"I believe you just need a few good friends" Adesua Etomi credits ability to keep her engagement under wraps to her intimate inner circle

Talented Nollywood actress, Adesua Etomi graced
the cover of last Sunday Guardian Life. In the
interview, the singer and dancer whose
engagement announcement to RnB singer and
co-star in TWP, Banky W, broke the internet
revealed how she was able to keep the news
under wraps despite being in an industry where
there are barely secrets.



“I’m very particular about my inner circle,"
she said. "You can count my closest
friends on one hand and that’s because I
believe you just need a few good friends, I
am very friendly to everybody else. Also
my family, my mum, those are the people
that keep it all together for me and they
are always there and you can’t beat that"



She also revealed five things people probably did
not know about her.

"I’m left handed. I’m not a fan of
handbags and jewellery. I think Will Smith
is perfect. My mum is a pastor and I sang
in a choir for ten years."

Etomi made her debut into the Nollywood film
industry in 2014 with Knocking on Heaven’s Door
and a year after bagged the Best Actress in a
Drama Award at the 2016 Africa Magic Viewers
Choice Awards for her role in Falling.

In 2017 she went on to become part of the cast
of one of the highest grossing movies in Nigerian
history The Wedding Party (TWP). Prior to that
she had been very much involved in the theatre
scene featuring in plays like Shattered, Anatomy
of a Woman, London Life Lagos Living, Saro 1 and
2 and The Secret Lives Of Baba Segi’s Wives to
mention a few.
