82 year old veteran actress, Bukky Ajayi, who has been away from the movie scene on health grounds, was on June 15, paid a courtesy visit by a couple of entertainers lead by Joke Silva.
According to reports, the visit is part of a noble initiative to celebrate industry veterans.
It will be recalled that the actress gave an emotional speech at the 2016 Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards (AMVCA), when she was presented with the ‘Industry Merit Award’ alongside Sadiq Daba: both are veterans of repute.
Posting the picture of the visit on her Instagram page, Joke Silva wrote; “TAA with the gorgeous unassuming super talented mama Bukky Ajayi. We went down memory lane…we laughed, we cried and we prayed. Well done Mildred Okwo for bringing all the generations together…it’s the only way we can grow.”
Veteran actress, Zainab Bukky Ajayi, who loves what she does for a living with passion, converted to Islam in the early eighties and chose the name Zainab. Her love for the theatre started as a young girl when her father used to take her to the cinemas.
