Adetokunbo Oladipo

Adetokunbo "Tokunbo" Oladipo is a character in Friends of a Friend.

A struggling British actor with a questionable claim to the lineage of Ashipa, the first Oba of Lagos, Tokunbo landed himself in an understandably vague and convoluted financial predicament when he moved to Lagos in an attempt to break into the Nigerian film industry. He and Eden have been in contact virtually for several years, after he emailed her promising to repay her in full if she would help bail him out of prison, a promise he kept. Eden often contacts him for financial help, and he often contacts her for advise in various personal issues.

Pre-Series
Born in South London to Nigerian immigrant parents, Tokunbo has dreamed of fame since his youth, pursuing any venture he believed would help him achieve it. After his "big break" in the form of chewing gum commercial....

Personality
Tokunbo is neurotic and melodramatic, though how much of this is sincere and how much is attention-seeking behavior isn't clear. Tokunbo is trusting to a fault, always jumping at the promise of fame and success, which rarely come to fruition.

Tokunbo can be vain and shallow, but he is not heartless. He takes Eden's concerns extremely seriously, openly worrying when she appears distressed. It is implied he has a crush on her, which she does not reciprocate, if she is aware of it at all.
