“I was accused of impregnating another woman,” Damola Olatunji speaks on split with Bukola Arugba

Damola Olatunji, the Nollywood sensation and estranged husband of colleague, Bukola Arugba, didn’t hold back as he dove deep into the wreckage of their broken marriage and the firestorm of allegations that followed.

 

For years, whispers of turmoil and accusations of infidelity plagued the couple, but it all came to a head in 2023. Bukola, in a bombshell announcement through her lawyers, declared that she and Damola were no longer together, dropping the further shocker that they were never actually married but were blessed with twins.

 

Curiosity piqued, actress Biola Adebayo invited Damola onto her talk show, was eager to dig into the juicy details of the scandal and get his side of the story.

 

Damola, seizing the moment, laid bare the tumultuous journey he had endured. He recounted how he navigated the relentless marital scandals that erupted online, steadfastly ignoring the naysayers who seemed hell-bent on provoking him into a public mudslinging match with Bukola.

 

The movie star said he stood firm, chose to shield their children from the toxic spectacle, refusing to let them grow up witnessing their parents’ dirty laundry aired out for the world to see.

 

But it was the allegations of infidelity that truly set the stage ablaze. Damola tackled the most incendiary claim head-on: that he had impregnated another woman, leading to his split with Bukola.

 

With a mix of righteous anger and biting sarcasm, he categorically denied the accusations. He brazenly dared the purported woman and child to step forward and confront him on social media if the claims held any truth.

 

“I want to meet them,” he added, dripping with sarcasm, as he threw down the gauntlet in a challenge that underscored his defiance.
