Alagba Faleti was born in Agbooye, Oyo State.〔 Although he was born in Oyo State, he lived in Obananko, Kuranga near Oyo State. He is the first son of his father, Joseph Akanbi Faleti and the only child of his mother, Durowade Ayinke Faleti. Alagba Faleti since an early age has always had a passion for drama and wanted to pursue his dream. Unfortunately, his parents could not fund his education to support his dreams due to the lack of income, so he decided to put his primary education on hold. In order to further pursue his dreams, he then gathered a couple of interested colleagues and started his very own successful theatre group, named Oyo Youth Operatic Society (founded in 1949). Alagba Faleti later found his way back to school by getting a job in a primary school in which he worked for six years, to raise enough funds for his secondary school with the financial support of his father. In 1966, he attended the University of Dakar in Senegal and obtained a Certificate of proficiency in French Language and Civilization. Two years later, he graduated from the University Of Ibadan, Nigeria with an honours degree in English. Later on in 1971, he attended the Radio Netherlands Training Center in Hilversum, Holland in 1971 and received a certificate in Television Production.〔
