To honour the occasion, his son and fellow actor, Femi Adebayo has announced the release of a new film entitled ‘Her Excellency’.
The ‘Jagun Jagun’ actor described the project as a tribute to his 72-year-old father’s enduring legacy and craftsmanship.
“Some stories are bigger than words, and some men are greater than the legends told about them,” Femi said.
“Today, I stand with immense pride, gratitude and joy as I celebrate my father — my mentor, my hero — as he marks 60 years of unwavering excellence in filmmaking.”
‘Her Excellency’ is set to premiere exclusively on June 29, 2025, with a nationwide cinema release from July 4.
Femi Adebayo, who himself has become one of Nollywood’s most successful contemporary actors, said the release of ‘Her Excellency’ is more than a film, it is a celebration of endurance, mentorship and legacy.
“This moment isn’t just for him,” he said. “It’s for every dreamer, every creative, every artist who dares to build, to sacrifice, to endure.”
Salami began his acting career in 1964, with a group called Young Concert Party, under the leadership of Ojo Ladipo, popularly known as Baba Mero. After a few years, the group metamorphosed into Awada Kerikeri Theatre Group.
