Bukky Wright Interview<\/span><\/h2>\nSource:\u00a0Sun News Online<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\nWhat fashion accessories can\u2019t you do without?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Right now as a praying Muslim, my cap comes first, then, my jewelry.<\/p>\nDo you prefer statement jewelry or gold?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0For some reasons including being in Nollywood, I think the event determines what I wear but I love gold and beads too. My shoes and bag are also important.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s your beauty regimen?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0When I tell people my little beauty secrets they sometimes don\u2019t believe me. They think it\u2019s all a joke. But to be candid my body cream is simply Shea butter, what is commonly called ori. It\u2019s so funny. A lot of people find it very difficult to believe, but my major beauty routine is my Shea butter.<\/p>\nWe learnt you are a grandmother and you\u2019re still this ageless, what\u2019s the secret?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0That grand mum thing people are talking about, yes, I\u2019m a grand mum but not biologically. At the same time, I remain very grateful to God for my youthfulness. My first son is 24 and I think it\u2019s just the grace of God. If I say there\u2019s anything I have been doing in particular, I will only be deceiving myself. I see a lot of older people like Arabel, (Sherifah Andu), Magistrate Memunat Folami, Mrs Muraino, and Shade Alesh and when you see these people, you will know what I mean. They still look trendy and these are people I always look up to. I\u2019m very careful with what I apply on my skin and what I eat. I exercise and I try to rest at any opportunity.<\/p>\nCould you elaborate on your diet?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Those days, I loved cold eba and vegetable soup but for some reasons I had to drop it because of my health. It\u2019s not very healthy. Right now, my favourite food is oatmeal. You can make it into porridge and you can make it a swallow; it\u2019s very good to eat with soup and healthy.<\/p>\nYou were quite picky about the roles you played, are you still that way?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0I believe when you get to a certain stage in a particular industry, there are some jobs or roles you don\u2019t want your name to be associated with, so I\u2019m very careful about the movies I appear in and especially the script I take.<\/p>\nWhat are you currently working on?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0I\u2019m working on a couple of projects now. I have always had a fashion line and I now have a recording label and my first artiste happens to be my son, OJ Wright. I just produced him. I\u2019m also a writer and working on a movie right now. We shot one in the US and it\u2019s all US crew i.e. Nigerians in the US. I felt it\u2019s better to shoot with the American crew than taking artistes and all the crew from Nigeria. It only makes a lot of business sense for me to employ people in the states to work for me and we ended up doing a fantastic movie.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s the movie about?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s a movie about women. I\u2019ll just tell people to keep their fingers crossed. It\u2019s titled, \u2018The beast among us.\u2019 Who is the beast? Is it the men among the women? Or the women among the men? It\u2019s the story of a couple who struggled to salvage their relationship. The wife accused the husband of his inability to satisfy her in some respects. Then the husband goes ahead and accuses the wife of being unfaithful, an allegation she denies until the truth was revealed. And things turned around.<\/p>\nHave you ever been part of a scandal in the industry?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0I have been very careful. Somehow, in this industry, it\u2019s not easy for to stay scandal-free, because we are all humans and blood flows in our veins. But at the same time, I have been very careful and God has been by my side.<\/p>\nAre you careful on social media too?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes. I\u2019m very careful about what I post on social media. I post what is needed to be posted and not frivolities. What I don\u2019t have to post I don\u2019t post, especially if it has to do with my private life. It\u2019s my private life and I believe my private life should remain private.<\/p>\nDo you believe in love?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0That happens to be my private life and my personal business, which I would like to keep to myself.
