Despite this, there are concerns when it comes to her ties with the <a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/yoruba-people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yoruba people<\/a> of western Nigeria, especially because she appears in some Yoruba films and was also given Yoruba names at birth.<\/p>\n<p>Her being part of the Yoruba community is due to the reason that she was born in Lagos State. By the virtue of this, she speaks the language fluently.<\/p>\n<p>While there are chances that she may have some family members that may be of the Yoruba ethnicity, she was previously married to 2 different Yoruba men. She also has a son whose father is from Ogun State.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Who are Clarion Chukwura&#8217;s Parents and Siblings?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The actress&#8217; parents are John Chukwura (father) and Christiana Chukwura (mother).<\/p>\n<p>Her father, Mr. John Chukwura worked as the personnel manager at Sunflag &#8211; a Nigerian Textile mill as well as an accountant before his death in 1975 when the actress was 11.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, her mother was a businesswoman and a business contractor. She led a private life and died in the early 2000s.<\/p>\n<p>Looking more into the actress&#8217; family, she has 4 brothers who keep more private lives.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Her Education<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Growing up in the megacity, the fashionable actress attended Lady Lark nursery school, the same school attended by another Nollywood actress, <a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/liz-benson-biography-and-best-movies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Liz Benson<\/a>.\u00a0 Furthermore, she went to All Saints primary school in Yaba, Lagos state.<\/p>\n<p>She later relocated to Onitsha with her siblings to live with an uncle following the death of her father. There, she attended Queen of Our Rosary College (QRC).<\/p>\n<p>In 1981, she gained admission into the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University (O.A.U) Ile-Ife, Osun State. She later graduated from the department of Dramatic Arts with a second-class upper degree.<\/p>\n<p>At the age of 33 in 1997, Chukwura took a course at Leeds University, Workshire Playhouse.<\/p>\n<p>In 2020, the actress graduated with a second-class upper-level certificate in Christian Ministry from L.I.F.E.

In 2011, the actress went off the screens without much explanation such that from 2011 to 2013 she was not seen accepting or filming movies.<\/p>\n<p>Essentially, it later came to public knowledge that she took a break from movie making to focus on taking her foundation internationally to locations such as Kenya and Los Angeles while also learning how the acting guild works completely from ours.<\/p>\n<p>Despite her still being active as an actress, Clarion has expanded herself as the owner of a film production and consultancy company called Jade Productions Limited. She began the company in 2007 and serves as a project director as well as an executive producer.<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, She announced a production suit under works with Jade Productions alongside Eagle Eye Production called <em>The Legend of Ameh Oboni The Great of Igalaland<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The internationally acclaimed actress produced <em>Footsteps<\/em> in 2015. It is a Television Documentary Series under the Clarion Chukwura Initiative to sensitize the youth on the dangers of fleeing from one&#8217;s country for a supposed better life abroad.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>She is involved in Humanitarian Activities<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Asides from acting and production, Clarion is widely invested in humanitarian activities. As a testament, the Clarion Chukwura Helpline Initiative Charity was formed in 1999.

The organization&#8217;s presence is felt not only in Nigeria but also in countries like UK Canada, and Cameroun.<\/p>\n<p>Since its inception, the Clarion Chukwura initiative has educated and sponsored about 200 women in vocational training as well as youth in career choice selection guidance.<\/p>\n<p>Rewarding her humanitarian acts, Clarion was awarded the City of Houston Humanitarian Proclamation on Women Empowerment by the Mayor. She was also honored with the Danny Glover humanitarian award in New York as well as United Nations Special Peace Ambassador.<\/p>\n<p>She belongs to the Rotary Club of Nairobi and was awarded the Kenyan humanitarian award in 2012<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Clarion Chukwura Has Been Married 3 Times and Has a Child with Shina Peters<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_79338\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-79338\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-79338 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Clarion.jpg\" alt=\"Clarion Chukwura\" width=\"700\" height=\"398\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Clarion.jpg 700w, https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Clarion-260x148.jpg 260w, https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Clarion-696x396.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-79338\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Clarion Chukwura and her ex, Anthony Boyd (<a href=\"https:\/\/loveweddingsng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Clarion-Chukwura-Remarries-LoveweddingsNG-3-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Image Source<\/a>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>She Was Married to<\/strong><b>\u00a0MKO Abiola&#8217;s Brother<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Clarion was first married to Babatunde &#8220;Tunde&#8221; Abiola, MKO Abiola&#8217;s brother. The marriage led to Clarion adopting the name &#8220;Abiola&#8221; at a point in her career before later dropping it.<\/p>\n<p>In December 2003, the marriage ended in divorce.\u00a0The reason for the divorce is shadowy. Yet, there are claims that the actress claimed that the marriage was not good for her. Hence, her decision to end it after a son named Brian Abiola.<\/p>\n<p>Away from the marriage, Abiola was an engineer. He was said to have died on May 24 2017 after his brother&#8217;s wife demolished his house while he was still receiving treatment in the hospital.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Her Second Marriage Lasted Only 2 Years<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Shortly after her first marriage to Tunde Abiola ended, Clarion Chukwura got married to Femi Olarenwaju Oduneye who is also known as Femi Egyptian.

Nonetheless, there are rumors that the marriage may have crashed.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of this writing, the actress has not given any insight into the claim about her third union.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>She Dated Shina Peters Before in Her Teens<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In her first year of university at OAU, Clarion was given a role to play in the <em>Mirror in the Sun<\/em> (1982).

It is reported that she was pressured to abort the child but did not succumb.<\/p>\n<p>Her life even became more difficult as her disappointed mother asked her to leave their home. Yet, she was able to find<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.scoopernews.com\/static\/half\/detail\/2301\/11502012.html?c=OTHER\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> help from Prof. Wole Soyinka<\/a> who was working as her then-Head of Department.

However, she cleared the air over the matter by explaining that the church of Scientology was only a body that supported her cause and work on the series, <em>Footsteps. <\/em>She was in talks with the church of Scientology because although it was shot in Hollywood, the Celebrity center and some of the crew used for the filming came directly from the church. Clarion Chukwura emphasized that the relationship was purely business.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Actress Has Been Involved in Some Controversies\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>From dating rumors to talking about nudity, and also posting semi-nude pictures, Clarion has attracted quite a number of controversies.<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, the actress in an interview responded to a question about possible nudity in roles.

While the act in itself became an instant controversy, she further raised another controversy when she declared that her state of undress was <a href=\"https:\/\/thenationonlineng.net\/clarion-chukwurah-celebrates-57th-birthday-with-topless-pictures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">inspired by the holy spirit<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On the aspect of her love life, it was rumored that she had an affair with actor Wale Adebayo who is about 7-8 years older.<\/p>\n<p>The rumor of the relationship started with an allegation that Clarion declared that she found love in the arms of the actor.
