Every celebrity’s lust is reducible in the last analysis to a judicious use of trickery. Ask celebrity pundits. Many of them believe that Bankole Wellington a.k.a Banky W, posted his wife’s semi-nude video online to attract internet page views.
This alternative school of thought argued that the hip hop crooner in keeping with widely acceptable celebrity culture, made an intentional mistake by posting a video via Snapchat on the Internet, which revealed the buttocks of his newly wedded wife, Adesua. They urged him to act responsibly, stating that marriage in reality is different from the one he acted out a la “Wedding Party.”
Predictably, Banky W’s video achieved its purpose and he and his wife are trending on the hottest gossip sites. Banky W married Adesua at a high-profile ceremony in Cape Town, South Africa, last Saturday. The wedding received widespread mention on social media, as congratulations poured him for the couple.
With his recent action, it is obvious that Banky W has forgotten ace actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde’s advise to him to avoid living his marriage on social media. Omotola a.k.a Omosexy, was one of those who congratulated the couple. Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde offered them a single advice: Take your relationship away from social media.
But Banky W would rather she said that to the marines. Hence his recent ploy to make his marriage the stuff of trending social gossip. Banky W would want everyone to believe that he erroneously uploaded the video which showed his wife in half nude state but the discerning among Nigerians and his peers know better.
The video is about 10 seconds in length and Banky recorded it to update the world on how much he relished his after-party experience with Adesua. He wrote on the image, “My goodness. #Baad2017 The #AfterParty #MySAExperience.”
He wants the world to believe that he was unconscious of the fact that his bride was dressing up behind him and without a bra on, until moments after he uploaded the video online. The image has already gone viral.
