Lawal Babalola Oreofeoluwa, the young prodigy famed for his funny video known as ‘Mummy Calm Down,’ has clinched a movie role in the movie industry, Nollywood.
The little boy became famous during the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020 when his mum posted a video of his antics.
The video showed her about to punish him for doing something she consistently asked him not to do.
The smart Lawal employed all antics possible to negotiate his way out of the punishment while pleading with his mother to ‘calm down, sit down and rest a little.’
