    Taking to her Instagram story, Adesua expressed her deep frustration and concern that many people fail to grasp the severity of hyperemesis gravidarum. She emphasized that it’s far more than just morning sickness, but a debilitating condition that can drastically impact one’s quality of life, causing weight loss, dehydration, and even hospitalization.

    In her words: “When I talk about the seriousnessof hyperemesis gravidarum, people don’t get it and I hate it. I am grateful for my husband, my doctors, family, and friends who rallied around me.
    It is not an ordinary morning sickness. It is a serious condition that literally affects the quality of your life”.

    Adesua’s personal experience with hyperemesis gravidarum was particularly grueling, as she simultaneously navigated her husband’s cancerous tumor surgery and underwent an emergency C-section. Despite the challenges, she expressed heartfelt gratitude for the unwavering support of her loved ones, medical team, and friends, who rallied around her during her darkest moments.

  • What my wife told me before joining politics – Banky W reveals

    What my wife told me before joining politics – Banky W reveals

    Popular Nigerian musician turned politician, Banky W, has revealed what his wife, Adesua Etomi told him before joining active politics in 2018.

    Banky W said that he joined politics to make changes even though his wife told him ‘you know politics in Nigeria is dirty’.

    The Peoples Democratic Party House of Representatives candidate for Eti-Osa Federal Constituency made this known during an interview on Arise TV’s ‘The Morning Show’ on Wednesday.

    While narrating his passion for a better Nigeria, he said, “I have participated in peaceful protests just like anybody that I know among my peers.

    “But the goal of activism and advocacy is improvement and if you haven’t seen the impact you seek, then that activism is not enough.

    “So, for me, the message started changing from just raising awareness via activism and advocacy to saying we have to start moving from protests to politics.

    “We have to start taking these energies and channeling them toward getting like-minds into the government and using that consensus of like-minds to get a change and that is where my mindset started changing and in 2018 I started feeling like the problem in Nigeria is top-down and the solution is from the bottom up.

    “And I started thinking that if with my education, success, background, audience, following, and voice and I can’t stick my neck out that I can be a part of this system and can bring a solution to the table, who am I waiting for to get involved in the system?

    “So, in 2018, I prayed about it and I informed my wife and what she told me was that ‘you know politics in Nigeria is dirty and I know your heart and I know the system is what it is and I don’t want anything that will soil your hands’ and I told her that the truth of the matter is politics will always be dirty and dangerous until good people start to be intentional about putting like-minds in the system.”
