Still smarting from the painful loss of her mother, Nollywood foremost actress, Funke Akindele has broke her silence since the unfortunate incident happened on February 7.
The actress took to her verified Instagram account to pour out her heart and showered encomium on her mum for her role in guiding them through life.
“Mom, you raised me to be very hardworking, dedicated, and selfless. You were a blessing to not just your children but to everyone around you. You always had a positive impact on the lives of anyone that came across you. You taught us the way of the Lord: how to pray, how to serve God, and how to commit all things to him. We have the fear of God in our hearts because of how you nurtured us to be compassionate in everything we do. You didn’t stop at teaching us alone; you further extended this same legacy to your grandchildren by teaching them how to pray too at a very young age.
“Mom, you were very selfless and did everything humanly possible to give us the best life. I want to thank you, mom, for raising us well despite the ups and downs. Yes, it hurts, but I’m happy that your legacy lives on with us—your children and grandchildren as well—and that you’re in a better place.
“I’m definitely going to miss you, mommy. And I promise I’d never give up, just like you always advised. I’ll make sure I give my best to anything I do, and victory will be my portion in Jesus’ name. I will make you proud, mom.”
