“Jibola was only my boyfriend”- Actress Binta Mogaji opens up on relationship with Jibola Dabo

Veteran Actress Binta Ayo Mogaji said she used to be in a relationship with fellow veteran, Jibola Dabo and though they have a baby together, they never got married.

Speaking about her love affair with the actor, she said;

“Jibola was only my boyfriend, though we had a baby together before I got married. We never got married to each other. I’m married to a British Psychotherapist named Dr.Victor Ayodele Oduleye”.

When asked how she felt about younger actors enjoying and securing brand endorsements from companies when just a fraction of the older ones benefit from the industry they toiled to grow, she said, 

“That does not exactly bother me. It’s journalists like you that will help us to ask them what disqualifies us from such life-changing opportunities. Maybe we don’t work hard enough, maybe we cannot sleep around and maybe we cannot quite do what the younger ones are doing or they cannot get what they’re getting from the younger ones from us.

At the location where I am now, my director and I were discussing this same matter yesterday. What their criteria are, I don’t know, but I know if you google my name, you would see what I’ve done and the rest.

It’s quite shocking that some people still think you’ve not done enough and that it’s only the new faces that can sell products and services. All well and good, if anybody needs my service, they will call me when the time comes.”
