Women have a distinguished place in African society and their status inside and outside home is always kept at a high pedestal. Arewa Bukola Amos Bello’s ascension in the filmmaking business is exemplified by her hard work, talent, and determination, which earned her a top place in Nigeria’s Nollywood.
Popularly known as Bukky Arewa, the beautiful thespian’s lifestyle demonstrates bravery and fast thinking, some of the qualities that established her competence, earning her instant and regular respect among her colleagues.
An ex-model and entrepreneur par excellence, Bukky Arewa’s rise to social prominence was not devoid of the human’s natural experience of psychological challenge. To demonstrate her determination to succeed in life, Bukky engaged in personal sacrifices, juggling between acting and making family commitments, demonstrating her tenacity and will to achieve despite obstacles.
Her box office hit, Ajitannawo, which officially registered her as a force in Nollywood, depicts a balance between personal sacrifice, strength and resiliency, with the storyline centred on issues related to rural living and discovery within self to fight and defeat life struggles.
Bukky is the type that doesn’t keep close friends. Although, she’s always available, always agreeable, even when it’s to her own detriment, she suspects that not drawing a line sometimes can lead to burnout and resentment.
“I have learnt my lessons. So, I don’t keep close friends,” she declared, while she encourages people to always prioritize their own needs first.
