Sotayo: I’ve been with my husband for seven years

By Gbenga Bada

 

The interesting thing is I have been with my husband for seven years although we got married not long ago but not this year,” Nollywood actress and entrepreneur, Tayo Sobola aka Sotayo, recently opened up in a recent chat.

The 35-year-old movie producer further noted that she loves to keep her private life very private from the public. “I have been married long before I decided to release the pictures of my marital status on social media. I am one who likes my life very private. I’m sorry I won’t be divulging more on his personality other than he’s my husband and we are married.”

The fashion designer and CEO of Clean Stitches also expressed that she doesn’t have a fixed fee as an actress. Sotayo claimed that the dynamics of the Nigerian film industry – especially films with Yoruba as its main language – is such that it becomes impossible for her to have a fixed fee. “I can’t say I have a fixed fee because I can play a character for someone for as much as N10 million and go and play another character in another film for N200,000 and sometimes for as low as no charges.”

Revealing her new designs from her fashion store, Sotayo revealed that the designs are inspired by her comfortability. She admitted that many of her clients actually patronise her store and designs because of the love they have for her as a popular Nigerian actress. “ I will say many of the clients are actually buying me because most times they tend to buy clothes that they see me wear on social media. For instance, if I wear material and it’s white and I write there that this material and clothing is also available in different colours. They will insist that unless they see me in those other colours, they will only buy the colour they have seen me wear. So, it’s more like they are buying me.”

Sotayo also announced that she’s opening an Abuja branch of her Clean Stitches store.

The ‘Bella’ star said she sees Abuja as her second home and because she has a lot of clients – just as she has in Lagos – she has decided to open a store in the Federal Capital City. She also hinted that she will be shuttling between Abuja and Lagos as well as other parts of the world.

Sotayo has produced over 10 films that include Corper Jide, Ojuloge Obirin, and Bella. She has also featured in several features and won awards for her acting abilities.

Edo Museum of West African Art

The Benin Kingdom is known for its arts, many of which are scattered in museums around the world. The Edo State government’s decision to establish the museum of West African art will further the state’s image, writes Robert Egbe   On Friday, November 13, Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki announced a post-COVID-19 recovery plan to strengthen the public sector. But perhaps the most interesting component of his proposal was the announcement of a new partnership that seeks to return Edo State to its competitive advantage many centuries ago, and establish the Edo Museum of West African Art (EMOWAA). It is a fact that the Benin kingdom was one of the most powerful and creative kingdoms in Africa, with its art and craftmanship so globally acknowledged and renowned that European explorers marvelled at the level of sophistication of the art and culture emanating from this kingdom. Very few would argue with the fact that at some point in its history, this great kingdom was regarded as th...

Our Reporter Borno State Governor, Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, yesterday said Boko Haram fighters lure recruits with as low as N5,000. The governor also reveals how his government sustained the fight against insurgents in the state in the last two years. He made the revelations in his statewide broadcast to commemorate this year’s Democracy Day (June 12, 2021) and his second anniversary in office, stating that “of all Nigeria’s 36 states, none is faced with the level of Borno’s security and by extension, social and economic challenges. According to him: “From day one, we were faced with an acute humanitarian crisis, particularly in northern and some parts of the central senatorial zones. As such, we made it a policy that as governor, I assume the role of chief humanitarian officer for different reasons. “On one hand, it was our duty to deliver help to our fellow citizens that were either internally displaced or taking refuge in neighbouring countries. “On the other hand, there was ...
