However, in his most recent interview, he stated that he apologized to his father following the incident.
In a viral video on social media, Femi, who claimed the slap as unintentional, revealed that it wasn’t part of the plan.
“It ended up slapping my father in Funke Akindele’s movie, ‘Taiwo Taiwo’ while trying to act like an aggressive thief.
“It wasn’t in the film that I had to slap him, but the character was an aggressive thief, and the man didn’t want to give us money and I just realized that I raised my hand to hit him.“
So, when I begged him after the scene, he was like you would have been in trouble if you had failed to hit me.”
