Photos and videos of them in the United Arab Emirates capital have been showing up on social media in recent times.
Many people cannot wait to see the film after Nollywood veteran, Patience Ozokwor was added to the lineup of cast.
Seeing what this has the potential to mean for the ‘marriage’ between Banky W and Adesua Etomi, I put a call through to Banky W. And as I feared, wahala is already happening.
Our conversation is below:
ME: Mister Capable. How far? This is ‘Segun Odejimi. I know you don’t have my number.
BANKY W: Yeah. Been asking around for it. I read the interview you did with Susu. She told me about it and I was initially skeptical but it turned out great. Thank you bro.
ME: Don’t mention. I live for you guys.
BANKY W: Wow! That’s cool of you to say. Susu and I will ensure you get a seat in front at our wedding.
ME: You don’t have to do that. I don’t like being in public eye. But I actually wasn’t referring to just you and Adesua. I live for the whole Nollywood community.
BANKY W: I see. All the same. You have to attend our wedding. [sudden sadness in voice] That’s if it happens…
ME: Why? You’re tired of Adesua already? Or is Don Jazzy guilt tripping you for leaving the Nigerian Bachelors Society just like that?
BANKY W: Nah. It’s Patience Ozokwor.
ME: How?
BANKY W: You know she has been added by the producers of The Wedding Party 2 and she’s actually supposed to play my mother’s elder sister.
ME: Oh… She will be Ireti Doyle’s elder sister in the film?
BANKY W: Yeah. In the film, she’s supposed to try to disrupt my marriage with Adesua. She is going to try to do her best to put us asunder. You know she has played the horrible mother-in-law part in movies for long.
