Renowned Nollywood actress Bukola Awoyemi, also known as Bukola Arugba, has finally addressed her breakup with actor Damola Olatunji.
Bukola Arugba and actor Damola Olatunji ended their relationship in May 2023. Although the exact reasons for their separation were not disclosed, rumours pointed to infidelity allegations against Olatunji as a possible factor.
During a recent open Q&A session with her fans on her YouTube channel, she revealed that they parted ways “because it wasn’t working” in spite of all her efforts to keep it going.
She said: “My ex is living his life, and we are not fighting. We are co-parenting very well. There are some things deeper than what the eyes can see. He is the father of my twins.
“We went our separate ways because it wasn’t working. I tried my best. I can only speak for myself—I tried my best to make it work, but it just wasn’t working. Please, I am saying this to all my fans: I beg you in God’s name, let sleeping dogs lie.
“We are both doing fine. I wouldn’t want what happened between us in his past relationship with me to affect his new relationship. Please, let the sleeping dog lie.”
