I can tolerate infidelity – Foluke Daramola-Salako


Popular actress and filmmaker, Foluke Daramola-Salako has said that infidelity may not be the reason she will end a romantic relationship with her partner.

The actress said this while reacting to the controversy trailing her support for the All Progressives Congress even though she’s married to Labour Party Chieftain, Kayode Salako.

SUGGESTION: You can get News updates directly on WhatsApp by clicking “HERE” and joining our group.

In the interview with Saturday Beats, Foluke Daramola-Salako stated that she can deal with infidelity in relationships and marriage, but cannot deal with any form of abuse.

She said:

“The fact that my husband is a chieftain of the Labour Party does not change the fact that we are in a marriage and we respect each other’s opinion and feelings. If someone wants to lord their opinions over me, I would see it as a form of abuse. I can deal with infidelity in relationships and marriage, but I cannot deal with any form of abuse. If my husband had exhibited a domineering nature or I felt like I was in some sort of bondage, the relationship won’t work. But so far, he has been liberal, and it is working for us.

“I studied International Law and Relations in school. I was also a director of socials with the student union at a time. I have always been politically inclined.

“Acting was a means of survival for me, but politics is my first love.”

Oxlade is to pay N5Million over leaked sex tape.

A Lagos High Court fined Nigerian artist Oxlade five million naira for leaking a woman’s sex tape on Snapchat.

SUGGESTION: You can get News updates directly on WhatsApp by clicking “HERE” and joining our group.

Although Oxlade rendered an apology to the woman involved, she filed a suit against the singer seeking N20million damages and a disclosed that Oxlade leaked the sex tape without her consent.

The young woman stated that the act was a gross violation of her fundamental rights to dignity, privacy and freedom from discrimination.

In a judgment of the case by Justice Olalekan Oresanya, he described Oxlade’s actions as “despised, horrendous, distasteful and classless.”

“The action and attitude of the Respondent (Oxlade), who is said to be a celebrity, is despicable, horrendous, distasteful and classless. The Respondent is admonished strongly to act with utmost circumspection in his relationship with fellow humans, especially the opposite sex. “what goes around comes around”. I need not say more,” the judge said.

According to the judge, “The attitude of the Respondent towards the proceeding leaves much to be desired. The Respondent failed to appear in this Court and the only reason given for the Respondent’s absence by his erstwhile counsel was the Celebrity status of the Respondent which to my mind cannot be equated to that of many notable celebrity Artistes in this country who have comported themselves well respectably both within and outside of this country.

After the case was settled, Oxlade was asked to pay damages to the tune of N5million to the claimant in two instalments of N2million and N3million respectively.
