Bukky & Ireti<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nIreti Osayemi is resourceful and well informed .She has won a number of awards one of which is an Afrohollywood Award. She appreciates her husband for a lot of reasons but chiefly, because he doesn\u2019t welcome rumor peddlers who have one tale or the other about her.The mother of two is full of hope for the future. So why is it that she seems to be acting Yoruba movies only? Read all about it in this interview she granted Samuel Olatunji.Excerpts:
\nThere is this tendency or is it assumption that Nollywood marriages don\u2019t last. How have you been able to sustain yours?<\/strong>
\nIt\u2019s been the grace of God . That\u2019s all I can say
\nYou are not doing anything special?<\/strong>
\nI guess those whose marriages don\u2019t work-out do not pray for it to happen that way . It\u2019s just the grace of God. We all wish that our marriages work-out and we work towards it. Sometimes things go wrong along the line. Unexpected things happen that you can\u2019t handle and you need God to intervene . I\u2019m not saying I\u2019m perfect, I\u2019m just saying God has been in control and should be in control.
\n
\nIs the fact that both of you work in the same industry a plus or minus?<\/strong>
\nFor me, it\u2019s a plus. A big plus
\n
\nWhy is it a plus?<\/strong>
\nMy husband understands my job, I don\u2019t have any problem with him. Imagine an actress, a mother, a wife going on location for 5 to 6 days and your husband is at home with the kids ? What will you tell him? That you will be on location for 6 days ? The man is an accountant.What will he think? My husband understands the nature of my job and he has no problem with that.
\n
\nHow do you cope with rumors about you in this industry?<\/strong>
\nLike I tell people, my husband is a don dada in the industry and before they know it, he knows all that its happening and people will have to think twice before peddling any kind of rumor to his hearing, because he knows about the rumor already.
\n
\nIs it because he\u2019s a don dada that you find it difficult to misbehave?<\/strong>
\nNo, that\u2019s not it. This is you, no matter how don dada your husband is, you will still be yourself. Do you understand? That\u2019s just me, people still bring rumor to him but we talk about it and we laugh over it. There was this location I went and he was working around there too and I felt let me go and stay with my husband since I\u2019ve not seen him for two weeks. I left the location for his hotel and at that moment too another actor was leaving the location. He drove out first and I drove like 5mins after him and the next thing was that my husband got a gist that \u201cyour wife just left with another actor and she is going to sleep there\u201d That was even before I heard and it was not up to 24hrs .I actually slept with my husband that night.
\n
\nHas there been any rumor that really got to him, that really shook your marriage?<\/strong>
\nNo, there has never been. If you have been following our marriage very well, you\u2019ll know that there has been no rumor to that effect.
\n
\nLast time I was in your house, you were studying for an exam. Why are you still in school when you already have a career and you already have two children?<\/strong>
\nMy brother, you know you don\u2019t stop learning in life okay ? You have to forge ahead, you don\u2019t become stagnant. You have to look for a way to flow and you get knowledge from wherever you think you can get it . That\u2019s why I\u2019m still schooling. I want to acquire more knowledge. I want to fit into any category, anywhere.
\n
\nWhat are you studying and where?<\/strong>
\nEconomics, at LASU
\n
\nWhat level are you?<\/strong>
\n400 Level
\n
\nSo, after you\u2019re done will you dump acting for a career in banking?<\/strong>
\n(Laughs) No, not at all. I will continue acting.
\n
\nHow do you cope with your children?<\/strong>
\nI guess God has blessed me with wonderful children. Even when I\u2019m not around, they don\u2019t really mind. All they need is to see somebody. It\u2019s God\u2019s favor anyway. You leave some kids for a while and on the second day they are running temperature. I have just been blessed.
\n
\nYou seem to be scandal-proof, except for the rumor making the rounds when you first married your husband. How come you\u2019ve been able to keep a scandal-free sheet?<\/strong>
\nWell, basically, when you don\u2019t tread the lines of scandal, you don\u2019t get scandals. When you walk on a free and safe line, you\u2019ll definitely be free and safe but when you walk on the line of scandals, you definitely have scandals. That\u2019s just it. I don\u2019t go anywhere scandals originate. I don\u2019t do questionable things, I\u2019m just myself.
\n
\nHow did you handle the rumor that you snatched somebody\u2019s husband?<\/strong>
\nWell, in most cases, your conscience will judge. I had no problem with that, because basically, a lot of people didn\u2019t know what was happening .They were just jumping into conclusions. The moment rumors start bothering you, you start living another person\u2019s life. So, that didn\u2019t bother me in anyway because I knew where I was coming from and where I am going and we both knew the initial problem. So we didn\u2019t need to go to the press to explain. We just didn\u2019t let it bother us.
\n
\nAre you happily married?<\/strong>
\nYes, though there are ups and downs . Couples are two different people coming together to be one. So, you don\u2019t expect your husband to become you totally or vice versa. If you really love each other and you have God with you, you will definitely overcome hardship because you understand each other. Couples fight over little issues. Marriages have fallen apart because of toothpaste.
