Grace
Amah
Petit but beautiful best describes this cross-over actress, who acts in both
English and Yoruba films. Grace is a good interpreter of movie scripts and if
information at our disposal is anything to go by, she also knows how to
interpret the script of putting spanner in the wheels of married families in
real life.
Her major issue started when she became pregnant and she could not disclose the
identity of the father of her child. Information, however, was that the
light-skinned actress might have been plotting her way to breaking a happy home
when she chose to conceive and have a baby for a man who is already married
with four kids, against her claim that the man is in London.
Those in the know argue that the man is actually working with the National
Assembly in the country’s capital city of Abuja and that she chose to hide
his identity because she had not perfected her skills of winning over the man
to the extent that he would divorce his wife for her. This revelation has
finally initiated the innocent looking Grace to the league actresses who are
skilled in wreaking havoc on marriages.
Faithia Balogun
After separating from estranged hubby, Saheed Balogun, beautiful mother of two,
Faithia Balogun was rumoured to have dated several men, in the bid to sustain
her career in the movie world. After the break-up many thought she would quit
acting because she came into the entertainment industry through Walata – Saheed
Balogun. She was alleged to be sleeping with movie marketer and Corporate
Pictures boss, Alhaji Razak Abdullahi and had on several occasions fought with
other actresses because the man spent on her with reckless abandon. The fact
that this man was legally married aided the affair because she wasn’t ready to
settle down with another man after her break-up.
Couple of weeks back she was sighted with another Nollywood actor cum producer,
Goriola Hassan, the estranged husband of big-eyed actress, Ayo Adesanya in an
odd location and rumour mongers went to town with different stories regarding
this alliance. Recall the relationship between Goriola and Ayo crashed after
she accused Goriola of battering her, and many say Faithia has not missed the
beating she received from her erstwhile husband, because Goriola also has
passion for battering women.
Her relationship with her husband of many years actually collapsed because of
the allegation of acts of infidelity leveled against her. She succeeded in
dating baritone-voiced Nollywood actor, Funsho Adeolu who is legally married to
his Akwa-Ibom wife and tall and good-looking Globacom ambassador, Odunlade
Adekola while she was married.
Lola
Alao
Many see this actress as the leader of Yoruba actresses in the industry. Lola
Alao it was who linked other actresses to Oshodi big boy and treasurer of the Lagos branch of National Union of
Road Transport Workers (NURTW), MC Oluomo, who was at a time linked with
another actress, Tayo Odueke, popularly called Sikiratu Sindodo.
In fact it was Lola who influenced their separation. Apart from joining and
separating lovers which Lola is known for, she has also got herself into
playing lead role in the business of breaking homes. She was at a time said to
be pregnant for one Biodun Bodunrin, a Holland-based Nigerian who is married
with kids.
Though she came out to refute the claim, industry watchers say she actually had
something with the man that nearly tore apart his marriage. Another of such was
her relationship with Gbenga Bankole, popularly called Gbenga Astoria, of the
Astoria Catering World.
Gbenga who is happily married tried his best to keep the affair secret but was
forced to pull out of the affair when he realized Lola wanted more than a
secret relationship and this was about to cause crisis in his marriage. She was
also at a time said to be having it good with a tall dark-skinned producer in
the industry who goes by the name Ameen, even when she was aware that he was
married. Quite interestingly, Lola plays the lead character when the script is
on dating married men.
Taiwo Aromokun
She is one of the newest faces in Nollywood and she has carved a niche for
herself in the entertainment industry, being the hottest face in the Abeokuta movie setting. But the fact
that she is new in the movie world has not been a hindrance to her. Taiwo
Aromokun who has featured in several Nollywood flicks was allegedly warming
Odunlade Adekola’s bed, which explains why she is so favoured with roles from
him.
She is also said to be enjoying the attention of National Union of Road
Transport Workers (NURTW) big shot, Musiliu Akinsanya popularly called MC
Oluomo. Although when the affair started remains unclear, busybodies say it has
been happening for a while. She is gaining so much from MC Oluomo, who is seen
as an ATM machine. She has been sighted on several occasions with him, and they
were seen holding hands during Bisi Ibidapo-Obe’s mom’s birthday bash.
