 Ayyukan wasan kwaikwayo 
Pategi, who was born into a royal family of the emirate, is also an heir to the throne of the Etsu Pategi. However, he chose to follow his dream career. He once revealed that he was the leading candidate to succeed his father and grandfather to the throne as Etsu Pategi, a Nupe town in present-day Kwara State. His father is Etsu Usman Patako, the king of Pategi, and his grandfather ascended the throne after the death of his predecessor.

He decided to allow his younger brother, Chatta, to take over the throne of Um Baru so that he could become king. He often appears in the roles of a police officer or soldier in his daily acting performances in the film industry. When asked about it, he explained that because of the experience he gained as a soldier, he decided to adopt the way they respond, move, and give commands—this is where the name “Samanja” came from. The style of Sergeant and Major reflects authority and command in rank.

He further stated that acting gives him greater joy, and that is why he retired and returned fully to his acting career. He frequently performs during Army Day celebrations, including events attended by General Ibrahim Babangida in Lagos State, at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa in Abuja, and also at events associated with Maryam Abacha.
