    Banky W also expressed his enthusiasm at the good news in a post wherein he appreciated his wife’s qualities.

    “Happy birthday to my lady, my love and purpose partner. My world, my wife and baby Mama. I didn’t think it was possible for you to be more beautiful than you already were… but I was wrong,” he wrote.

    “Because you’re not just beautiful, you’re strong. You’re grace and favour personified, and you’re so much more.
    Words cannot properly express how grateful I am for you, how much I love you, or what we’ve been through.

    “I’m thankful that you’re mine and that God made everything beautiful in His time. He turned our tears into triumph, and our loss into laughter. He’s changed our lives forever, here’s to the next (and best) chapter.

    “Nothing I can say or do can top what He gave us. My baby had a baby and he’s everything we prayed for.”

    Adesua wrote:”Anyone that knows Bimbo knows that she’s not always alright but my goodness, we love her just the way she is.
    Very sweet, extremely selfless, unbelievably funny and she ALWAYS ALWAYS has a good one liner that will leave you gagging with laughter.Bimbo, you are talented all the way to your fingertips and toes and I just love…loveeee watching you blossom. I am humbled by your ability to let go and love without reservation. By your ability to be vulnerable and by your ability to make people feel special.
    Your heart is still one of my favourite things about you. It’s a good heart and good hearts are a lil scarce nowadays.
    May this new year bring you clarity, may it bring you favour, may it bring you countless reasons to rejoice, may it bring you closer to God, may it be your best year yet in Jesus name. Amen
    I love you very much and I hope you have an amazing day”.

    As the years passed we’d say hi hi at events and like each other’s posts on the Gram etc but we didn’t get really close till 2019 when we filmed Sugar Rush and we fell in love instantly ??she became my sister aka Aburo miiiii and my Oko miiiii.

    I said earlier that Bimbo likes money but believe me when I tell you that she hardly uses any money she makes for herself.

    Bimbo is an Extremely selfless/ giving person ( she can dash you her car and be taking taxis).

    Bimbo is such a romantic but that don’t mean she won’t give you Gbas Gbos if you mess up.

    Bimbo loves her family to death and it’s so beautiful to see .

    She loves Seafood too much especially Jumbo prawns so please don’t buy her flowers ooo just send her a bouquet of Jumbo prawns.

    She’s very hard working and sometimes I fear she would break down from over working ( she doesn’t function well when resting ??). Bimbo, it’s a new year learn to take breaks jor oko mi.

    I said I’ll tell you a little about her so please let me stop here.

    Bimbo @bimboademoye I love you and I love how you’re blooming everyday. Keep being the special baby ghe that you are and please what are we eating today?”

    You are many things my love…Incredibly talented, unbelievably intelligent, wise beyond your years, generous, compassionate, hardworking, patient, loving, kind, loyal, and so much more
    Thank you for being the human being that you are Bubba. For being my best friend, my biggest cheerleader, my confidant and for being the best husband I could have ever dreamt of having.
    God dey create and he certainly took time to create you.

    I have learnt to be kinder, gentler, more generous through watching you
    I am a better person just by knowing you.
    The lord shield you…remember, he didn’t say the weapons won’t be formed…he said they won’t prosper. May you continue to dwell in the secret place of the most high.

    Anyone that blesses you will be blessed, whomever curses you will be cursed, anyone that digs a pit for you will fall into it,
    Nations shall rise and call you blessed, kings will not sit till you walk into the room. I bless you with the blessings of Abraham, Isaac and Israel. A city set upon a hill cannot be hidden. I declare that your glory will never be hidden.
    Lies are only for a moment but truth will continue forever (proverbs 12:19- NCV) and you my darling, are the truth. I love you longtime. Truly, madly, deeply. “

    According to her “This message is linked to my faith and the God I serve but IT IS FOR EVERYONE|. I remember a time in my life when it seemed like NOTHING was going right and I mean NOTHING. Everything just seemed to suck.

    I was constantly being hurt by people I cared about and was good to, my career…well, I didn’t have one and it wasn’t for lack of trying, people I loved were going through tough times, everything wasn’t going right. It became hard to pray. I’d stay in my house, in bed for daysss. I never talked about it. On so many occassions, I’d cry myself to sleep. I constantly wished i was someone else. I was deeply unhappy”.

  • Adesua Etomi condemns alleged FSARS murder of Kolade Johnson

    Nollywood actress, Adesua Etomi and other well meaning Nigerians have taken to social media to condemn the alleged murder of a young man who has been identified as Kolade Johnson.

    TheNewsGuru reports that Kolade was murdered by FSARS operatives who had reportedly visited his residential area on Sunday afternoon, to arrest one of the boys of a major music producer who was wearing dreadlocks.

    Happenings soon took an extreme turn as the operatives reportedly fired on Kolade, leading to his death before he could receive medical attention.

    The incident happened around Mangoro/Onipetesi community in Lagos State.

    Reacting over the murder of Kolade, Adesua wrote: “I am SO SICK of the abuse of power by SARS. I am SO SICK of a government that turns deaf ears to the cries of it’s people.
    @muhammadubuhari @profosinbajo @akinwunmiambode @jidesanwoolu
    HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE before something is done about this?
    Every other day, we hear stories of how citizens are beaten, killed, robbed, kidnapped by SARS.

    If a tree is producing rotten fruit, CUT IT DOWN.
    This is Kolade. His only crime was watching football. That was all he was doing when a stray bullet hit him yesterday. A bullet fired by a SARS official. They fled the scene btw. So who do we hold responsible?

    He has a son who now has to grow up without a father, all because some irresponsible official was trigger happy.
    P.s I didn’t know Kolade. This could have been anyone. Kola is the face (today) of the many that have gone. Who will it be tomorrow?
    #EndSars #justiceforkola #thishastostop
    Ps: Pls if you have Kolade’s wife’s contact details or his mums contact details, pls send a dm to As of the time of filing this report, there has been no official response from the F-SARS, even as the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Bala Elkana, told our correspondent that the Command will investigate the matter”

  • My wife was worried about me venturing into politics- Banky W

    My wife was worried about me venturing into politics- Banky W

    Olubankole Wellington, a musician and record label owner, has said that his wife was initially worried when he decided to venture into politics.

    The actor, singer, writer and filmmaker is gunning to represent Eti-Osa local government area of Lagos.

    Banky W made this known in a chat with This Day: “When I first had the conversation with my wife, she said she was worried about me getting into politics in Nigeria because it’s dirty and dangerous… and she didn’t want anything to soil me or harm me. I told her that yes she was right. Politics in Nigeria is very dirty and dangerous, but that’s because the good people always avoid it.

     

     

    “So, it will remain dirty and dangerous forever unless people with the right intentions and who want good for Nigeria, start to be a part of the people that are trying to change Nigeria. We complain about it but we never want to get involved. So for me, part of the goal is to inspire other credible individuals in our country to stand up and be the change we so desperately need. “