Uche Iwuji
It is no news that this light-skinned graduate of creative arts from the University of Lagos may be one actress that is
wayward. Her nude picture while a student at the University of Lagos speaks volume, and her
lifestyle in the make-believe industry is also nothing but controversial. It is
therefore no surprise that Uche has been fingered in many reports as one who
sees nothing bad in having relationships with married men. News was rife
recently that Uche may have terminated a 19-week pregnancy only for her to come
out to clear the air over the issue, stating that it was meant to be a surprise
to all as she was pregnant for her lover and that she had a miscarriage rather
than abortion.
It was however confirmed that Uche was actually pregnant for one Raphael, a
Nigerian based in Spain who incidentally is married
to another woman over there. The plan, according to a close source, was for
Raphael to find a way of divorcing his wife who is a European citizen, and
marry Uche who met the guy sometime in 2010 and has always been in his company
anytime he’s around, not minding that he was married since she was aware of the
plan to divorce the first wife for her.
Funke Adesiyan
She generated a lot controversy when she was seen with Saheed Balogun. Learnt
she had been warming the bed of the Omojaiyejaiyeproducer before his marriage
with his estranged wife crumbled and everybody had thought the she would
succeed in sealing the sizzling relationship with marriage. But when she got
the beating of her life from Saheed, she quickly ran for her dear life as it
became clear to her that Saheed could never change.
She was also sighted with former governor of Kano State who also contested for the
presidential post, Ibrahim Shekarau though she refuted the tale of a
relationship with him. Dark-skinned Funke is also rumoured to have dated Sati
Rahmon.
Anita Joseph
This beautiful actress may have parted ways with her former lifestyle of
controversy, but as the saying goes, “If a sculptor decides he’s not carving
again, the ones he had carved will remain forever”, aptly fits this sexy
actress who may not have been privileged to destroy marriages but has played
her part in tearing apart some relationships.
Anita was said to have played a part in the break-up of the relationship of
another sultry actress, Empress Njamah with her then music star boyfriend
Timaya. Anita, in an interview at that time said that she was having an affair
with the musician and this statement might have been the beginning of the end
of the whole thing. She also played a prominent role in the separation of
another actress, Ebube Nwagbo from yet another musician, KC of the KC Presh
fame.
Despite her knowledge that Ebube was having an affair with KC, Anita decided to
join the party as she also began a relationship with the music act. Though she
later opted out of the relationship, the affair has been responsible for the
disaffection between the two actresses up till now.
Benita
Nzeribe
She might have gone out of circulation in the make-believe industry as she
hardly features in movies of late, but beautiful Benita will have her name
written in gold in the book of those who have dated married men and may still
be doing it. Just like her colleagues in the movie industry, many men will do
anything to have her, and to compound matters for her, she is as beautiful
naturally as she is onscreen, which must have been the reason her name comes up
from time to time as one of the actresses men would do anything to go out with.
And many of her suitors, we are informed, are married men.
Though she has not been particularly linked to any home that has been broken,
she came close to doing that when the wife of a guy she was dating at a time
got wind of the affair. This forced the wife to confront her husband, who
quickly denied knowing Benita aside watching her on screen. She had to
hurriedly quit the affair.
Bisi Komolafe
She took the Yoruba movie industry by storm. Coming from Odunfa Caucus, a group
headed by Yinka Quadri and Taiwo Hassan popularly called Ogogo, it took little
or no time for Bisi to shoot to limelight, and her emergence brought about her
association with controversies.
She was first said to be warming the bed of Yinka Quardri. This relationship
went on for some time even with her full knowledge that the man is married with
kids almost her age before she finally she decided to end it and switch to
another married man, Olasco, who is one of the Yoruba film marketers. Recently
Bisi, who had previously not been successful in perfecting the art of
destroying marriages, may at last have.
It was in the news that she got engaged last December to one Babatunde
Ijaodola, a father of two – a boy and a girl. Bisi was said have been dating
the guy who got married to his heartthrob Niniola in 2007 and relocated to Canada with their two kids.
Problem started when Tunde met Bisi on the pretext of friendship only for him
to decide years after to end his marriage to his wife and in place take Bisi as
wife.
A close source said he has started divorce proceedings against his wife and the
once happy home is now on the verge of collapse. And it is known that the whole
issue started after Tunde met Bisi.
