Nollywood actress Adesua Etomi-Wellington has shared a lighthearted reflection on her marriage, revealing that her partner embodies qualities she once said she didn’t want.
She opened up on this during a recent interview alongside her husband, Banky W on the Teju Babyface podcast.
According to her, she had strongly expressed a desire not to marry a musician, a politician, or a pastor.
She noted that these three qualities were what she never wanted and prayed to God against.
However, she humorously noted that she ended up with all three in one person, referencing her husband, Banky W, who is known for his music career, involvement in politics, and role as a pastor.
Adesua said …
“Before I met my husband I had a few requirements that I told God very strongly that I did not want. I did not want to marry a musician. I did not want to marry a politician. And I did not want to marry a pastor. But God gave me all three.”
Netizens’ reactions have trailed this …
