Bukky Wright Speaks On Returning To Nollywood

Nollywood Actress Bukky Wright

Nollywood Actress Bukky Wright has shared her reasons for taking a break from acting and why she decided to return to screens.

The actress, who is currently back, had an interview with Nigerian Tribune sharing some vital information on her return to Nollywood.

Bukky Wright clarified that she had to quit the film business in order to take better care of her kids.

The actress went on to say that she started working as a cyber security expert during her time after she took a break from Nollywood.

According to Bukky Wright: “I just felt like doing something else for myself. I decided to go back to school and, you know, put my hands into something else. I’m happy I did.

Now, I can boast that I’m a cyber security analyst. I’m certified in information security in the US. It felt good to at least try something out and go out of my comfort zone. I’ve always been somebody who would always go out of her comfort zone. I don’t believe in impossibilities.
 
“At the time that I left, I had to leave because my children needed me more. I’m a mother and I would always say that I live for my children. My children needed me and I had to be at their beck call.

You know there is always a time in the life of a mother that your children need you the most. And when they need you the most, you have to show up for them. That was what I did, and I did not want to waste that time doing nothing, career-wise. So, I challenged myself. I challenged my children as well. Sometimes they’re like, ‘Mommy, do you want to be a professor or what?’”
