Bukola Arugba, Damola Olatunji part ways

Nollywood actress Bukola Arugba has officially parted ways with her actor husband Damola Olatunji, whom the actress claimed to never married after eight years of being together, Peoples Gazette can confirm.
“We are solicitors to Ms. Bukola Awoyemi, also known as Arugba, hereinafter referred to as our client and on whose instruction we give this Notice,” Ms Arugba’s lawyer said in a statement of notification.
“Please take NOTE that our client, Bukola Awoyemi and Mr. Damola Olatunji are no longer an item,” a legal statement made available to The Gazette read.
The duo, who are well known faces in mostly Yoruba movies, began their relationship sometime in 2015 and were blessed with a son David and a daughter named Deborah.
They had been able to sustain the union since then but recent alleged cheating scandals on the part of Olatunji apparently ripped the relationship apart.
Meanwhile, actor Olatunji is yet to make any public comments about the situation but Ms Arugba’s lawyer, Samuel Abimbola, in the legal document, said the duo have agreed to jointly cater for the wellbeing and welfare of the two children.
“They have gone their separate ways and this is without any hard feelings or ill will. They have never been married to each other but are blessed with two lovely children (twins).
“They have both agreed to jointly ensure that the wellbeing and welfare of their two children is guaranteed,” the statement added.