\nThe wife says \u201cwhy are you pressing the toothpaste from the middle? You must be a bush man and her husband will say, maybe I\u2019m a bush man but could you explain how to press the toothpaste? Another husband may say, what do you mean? Who brought you to Lagos that you have the guts to talk to me like that? Are you mad? And a fight ensues. It\u2019s just your level of understanding that matters. Always remember that you cannot be right always.
\n
\nDid you have challenges in getting close and personal with him at the beginning of your relationship?<\/strong>
\nTruly, we were friends from the onset. We were more of friends than a couple. When I\u2019m talking to some people, I sometimes tell them that my husband said this or that and they feel so strange wondering how my husband can say this to me? I tell him a lot of things and he does likewise . That\u2019s why when you talk about me outside and you feel it will get to him,it doesn\u2019t, because he knows it already. I don\u2019t hide anything from him and I guess he has hidden nothing from me.I know that.
\n
\nWhy must you guess, aren\u2019t you sure?<\/strong>
\nNo, I\u2019m very sure he has hidden nothing from me.
\n
\nHow do you feel winning the afrohollywood laurel?<\/strong>
\nWell, I\u2019m very happy. It\u2019s so amazing when you are recognized in your field and somebody is actually telling you that you\u2019re doing well. Not just somebody but a lot of people are saying \u201cwe enjoy watching you do what you do\u201dand they feel for that, you should be given an award. I feel so happy, because it motivates me to move on in the industry that I have improved and that I can do better. I say thank you to the organizers, I say thank you to my fans, I say thank you to my husband and everybody that made it happen.
\n
\nDo you think you deserve the award?<\/strong>
\n(Chuckles) Life is full of opinions. Some might say she doesn\u2019t deserve the award while others may say she deserves it. Lati gba ti alaye ti daye ni iru e ti n sele (It\u2019s been like that since the beginning). You can\u2019t be everybody\u2019s friend, you can\u2019t be everybody\u2019s age mate. It\u2019s normal if everyone doesn\u2019t like you because if everybody loves you, you need to go check yourself.
\n
\nWhy do you avoid your colleagues?<\/strong>
\nThat\u2019s just me. I don\u2019t think there is anybody in the industry who will say \u201cIreti is not my friend\u201d. We are all colleagues and we get along. In most cases, friendship in the industry is sometimes difficult, because this man might even be out for the next twelve months and besides, I\u2019m not the type that keeps so many friends. It\u2019s not as if there is anything wrong with keeping friends. It\u2019s just me.
\n
\nWhat should we expect from you in 2011?<\/strong>
\nWell, like I always say, the best is yet to come, watch out for more from Ireti.
\n
\nWill you be producing your movie by yourself in 2011?<\/strong>
\nYes, by the grace of God.
\n
\nShould we expect another child from you in 2011?<\/strong>
\n(Laughs) Well from my side, I don\u2019t think I am expecting any one now but you never know what God wants to do next. That\u2019s why I am saying from my side. For me, I am not planning for one yet.
\n
\nWas your husband with you in the labor room?<\/strong>
\n(Laughs) He ran away
\n
\nWhy did he run?<\/strong>
\nHe\u2019s very emotional. He doesn\u2019t like seeing another person in pains. So, whenever it\u2019s time, he runs away. It was a better experience when I had my second child, because he couldn\u2019t run but he eventually later did.
\n
\nAfter you came back from the labor room, did he treat you like a queen?<\/strong>
\nLabor room or not, he goes out of his way to make me feel secure.
\n
\nSo how will you spend Christmas?<\/strong>
\nWe are looking forward to spending our Christmas alone.
\n
\nSo, I am not invited?<\/strong>
\nAlone!
\n
\nSo we are expecting another baby in 2011?<\/strong>
\nDon\u2019t bother. It doesn\u2019t lead to babies always.
\n
\nWhat about New Year, where do you plan to spend New Year?<\/strong>
\nWell, it\u2019s normally a family thing and we have some family friends that we spend our New Year with. So that is definitely going to bring us together.
\n
\nWhat was your experience like in Omo Ghetto?<\/strong>
\n(Laughs) That\u2019s another thing entirely. You have to be what you\u2019ve never been in your life.You have to be a ghetto girl.
\n People say love is not kind in Nigeria. Do you share the same sentiment?<\/strong>
\nWell, I don\u2019t know what they mean by in Nigeria because I know men are the same anywhere. I prefer an African man to a white man because a white man can come home and say \u201cI don\u2019t love you anymore\u201d, he doesn\u2019t care if you still love him or not. An African man will still put you into consideration and believe that this woman loves me o, how can I tell her I don\u2019t love her? And he will start fighting himself on the inside and say \u201cI must love this woman, I must not be ungrateful, I must show love\u201d. I see no reason why someone will say love is not kind in Nigeria. Love is not kind everywhere in the world if you are saying love is not kind in Nigeria.
