Banky W and Adesua Etomi Welcome Baby Boy Number Two
Nigerian singer and businessman, Bankole Wellington, widely known as Banky W, recently announced the arrival of his second child, a baby boy, with his wife, actress Adesua Etomi.
Known for their strong relationship and mutual support, the couple’s journey as parents has been both private and loving, and this latest addition is no exception.
Banky shared the news on Instagram through a video filled with moments that show his devotion to family life.
In it, he is seen in various hands-on roles around the house — cooking meals, cleaning, and looking after Adesua, who is adjusting to life with their newest family member.
Living on this new chapter, Banky expressed how important it is for him to be present and active at home.
He said that beyond his career as a musician and entrepreneur, being a husband and father holds the greatest value in his life.
He went on to explain how he has embraced his roles as chef, housekeeper, nanny, homework teacher, and even a masseuse, all to ensure that his family feels supported.
Banky describes these roles not as burdens, but as acts of love.
In a message to his followers, Banky W displayed his commitment to gender equality, especially in terms of shared responsibilities at home.
He explained that a true partnership doesn’t divide tasks by percentages, adding that he sees it as a “100-100” effort rather than a “50-50” one.
This perspective, he believes, is essential to supporting not just his wife but also the idea of women’s economic power, which he is passionate about.
Banky expressed that supporting Adesua in this season of their lives has been both a joy and an honour.
Banky W and Adesua Etomi have been beloved public figures in Nigeria, admired for their accomplishments and for how they’ve handled their marriage and family life under the public eye.
Adesua, known for her acclaimed acting career, is equally vocal about her values and dreams for family and career.
The long-awaited trial in the murder case of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur has reached a major development, with Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced to 40 years to life in prison on October 13, 2026.
Davis was convicted of first-degree murder in August 2026 for his role in orchestrating the 1996 killing. Tupac was shot in a drive-by attack in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later.
During the sentencing, the judge addressed Davis, rejecting his claims that he had changed his life and moved on from his past. “Mr. Davis, for three years, I’ve heard you say some variation of the same thing to law enforcement, [in interviews], in your book, and it’s something like, ‘Yeah, I was involved in this, but I’m different. I’ve moved on. I got out of Compton. I’m a grandfather now.’ I’m here to tell you that’s not how this works,” the judge said.
She continued “You don’t get to take a man from his family. You don’t get to take his very life, his whole future from him, and just walk away from it. Especially when that man is Tupac Shakur.
“The world never forgot about him and his death, and neither did Las Vegas. It took us 30 years, but at this time, you are going to face justice for what you did on Sept. 7, 1996.”
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has reflected on how his perception of YouTube movies has changed over the years. The actor recalled that there was a time when he looked down on movies released on YouTube.
However, he now appreciates the opportunities they have provided for his career and joked that he might have struggled financially if he had continued to dismiss them.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on X, Egbuson wrote “Can’t believe I was looking down on YouTube movies at some point. Hunger go don kpai me by now.”
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has advised young people who are still living with their parents not to rush into moving out because of peer pressure.
The singer encouraged young people to focus on their personal circumstances rather than compare their lives with those of others. He noted that there is no need to leave their parents’ homes simply because they want to feel independent.
Sharing his advice, Dakolo said “No hurry, leave your papa house because of peer pressure. Forget all that, ‘I don’t have my freedom here.’”
