In a recent interview with Punch Newspaper, Ajayi said he fell in love with the musical instrument after seeing Fela play it effortlessly but passionately while he was a youngster.

"Yes, he influenced me a lot and was a major inspiration for me taking up the saxophone. Fela blew the instrument with passion and from the first day I set my eyes on him, I fell in love with him and the saxophone. I am happy I have been able to live that dream through the amazing grace of God," Ajayi revealed.

Ajayi also hinted that he gave his life to Christ at the age of 13 years old while in school and has remained in the Lord till date.
