Wale Ogunyemi was born on August 12, 1939 in Osun State, Nigeria.
Wale attended the University of Ibadan in 1967 for a year course in drama.
In 1967 Wale was appointed as a research assistant at Ibadan Institute of African Studies where he later retired. He began his acting career as a seasonal actor with the new western Nigerian television service in the early 1960s. He later worked with Professor Wole Soyinka, a Nobel Laureate and became a foundation member of Soyinka Orisun Theatre. His credible performance made him a choice for the role he played as "The bale" in The Lion and the Jewel and Dende in Kongi's Harvest by professor Wole Soyinka. He also featured in The Beatification Of Area Boy, a play by Wole Soyinka that premiered at the West Yorkshire Playhouse in 1995. He had written and co-scripted several drama before his death in December 2001.
