Well-known Yoruba actress Bukky Wright has shared her strategy for giving a relationship another opportunity. She also outlined key factors she would evaluate before considering a relationship with any man who expresses interest in her.
In a video that was posted on the official YouTube channel of Oyinmomo TV during an interview, she made it clear that she is ready to give love another chance but that any man who is ready to be in a relationship with her must be ready to love and accept her children too.
In her statement, she said, “I’m very close to my children, and they have always been my best friends and I enjoy been with them. I’m ready to give love another chance, but if a man doesn’t accept my children, we will break up.”
“There are still lots of things I’m looking forward to doing, but I had to take a break for my children,my children called so I had to take a break. You know there’s a time in a woman’s life and the children’s lives where they need you more than ever, my children are abroad so I had to leave everything to go take care of my children.
“Because I’d always tell anybody, you don’t want to leave your children with anybody abroad, especially at a certain age, that’s when they’ll say, ” ‘ You’re not my mum, you can’t talk to me like that, you’re not my dad you can’t tell me that’ , so be there yourself.
“That’s why we’re mothers, sometimes we even have to go for Omugwo, I’ve never heard a man go for Omugwo. If it’s because of what we come back with, have you thought of what we go through?
“Mothers will always be mothers, I’m not faulting any man for being a father, but in Yoruba land we’d say ” ‘ Iya ni iya mi,Baba ni baba gbobo aye, that means my mother is my mother, but a father can be a father to many”.
