The "Star Wars" actor was in Nigeria for a couple of days for his first visit back home and he is clearly enjoying a holiday well spent with family.

The actor paid a visit to Ibadan before moving on to Abeokuta to visit his grandma, family and friends.

Boyega is currently back in London after his much needed break with his family. According to the actor, there was no press time because his grandma didn't want one.

The Nigerian "Star Wars" alum, who has been listed on Forbes' Hollywood 30 under 30 influencer's, has been very forward about his Nigerian roots and just might be ready to integrate himself with his people.

Boyega had been on a steady rise since the beginning of this year and is definitely one actor to look out for, as has been pointed out by his winning of the Rising Star Award at BAFTA 2016.

In 2013, John Boyega starred in the movie ‘Half Of a Yellow Sun’featuring fellow Nigerian actor, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Thandie Newton. The movie was about a love story set during the Biafra War.
