Nigerian R&B singer and entrepreneur Bankole Wellington, popularly known as Banky W, and his wife, actress Adesua Etomi, have joyfully announced the arrival of their second child, a baby boy. Banky W shared the heartwarming news on Instagram, accompanied by a touching video that highlights his commitment to family life following the new addition.
In the video, Banky W showcases his active involvement in household responsibilities, engaging in cooking, cleaning, and supporting Adesua during this exciting time. Reflecting on his dedication to family, he stated, “But more importantly than that I am a husband and a father. We just had our second child who is an amazing young boy.”
Since the baby’s arrival, Banky W has taken on various roles, referring to himself as a “chef, housekeeper, nanny, homework teacher, masseuse, and more,” emphasizing the importance of a supportive partnership. He passionately expressed his belief in gender equality, saying, “Supporting women’s economic power means doing my part in our home and community.”
He elaborated on his perspective, stating, “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.” He further underscored the importance of doing his part to support women’s empowerment within the family dynamic.
Adesua had previously announced her pregnancy on October 14, and the couple is now celebrating becoming a family of four. Banky W and Adesua, who tied the knot in South Africa in November 2017, welcomed their first child, Hazaiah Olusegun Wellington, in 2021.