\n
\nPeople say before you meet your prince charming, you would have kissed many frogs. How many frogs did you kiss before you married your prince charming?<\/strong>
\nIn life we all grow. You can\u2019t expect your first boyfriend to be your husband. Then you lack experience, you lack so many things. You don\u2019t even know what life is all about. I have seen so many people that say this is my first love and this is the person I will marry. Believe me , along the line, they will have so many problems because firstly you don\u2019t really know who people are, you don\u2019t know how to tackle different people, you don\u2019t know how to tackle different problems. One of them will have so many problems that one has not seen in life. Along the line, you start feeling like I just should have tried someone else maybe it would have been better. Take it or leave it, you will have different experiences and you choose the right one out of that.
\n
\nWhy is it that your first love doesn\u2019t last?<\/strong>
\nIt doesn\u2019t usually work because one, you are inexperienced. You don\u2019t really know what love is all about . That\u2019s just the simple truth. No matter how old you are, you are still learning. So in most cases the first relationship will not work because one you are still selfish. You still think of me, me, me. You don\u2019t think of the other person and the other person is there as well and is thinking \u201cwhy is she thinking of herself only? She should think of me as well\u201d. You get angry and you know, everything smashes. In most cases, the first relationship doesn\u2019t really work.
\n
\nWhen did you start acting and when did you come into Nollywood?<\/strong>
\nI started acting in 1999 and my brother was into the stage then. One day, he came home and said \u201cthese people you\u2019re crazy about, I know where you can see them\u201d and I was like really? Are you sure I asked , and I was like take me there so we had to sneak out of the house because normally, you are not supposed to get out of the house at that hour of the day. I sneaked out and when I saw them, I was so overwhelmed.
\n
\nWhere was that?<\/strong>
\nThat was Winnings in Surulere. It used to be the happening place and I was like this is unbelievable. Can you imagine, I\u2019m seeing everybody live and direct and I got my first job? So someone was like \u201cwho is this girl? You fit into the role I am looking for\u201d. I have been looking for a girl who will be this, that and I got my first job!
\n
\nWhat job was that and who gave it to you?<\/strong>
\nI can\u2019t remember his surname now, but it was Emeka . He was the production manager.
\n
\nWhy did you switch to the Yoruba genre?<\/strong>
\nIn life, you feel more comfortable where you are more accepted. I was more accepted in the Yoruba movie industry, and more jobs were coming from the Yoruba movie industry. That doesn\u2019t mean I cannot act in English movies. If I get a role in an English movie, I can do it. The thing is that jobs are not really coming from the English sector.
\n
\nDoes your husband negotiate your fees for you?<\/strong>
\nSometimes he does. If it\u2019s coming from him, he does.
\n
\nWhat if it\u2019s coming from you?<\/strong>
\nIf it\u2019s coming from me, sometimes I prefer that he negotiates for me.
\nThere is this stuff I saw online that actresses sleep with a director, producer or marketer to get the job. Is that your experience?<\/strong>
\nWell, like I tell people, it\u2019s what you want that you get. A lot of us are not patient. We want to come into the industry today, make a name and become a star tomorrow. That\u2019s why a lot of actresses get frustrated and leave the industry. A lot of them end up doing a lot of things that they are not happy about. You don\u2019t get into an industry that you virtually know nothing about and you want to become a star tomorrow.
\nIt works nowhere, so patience works a lot. If you think that sleeping with a director or a producer or a marketer will make you a star in a jiffy, you go ahead to sleep with them if you want to,but if you are patient, people will definitely see you. I believe a lot of girls in the industry that are not sleeping with anybody are getting their roles. They are getting jobs and they are getting their jobs done. So for someone to have said that, that means the particular girl must be notorious for doing that.
\n
\nBut have you ever dated a marketer ?<\/strong>
\nNever.
\n
\nBut they have money and they control everything. Don\u2019t they?<\/strong>
\nThey don\u2019t control everything. You can\u2019t say marketers control everything. They don\u2019t shoot films. Films are shot and taken to the marketer. Okay? So you can\u2019t say the marketer controls everything.
\n
\nWhy do Yoruba actresses date marketers?<\/strong>
\nWell, that I don\u2019t know. I\u2019m not dating a marketer and I don\u2019t know those dating marketers.
\n
\nHas it ever crossed your mind that something could happen to your marriage since your husband was married before?<\/strong>
\nWell, every marriage is prone to ups and downs and there is nothing you have seen or heard that will make you say that.
\n
\nYeah?<\/strong>
\nYes. So the moment you think of anything of such, you work against it to make sure it doesn\u2019t happen in your life. That is just it.
\n
\nThank you, but how will you feel if this is a woman\u2019s world without men?<\/strong>
\nA world of women (laughs).
\n
\nYeah\u2026.?<\/strong>
\nThis world will be a world full of selfishness
\n
\nWhy do you say so?<\/strong>
\nWomen are always selfish, we think of ourselves a lot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
