 Banky W and Adesua Etomi, one of Nigeria’s most beloved celebrity couples, have announced the arrival of their second child, a baby boy.
Banky W took to social media to share the joyful news of his second child’s arrival and proudly showcased his supportive husband skills, revealing he’s taken on various roles chef, housekeeper, teacher, and masseuse to care for his family, emphasizing his belief that a successful marriage requires a 100-100 effort, not just 50-50.
Banky W emphasized that being a hands-on dad and supportive husband is his responsibility and source of joy, stating that empowering women starts at home. He stressed that by shouldering domestic duties, he’s contributing to gender equality and echoed the sentiment that uplifting women, in turn, uplifts the entire community and world.
He encouraged fellow men to step up and support their partners, while proudly sharing his own personal growth, as he pursues a Master’s degree in Policy Management at Georgetown University, demonstrating his commitment to leading by example and making a positive impact in the world.
“Partnership is 100-100, not 50-50. That means that in this season, I’ve been a chef, housekeeper, nanny, homework teacher, masseuse, and more all as part of my duty as a supportive husband and present father of two. And honestly, I couldn’t be happier.
Supporting Women’s Economic Power means doing my part in our home.
I’m also doing my part in the world – as I earn my Master’s in Policy Management at Georgetown University, I’m keen on advocating for working mothers everywhere.
When we uplift our women, we uplift our world. Gentlemen, kindly do the needful”.
Just two weeks ago, Adesua and Banky W thrilled their fans by revealing they were expecting their second child, sharing stunning maternity photos on Instagram. In a heartfelt joint post, the couple beautifully chronicled their growing family as they wrote “First, we had each other, then we had a son, and now we’re blessed with another on the way.”
Adesua Etomi set the internet ablaze with a breathtaking maternity photo shoot, showcasing her radiant beauty and effortless elegance. She humorously captioned the stunning images, hinting that if acting doesn’t pan out, she’s got a promising fallback career in modeling.
Banky W showered his wife, Adesua, with admiration in the comment section, praising her for glowing through pregnancy with humility and grace.
Prior to revealing the pregnancy, Banky W shared that he and his family had moved abroad as he embarked on a new academic journey, pursuing a Master’s degree in Policy Management at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. He expressed that this new chapter is driven by his commitment to family, faith, and self-discovery, and humbly requested prayers and support.
Adesua Etomi and Banky W tied the knot in 2017 and have since navigated life’s joys and challenges together, including the heartbreaking loss of twins due to miscarriage. However, their love and resilience were rewarded with the arrival of their first child, a baby boy, in 2021, and now, they’re celebrating the addition of their second child.
In 2023, Banky W and Adesua Etomi’s marriage faced public scrutiny amid unverified rumors of infidelity, with allegations suggesting Banky W had been unfaithful and impregnated another woman, reportedly Niyola, a former artist on his record label. The unconfirmed claims also stated that Banky W had allegedly requested a termination of the pregnancy, which the woman supposedly refused, citing previous abortions.
Banky W, addressing his church congregation, emphatically declared that God’s truth prevails over false rumors, alluding to the infidelity allegations. With gratitude, he praised his wife, Adesua, expressing eternal thankfulness to God for her, humorously adding that he often keeps her on lengthy phone calls, underscoring their strong bond and solidarity amidst adversity.
