NMC Update: NMC Update: FOLUKE DARAMOLA-SALAKO, Nollywood’s Golden Woman. @foluke_daramola

Tongues may have been wagged, aspersions cast, but the fact still remains that actress Foluke Daramola Salako still remains a thorough breed in the Nigerian Movie Industry when compared with her mates in the industry.
This elegant self styled actress still remains her irrepressible self despite the rumors and negativity surrounding her marriage with the Fasholamania Boss: Rotn. Olukayode Salako. Little wonder; she is the only actress in Nollywood whose husband can muster the courage to publicly defend her as a good wife. This off course has made her stronger and more alert in choosing who her friends are in the future.
Foluke may not have gone where she had intended to go, but I think she has ended up where she needed to be- and that is in the Salako’s family. Don’t blame her though! Because in the words of Mother Teresa: life is an opportunity that we all have to benefit from, a challenge we should all meet and a struggle we should all over come. And vividly Foluke has faced her own life. This great amazon didn’t struggle much at all before she became famous compared to her mates because she is very intelligent and cultured. Her acting came with fame. She became a celebrity suddenly because she was destined for it. She wasn’t crazy for any fame. All she wanted was to berth a passion. And because fame comes in three sides; the good, the bad and the ugly, she has faced all three and has come out stronger.
Recently she said to Mr. Salako; I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul. I carry your heart with me, I carry it anywhere I go and whatever is done by only me is done by your doing, my darling.
And here is the deepest secret nobody knows about Foluke; she is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide, and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart. Let’s give her the chance and allow her to prove us wrong. What we don’t know is that every heart sings a song, every heart becomes a poet at the touch of a lover. And Foluke is no exception-she has become a poet by the touch of Mr. Salako.
This life is what you make of it. Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple. Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you. Who are you to judge the life that I live: I know I am not perfect and I don’t live to be. But before you start pointing fingers…make sure your hands are clean so says Bob Marley. And I think these words are for us. Foluke to me is truly the golden woman of Nollywood.