Bukky Wright
Born Oluwabukola Ajoke Asake Wright, her beautiful looks have garnered her
sustained attention from men from different walks of life. One of the talented
thespians in Nollywood, Bukky Wright has created so many controversies both in
the entertainment circle and the real world. She is one of the most beautiful
faces in Nollywood. Busybodies say she has even caused commotion among men who
wanted to date her, through diabolical means. Recently the media was agog over
her dating more than four men. She has created havoc in several marriages as
most of the men she has dated in her entire life are married men.
A couple of years ago, there was a controversy between light-skinned Bukky
Wright and another Nollywood actress, Fathia Balogun over a movie marketer,
Alhaji Abdulrazak Abdullahi, the Corporate Pictures boss. This we learnt
created friction between these two actresses which is still subsisting.
Following that was the affair she had with one of her colleagues in the movie
world who is now member of the House of Representatives, Rotimi Makinde. We
learnt she created disarray in his marriage of many years.
She also succeeded in breaking Bolaji Basia’s home. With the intention of
securing a green card through him, she used all the available means within her
reach and at last she succeeded in tying him down. Even as her first aim of
securing the green card was defeated, the marriage didn’t stand the test of
time; it crumbled. Early this year she succeeded in tying the marital knot with
another London big boy, Wale Onitiri, which she kept away
from the media.
FUNKE AKINDELE
Talented thespian cum producer Funke Akindele, popularly called “Jennifer”, is
one of the most sought after babes in the movie world. A couple of years ago
the “Omo Ghetto” producer was alleged to have brought havoc to the home of
fellow Nollywood actor whose father’s name is also synonymous with acting.
Though we can’t picture where it all started from, we gathered that both
thespians were on various occasions sighted at odd hours at different hotels.
But Funke denied it.
No sooner had the affair started than we learnt she conceived for the
barrister-turned-actor, and we gathered the wife who bore three lovely kids for
this dark-skinned movie producer had to move out of their home so Funke could
have easy access to Femi’s heart.
The scenario generated a whole lot of controversy and different people had
diverse things to say about the affair. While some friends suggested they
should go on with the affair since they were in love with each other, others
had contrary opinion. But what we can grab in this whole issue is that the
dark-skinned actress succeeded in ousting the wife from home.
Former Association of Nigerian Theatre Act Practitioners (ANTP) president, who
happens to be the father of the actor, was said to have settled the matter and
nothing was heard about the two lovebirds again. Busybodies also said she has
also dated one of the Super Eagles defenders who is a left footer, though it
crashed no sooner than it started. She is still very single at the moment but
she has not let this to weigh her down.
Ibinabo
Fiberisima
Ex-beauty queen cum actress, Ibinabo Fiberisima is the mother of five kids for
different men. The light-skinned lady who was once arrested and jailed for
killing a medical doctor while driving, bore a daughter for Nollywood actor and
producer Fred Amata, though the relationship collapsed soon after it started.
What still remains a puzzle to many is how and when the relationship started in
the first place as they were rarely together. They were so discreet about it
until the divorce between Fred and Agatha Amata came to the open..
We recall the marriage between Fred and the “Inside-out” presenter Agatha
collapsed due to irreconcilable differences after she bore him two lovely kids.
And Ibinabo claims the affair started after the break-up. Busybodies are
however claiming the sizzling relationship had been on between these two
lovebirds before the separation between husband and wife.
INI EDO.
This dark-skinned Akwa
Ibom-born screen goddess has made her mark in the Nigerian movie industry and
is among the foremost actresses who have become the nightmare of many married
couples. Though she is now married, many women are still skeptical of her repentance,
as they still see her as a threat. When she was still single she was reported
to have got herself entangled with married men but the biggest of them all was
when she entered into a relationship with a married man which eventually led to
the dissolution of the marriage and the man deciding to marry her instead.
Ini, as her friends call her, is said to be a lady who would get any man she
desired. She settled for Philips Ehiagwina, an America-based Nigerian. This
resulted in Philips divorcing his wife, Ruth Okoro who had sacrificed so much
for him. Philips marriage to Ini means Ruth’s once happy home has been
destroyed.
