Why I left acting after I relocated to USA - Actress Bukky Wright

Veteran Nigerian actress and entrepreneur, Oluwabukola Sekinat Ajoke Wright, professionally known as Bukky Wright, has recently shared insights into her time in the United States, highlighting her transition into the technology sector.

In a recent interview, Wright discussed her dual engagement in both technology and entertainment. She stated, "I will be practicing it (tech) simultaneously with entertainment. The fact that I had to deviate totally from entertainment to tech was something many people thought I would not be able to do. I would tell all my mentees that if I can do it, they can do it too."

Reflecting on her time away from Nigeria, Wright expressed a longing for traditional Nigerian cuisine and collaboration with her peers in the film industry. "What I would love to eat again would be proper Naija amala. What I would like to do again would be to act with Nollywood actors," she remarked.

Regarding her return to Nollywood, the actress assured fans of numerous forthcoming projects. She revealed, "I have a lot for fans, including my project—'The Return of Omotara Johnson', which is coming and a whole lot of other things. I am back to stay."

When asked about the secret to her enduring beauty, Wright humorously credited adequate rest, stating, "I don't joke with my beauty sleep."

Bukky Wright's career spans several decades, during which she has made significant contributions to Nigerian cinema. Born on March 31, 1967, in Abeokuta, Nigeria, she earned a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of Lagos. Wright began her acting career in 1996 and has since featured in numerous Nollywood films and television series, including Wale Adenuga's "Super Story." Beyond acting, she is a businesswoman, running the fashion house B Collections and the beauty spa B Wright. In 2014, she ventured into politics, contesting for a seat in the Ogun State House of Assembly under the Social Democratic Party. citeturn0search0