\nBut there\u2019s nothing wrong with you being in love with the right person. Love is a beautiful thing.<\/p>\nWhere do you like to unwind or go on holidays?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Anywhere comfortable, relaxing and motivating. It could be anywhere; I don\u2019t care as far as it has these three things that I have listed.<\/p>\nMarital Crisis<\/strong><\/h2>\nWe gathered that her first marriage\u00a0 was to one Gboyega Amu with whom she had two children. Shortly after separating from Amu due to what she termed irreconcilable differences, she moved into the arms of fellow actor and one time NNPC top shot and current member of the House of Representatives, Rotimi Makinde without officially divorcing Gboyega Amu.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/10\/rotimi2Bmakinde2Bex2Bwife2Bphotos.jpg\")
Makinde<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe union lasted a few years before she moved on in the same fashion and found solace in the arms of society journalist and image maker, Femi Davies.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/10\/femi2Bdavies.jpg\")
Femi Davies<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nBukky and Femi got married at the Akodo Registry in Lagos without still dissolving her early marriages. Her nuptials with Femi Davies followed the same pattern. Did not last up to a year before she also walked away without going to the courts to seek for a divorce, making her the wife of three men.<\/p>\n
Not done with the three and the numerous flings, she later got hitched with renowned music promoter, Bolaji Saheed a.k.a Basia who was then based in Canada. Within a short time, and true to type ,they got married in a hush-hush Islamic Nikkai.<\/p>\n![\"](\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/07\/samdave\/2021\/07\/27\/images-344.jpg\")
Bolaji Saheed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/p>\n
According to news flying about then, she wanted to use Basia as a ticket to her permanent stay in Canada but the man got wise quicker than she expected. Soon enough, following her normal pattern, the marriage crumbled owing to allegations of infidelity, lesbianism and fetish practices.<\/p>\n
As also was the norm, Bukky did not seek dissolution in a law court, meaning that the marriage is still standing.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/07\/samdave\/2021\/07\/27\/images-221.jpg\")
Wale Onitiri<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nNow with her last marriage to Adewale Onitiri, tongues are wagging that Bukky is a bigamist who should have served jail terms if she were to be in a western country.<\/p>\n
Bigamy is a crime in most Western countries, and when it occurs in this context often neither the first nor second spouse is aware of the other.<\/p>\n
According to Nollywood fillers, as at 3 years ago, the actress was accused of being a lesbian, an allegation she later denied.<\/span><\/p>\nVIDEO<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bukky Wright Interview<\/span><\/h2>\nSource:\u00a0Sun News Online<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\nWhat fashion accessories can\u2019t you do without?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Right now as a praying Muslim, my cap comes first, then, my jewelry.<\/p>\nDo you prefer statement jewelry or gold?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0For some reasons including being in Nollywood, I think the event determines what I wear but I love gold and beads too. My shoes and bag are also important.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s your beauty regimen?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0When I tell people my little beauty secrets they sometimes don\u2019t believe me. They think it\u2019s all a joke. But to be candid my body cream is simply Shea butter, what is commonly called ori. It\u2019s so funny. A lot of people find it very difficult to believe, but my major beauty routine is my Shea butter.<\/p>\nWe learnt you are a grandmother and you\u2019re still this ageless, what\u2019s the secret?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0That grand mum thing people are talking about, yes, I\u2019m a grand mum but not biologically. At the same time, I remain very grateful to God for my youthfulness. My first son is 24 and I think it\u2019s just the grace of God. If I say there\u2019s anything I have been doing in particular, I will only be deceiving myself. I see a lot of older people like Arabel, (Sherifah Andu), Magistrate Memunat Folami, Mrs Muraino, and Shade Alesh and when you see these people, you will know what I mean. They still look trendy and these are people I always look up to. I\u2019m very careful with what I apply on my skin and what I eat. I exercise and I try to rest at any opportunity.<\/p>\nCould you elaborate on your diet?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Those days, I loved cold eba and vegetable soup but for some reasons I had to drop it because of my health. It\u2019s not very healthy. Right now, my favourite food is oatmeal. You can make it into porridge and you can make it a swallow; it\u2019s very good to eat with soup and healthy.