@global news mag
Ireti Osayemi
Heavily built Ireti Osayemi is the wife of actor and movie director, Bankole
Adeoye popularly called Banky Adeoye. Ireti was said to have dragged Banky
Adeoye to the registry even though Banky had another woman who bore him
children. Ireti Osayemi Adeoye who got into acting through one of Wale
Adenuga’s soaps, Super Story, had been dating Bankole Adeoye whom we learnt had
a dutiful wife at home until she surfaced. All that is history now because
Shaki, the name she got from Funke Akindele’s block buster Jenifa succeeded in
ousting the lady from Banky’s home. She is now the legal wife of Banky Adeoye.
Mercy Johnson
Her wedding was one of the most talked about in year 2011, not because of the
way it was planned or the amount of money she spent towards making the ceremony
a huge success but the controversy it generated.
It all started like a dream. In the heat of the preparation for her white
wedding, a lady, Lovely Okojie surfaced to declare that Mercy was planning to
get married to her husband of many years. In the face of the controversy, Mercy
and Prince Odionese, the groom, quickly secured a divorce and all the wedding
proceedings went ahead as planned. She got married on the 27th of August 2011 but amid tight security. Several people were
prevented from coming to the venue because Lovely threatened to disrupt the
ceremony.
Prior to the wedding scandal, this sexy thespian had been labeled with
different allegations. Rumour has it that Mercy is in love with traditional
juju medicine, that she uses it for men that come her way, most especially the
married ones. She was alleged to have aborted a pregnancy for a man called Obi,
and had a sizzling romance with Ibrahim Damuje who people believe has many
skeletons in his closet. She was also accused of destroying the marriage of a
movie marketer named Victor, who abandoned his wife so Mercy could have easy
access to his heart.
Whilst she was staying with fellow Nollywood actress cum presenter, Trisia
Asiegbe, another controversy ensued between them because Mercy was alleged to
have collected a huge amount of money from Tunde Akinyera, personal assistant
to the chairman of telecommunication giants in Nigeria, Globacom, Dr. Mike
Adenuga. This got Trishia infuriated because she was at the same time warming
another man’s bed in Park View Estate.
Mosun Filani
Mosun Filani is one of the most sought-after actresses in Nollywood. She
started acting within Abeokuta and before we knew it, she
sought greener pastures in Lagos, where she was welcomed
because of her talent. She has featured in different Nollywood flicks; she
produced the movie titled Iku Ewa that got four awards and 11 nominations. This
Ikole-Ekiti-born babe who got married weeks back was allegedly snatching other
women’s husbands. She did a secret traditional marriage with Kayode Oduyoye,
CEO of Shalom Group early this month in Ibadan. The man’s wife was said to
have left for South Africa with her kids when the
marriage became unbearable for her.
Before tying the knot a couple of weeks back, she was accused to have dated
Nollywood actor, producer and director Muyiwa Ademola, whose marriage was still
very fresh, Globacom ambassador Odunlade Adekola was not left out. She caused a
strain between these good actors because she was simultaneously dating them,
and when they got wind of it, they asked her to choose between them. She was
said to have chosen the producer of Iyo Aye (Salt of the World), Muyiwa and all
movie roles from Abeokuta ceased coming.
After this she relocated to Ibadan for movie roles but
Muyiwa’s wife got wind of the illicit affair and it became a mess between her
and Muyiwa’s wife. She eventually left Ibadan with shame. She is rarely
seen in movies now.
Nadia Buhari
Though she is not of Nigerian descent, mullato and beautiful Nadia cut her
teeth in the Nigerian movie industry popularly called Nollywood. Many men, we
were informed, have been smitten by the beauty of this Ghana-born actress whose
role interpretation complements her beauty. Just like Delilah, Nadia has from
time been involved with different married men one of which is the owner of
Orange Drugs, makers of Delta Soap which Nadia was at a time modeling for.
It was while with the company that she met ex-Miss Delta Soap, Steph-Nora
Anusionwu and in the process got to know her husband Joseph Tomowu, a
politician and oil and gas mogul and before one could say “Nadia”, she was in
his bed, and they’ve been enjoying each other’s company.
Steph-Nora was said to have got wind of the affair and reported it to Tony
Ezenna, the owner of the company that brought the two together. It is still
unknown if the company acted based on Nadia snatching the husband of Steph-Nora
or for cheating on their boss –who she was also dating – but her contract with
the company was terminated.
Nkiru Sylvanus
Against all odds, she has been winning contracts and endorsements she may after
all not be deserving of. Light-skinned Nkiru, we can say, has had more than a
fair share of controversies, which climaxed recently with her closeness to
Rochas Okorocha. She was suspected to be dating the businessman who later
became the governor of Imo State.
