    “I’m very particular about my inner circle, you can count my closest friends on one hand and that’s because I believe you just needing a few good friends, I am very friendly to everybody else. Also my family, my mum, those are the people that keep it all together for me and they are always there and you can’t beat that” she says.

    Etomi attributed her swift rise in Nollywood to prayer and divine connections. She said her original plan was to stay in Nigeria for three months and head back to the UK.

    “ I didn’t come here thinking I am going to meet this person and meet that person, my strategy was prayer and divine connections. That was what I was going for, I wasn’t trying to look for who was going to help me or give me a handout.The original plan was to stay in Nigeria for three months and head back to the UK but as plans changed she knew she had to hit the ground running, “I knew what I wanted to become and I didn’t know how I wanted to get there but I knew the things I didn’t want to do to get there. I knew there were certain things that were associated with success and that’s preparation, staying prepared, keeping the work at the forefront of everything that I do”

  • Banky W -Adesua Etomi engagement: 3 questions Nigerians are asking after the bombshell announcement

    Banky W -Adesua Etomi engagement: 3 questions Nigerians are asking after the bombshell announcement

    When Banky W and Adesua Etomi announced on Instagram last week that they got engaged in February, a lot of Nigerians thought It was another publicity stunt created to publicize The Wedding Party sequel.

    While some of their fans were happy for them, others couldn’t contain their sadness declaring that Banky W broke their hearts. Now that the celebrity couple are getting ready to exchange vows, we find ourselves asking questions sequel to their bombshell announcement

     

     

    1. Will Adesua take a break from acting?

    Just like Dakore Akande, Mercy Johnson Okojie who took a break from acting in order to raise their kids and focus on the home front,Will Adesua follow their footsteps or dance to her own drumbeats? Only time will tell

     

     

    1. Will they be able to handle the pressures of putting their relationship in the public glare?

    The couple did an exceptional job of shielding their relationship from the public glare. Now that It’s no longer news, will they be able to handle the pressures of being a celebrity couple? Will they succeed in being able to balance their careers and the home-front?

     

    Months back media entrepreneur, Betty Irabor warned celebrities not to expose their marriages on social media. According to her:” Blame social media for most of the marriage breakup we see today. What can usually be settled in private (among the couples) is not given any chance to fix itself. Ladies should lock out social media from their private affairs. Live your marriage behind closed doors. Marriages have issues but most can be worked out but for the meddlesomeness of social media and it’s over sensationalism of lovers tiffs” she said.

     

     

     

    3.How would they handle their rifts?

    No doubt, Banky W and Adesua Etomi are one of the most sought after Nigerian entertainers at the moment. They both played lead roles in the acclaimed movie The Wedding Party and now will be husband and wive.Being in the public glare is no child’s play. Any mishap, misunderstanding and disagreement on their part will be misjudged and misinterpreted by both their fans and the media.

    We have seen celebrity couple in Nigeria wash their dirty linens in the rowdy Nigerian social media space. It’s already been a rough year for celebrity couples In Nigeria. From Tonto Dike, Muma Gee and now Mercy Aigbe , we can count all the duos who have broken up so far. Still, it’s also not hard to find inspiring love stories in Nollywood. As the divorce rate increases, couples like Olu Jacob and Joke Silva , Patrick and Ireti Doyle are proving two people can grow together in marriages.

     

    We wish the Wellingtons the best on their journey to marital bliss
