Nollywood actress Bukky Wright has shared her reasons for taking a break from acting and why she decided to return to screens.

The actress, who is currently back, had an interview with Nigerian Tribune sharing some vital information on her return to Nollywood.

Bukky Wright clarified that she had to quit the film business in order to take better care for her kids.

The actress went on to say that she started working as a cyber security expert during her time after she took a break from Nollywood.

[b]I left screens in 2016 to cater to my children, I‘m back now better than ever —Bukky Wright

According to Bukky Wright:

“I just felt like doing something else for myself. I decided to go back to school and, you know, put my hands into something else. I’m happy I did. Now, I can boast that I’m a cyber security analyst. I’m certified in information security in the US. It felt good to at least try something out and go out of my comfort zone. I’ve always been somebody who would always go out of her comfort zone. I don’t believe in impossibilities.

“At the time that I left, I had to leave because my children needed me more. I’m a mother and I would always say that I live for my children. My children needed me and I had to be at their beck call. You know there is always a time in the life of a mother that your children need you the most. And when they need you the most, you have to show up for them. That was what I did, and I did not want to waste that time doing nothing, career-wise. So, I challenged myself. I challenged my children as well. Sometimes they’re like, ‘Mommy, do you want to be a professor or what?’”
Speaking on why she’s returned to the industry, Bukky Wright said:

“I feel there’s still something in me to give to the entertainment industry in Nigeria. It actually hits to the core of my fans anytime I post anything on Instagram, they’ll be like, ‘You need to come back’. My sons also kept encouraging me, they said, ‘It’s time you go back again and do something in the movie industry in Nigeria.’ Right now, I’m here for Nora Awolowo. She brought me in for ‘Red Circle’.

“It feels really good and I’m so happy about the warm welcome from everybody. I’m happy to be back. Did I miss the industry? Yes, I did.”

If you knew what it is to be a Cybersecurity Analyst (most especially a certified one in the US), you wouldn’t say this

Stop fooling yourself. What she studied is Information Security, not Cyber Security.

So, she willingly left a big fish for a small one?

You are the one who doesn't know what you are saying. What she studied is Information Security, not Cyber Security.

Family over anything and you've made the right decision... Sadly, you cannot be the same 'Shade Blade' we used to know.

Olodo... Illiteracy is a disease. No wonder your life is the way it is.


Information security protects a variety of types of information. This includes digital data, physical records, and intellectual property (IP). Cybersecurity is a subfield of information security that protects computer systems and networks from cyberattacks.

You should be the one to read again. A simple Google search will tell you the difference.

Ignore that unproductive - half baked nuisance

When you people see that there's more money in Nollywood, you'll know be cooking up excuses for leaving and now back!

The industry has moved on..... Ask Doris Simon if she has found her ground after comeback

This is why I so much respect Fatia balogun for her consistency!

Anti Bukky Wright; you're right to have left nollyhood and that was a good decision but you coming back to nollynood is a WRONG decision. That makes you 'Bukky Wrong'

Used to have a crush on her back in the days.

You're welcome back. I still love you.

Everyone want to make a comeback. Even Lis Benson, Oge Okorie, RmD and Omotola etc, are all back.

Bukky Wright, if that is true, you are a good mother.

Passion and she can still work remotely from Nigeria, earning her dollars.

I will still relocate back to Nigeria in the future from the UK and still earn in Pounds while working remotely from Nigeria, it is not a downgrade but being location independent.

Bukky Wright, if that is true, you are a good mother and not those selfish ones

Hmmm