The suspicion got to a peak when she decided to relocate from her Enugu base to Abuja where Rochas was living in
order to make him accessible to her at short notice; and when he later became
the governor of his state she expectedly moved to the East. Nkiru was later
appointed as a special adviser to the governor, a decision which nearly caused
crisis between the governor and his wife but for the intervention of some
elders who prevailed on her to reject the appointment.
Nkiru who has remained single even when her peers are either married or living
as single parents, we were told, has been using her affair with the governor to
win many things and she may be dreaming of one day becoming the wife of the man
with the title of “Owelle” at the expense of his immediate family.
OBY
EDOZIEN
Newly married Oby has had her share of being responsible for destroying
relationships. The most recent is that of Nigerian musician Alex Ohas, who was
popularly called Alex O during his heyday in the Nigerian music industry. She
eventually tied the knot with Alex recently. It was revealed that Alex was
married to Fathima Aboobaker, a South African lady of Asian background, years
back. The story is that Alex met Fathima in Singapore more than 10 years ago when
he was still struggling to make ends meet and she not only stood by him then,
but also assisted him and this moved him to walk her down the aisle in 2001.
The union was blessed with a child. Oby, however, stepped into the scene when
Alex travelled on what appeared to be a sincere business trip to Nigeria, where he met the actress
who hooked him, to the detriment of his family in South Africa. Months later, a secret
wedding was organized for the two and that eventually exposed the plot and she
came out to express her side of the story.
Though many would want to absolve Oby Edozen of any wrong doing as some of her
associates claim she was totally in the dark about the whole thing, it is
certain she knew that Alex was married but would rather marry him out of her
desperation. Oby, it could be recalled, had a quarrel with her closest pal
Tricia Esiegbe at a time. Sources close to the two claim the disagreement was
because Tricia was suspecting her pal of making advances at her man and the
ensuing melee made headlines then.
Though the two reconciled after Tricia’s wedding to her man, the pain suffered
by Oby made her desperate, which was the reason she stuck to her guns to go
ahead with her wedding to Alex, even when it became obvious she would be
breaking a once happy woman’s home.
Iyabo Ojo
Many would want to say she is fashionable but it is a fact that she’s fashion
crazy. Iyabo was among the first set of Yoruba actresses to use contact lens
and artificial eye lashes. She is known for her exploits and role
interpretation in the industry, which means she gets roles frequently. Although
she already has kids from a previous marriage, she is still desired by many men
and that may have informed why both married and single men within and outside
the movie circle are always gunning for her. Iyabo has also had her fair share
of people who would dump their wives for her.
There was an incident where an actor in the industry whom Iyabo left for
another was bitter and was said to have shed tears over his lost love. The
actor who has two other brothers in the make-believe industry was even said to
have walked up to Iyabo to declare that he would chase his wife out of their
home only if she would agree to move in. But Iyabo, who has since accepted him
back, would not do that. She said she would rather live outside so the wives
would not be looking at her as a threat to their happy marriages.
Tayo Odueke
(Sikiratu Sindodo)
Popular skin-toning Nollywood actress, Tayo Odueke (popularly called Sikiratu
Sindodo – a name she got from one of the movies she featured in), was one of
the most sought-after actresses in Nollywood before the sickness that almost
claimed her life. Though she is back on her feet now and doing good, that is
not the news for today.
This University of Lagos alumnus was alleged to have dated popular Nollywood
actor cum producer, Kunle Afod when he just got married, though the affair
crumbled like a pack of badly arranged cards because she was not all that
dedicated to it. No sooner had the illicit relationship crashed than popular
National Union of Road Transport Worker (NURTW) big boy, Musiliu Akinsanya
popularly called MC Oluomo swept her off her feet. She was bought a Murano Jeep
and this caused a lot of hullabaloo between Sikiratu and the man’s wives, who
were scared because she was being over-pampered even as a concubine. Because of
her closeness to MC Oluomo, other wives were ignored and this got them
infuriated. It was rumoured she had more than two miscarriages; MC Oluomo’s
wives tried to use this as a reason to force her to leave their hubby, but she
refused. However, those in the know believe this could have been part of her
reason for leaving the NURTW big shot as she couldn’t conceive.
