Nigerian R&B singer and entrepreneur Bankole Wellington, popularly known as Banky W, and his wife, actress Adesua Etomi, have announced the arrival of their second child, a baby boy.
Banky W shared the news on Instagram, releasing a heartfelt video that offers a glimpse into his dedication to family life since their new addition.
In the video, Banky W is seen engaging in various household roles — cooking, cleaning, and supporting Adesua.
Reflecting on his family commitment, he said, “But more importantly than that I am a husband and a father. We just had our second child who is an amazing young boy.”
Banky W revealed that he has taken on numerous responsibilities since the baby’s arrival, describing his role as a “chef, housekeeper, nanny, homework teacher, masseuse, and more” — all in service of a supportive partnership.
His post emphasised his commitment to gender equality, saying, “supporting women’s economic power means doing my part in our home and community.”
He expanded on this idea, saying, “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 continued, “Supporting Women’s Economic Power means doing my part in our home.”
Recall Adesua had previously announced her pregnancy on 14 October, and the couple now celebrate becoming a family of four.
Banky W and Adesua, who married in South Africa in November 2017, welcomed their first child, Hazaiah Olusegun Wellington, in 2021.
