This means more responsibilities for Adebayo, who recently became a special adviser to the Governor of Kwara State, Abdulfatah Ahmed, on Arts, Culture and Tourism.
The actor, who is the son of veteran actor, Adebayo Salami, joins actors like Richard Mofe Damijo and Kate Henshaw, in respect to celebrities who have enjoyed political appointments.
Adebayo got exposure to acting in 1995, when he featured in Tade Ogidan's "Owo Blow". The movie was quite a hit at the time.

In a recent interview with Saturday Beats, he corrected rumours concerning him quitting acting for a political appointment.
He said,
“I was called to serve and I would give it all I got. Serving as the
special assistant to the governor of Kwara State is a huge distraction
but I do not mind because the society has given me so much and it is
time for me to give back. I cannot remember the last time I went to a
movie location.”
“I am not a politician.
It is an appointment and not an elective post. It is a call to serve and
the governor believes that I am capable enough to handle the area of
arts, culture and tourism of my state and that is why I was appointed, I
am not a politician,” he added.