<\/p>\nYou were quite picky about the roles you played, are you still that way?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0I believe when you get to a certain stage in a particular industry, there are some jobs or roles you don\u2019t want your name to be associated with, so I\u2019m very careful about the movies I appear in and especially the script I take.<\/p>\nWhat are you currently working on?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0I\u2019m working on a couple of projects now. I have always had a fashion line and I now have a recording label and my first artiste happens to be my son, OJ Wright. I just produced him. I\u2019m also a writer and working on a movie right now. We shot one in the US and it\u2019s all US crew i.e. Nigerians in the US. I felt it\u2019s better to shoot with the American crew than taking artistes and all the crew from Nigeria. It only makes a lot of business sense for me to employ people in the states to work for me and we ended up doing a fantastic movie.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s the movie about?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s a movie about women. I\u2019ll just tell people to keep their fingers crossed. It\u2019s titled, \u2018The beast among us.\u2019 Who is the beast? Is it the men among the women? Or the women among the men? It\u2019s the story of a couple who struggled to salvage their relationship. The wife accused the husband of his inability to satisfy her in some respects. Then the husband goes ahead and accuses the wife of being unfaithful, an allegation she denies until the truth was revealed. And things turned around.<\/p>\nHave you ever been part of a scandal in the industry?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0I have been very careful. Somehow, in this industry, it\u2019s not easy for to stay scandal-free, because we are all humans and blood flows in our veins. But at the same time, I have been very careful and God has been by my side.<\/p>\nAre you careful on social media too?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes. I\u2019m very careful about what I post on social media. I post what is needed to be posted and not frivolities. What I don\u2019t have to post I don\u2019t post, especially if it has to do with my private life. It\u2019s my private life and I believe my private life should remain private.<\/p>\nDo you believe in love?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0That happens to be my private life and my personal business, which I would like to keep to myself.
\nBut there\u2019s nothing wrong with you being in love with the right person. Love is a beautiful thing.<\/p>\nWhere do you like to unwind or go on holidays?<\/strong><\/p>\nBukky Wright:<\/strong>\u00a0Anywhere comfortable, relaxing and motivating. It could be anywhere; I don\u2019t care as far as it has these three things that I have listed.<\/p>\nMarital Crisis<\/strong><\/h2>\nWe gathered that her first marriage\u00a0 was to one Gboyega Amu with whom she had two children. Shortly after separating from Amu due to what she termed irreconcilable differences, she moved into the arms of fellow actor and one time NNPC top shot and current member of the House of Representatives, Rotimi Makinde without officially divorcing Gboyega Amu.<\/p>\nMakinde<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe union lasted a few years before she moved on in the same fashion and found solace in the arms of society journalist and image maker, Femi Davies.<\/p>\nFemi Davies<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nBukky and Femi got married at the Akodo Registry in Lagos without still dissolving her early marriages. Her nuptials with Femi Davies followed the same pattern. Did not last up to a year before she also walked away without going to the courts to seek for a divorce, making her the wife of three men.<\/p>\n
Not done with the three and the numerous flings, she later got hitched with renowned music promoter, Bolaji Saheed a.k.a Basia who was then based in Canada. Within a short time, and true to type ,they got married in a hush-hush Islamic Nikkai.<\/p>\nBolaji Saheed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/p>\n
According to news flying about then, she wanted to use Basia as a ticket to her permanent stay in Canada but the man got wise quicker than she expected. Soon enough, following her normal pattern, the marriage crumbled owing to allegations of infidelity, lesbianism and fetish practices.<\/p>\n
As also was the norm, Bukky did not seek dissolution in a law court, meaning that the marriage is still standing.<\/p>\nWale Onitiri<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nNow with her last marriage to Adewale Onitiri, tongues are wagging that Bukky is a bigamist who should have served jail terms if she were to be in a western country.<\/p>\n
Bigamy is a crime in most Western countries, and when it occurs in this context often neither the first nor second spouse is aware of the other.<\/p>\n
According to Nollywood fillers, as at 3 years ago, the actress was accused of being a lesbian, an allegation she later denied.<\/span><\/p>\nVIDEO<\/strong><\/p>\n
