The veteran actor said the gesture surprised him because the person who had invited him to the location that day had only paid him ₦50,000.

Fatomilola disclosed that about three months later, Mr Macaroni invited him to work on his own movie. When he arrived at the location, he discovered that he had only been invited for one scene, in which he acted alongside veteran actor Pete Edochie.

According to him, after completing the scene, Mr Macaroni called his son and gave him ₦100,000. He also gave his grandson ₦50,000.

Fatomilola said he became even more surprised by the actor’s generosity, particularly because of the kindness shown to members of his family.

He added that Mr Macaroni later called him and handed him ₦1 million.

“I said, ‘For what?’ because it was just one scene I acted. He told me, ‘Daddy, everything is for you,’” Fatomilola recalled.

The veteran actor said he was overwhelmed by the gesture and almost wept, expressing gratitude to Mr Macaroni for his generosity.
