Nollywood actress and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) deputy governorship candidate in Lagos State, Funke Akindele, has spoken after the death of her mother.
Akindele’s sister, Olubunmi Akindele, announced the death of their mother on Tuesday.
In a post she shared via her Instagram account on Friday, the actress said that she and her family are not mourning the death of their mother, but they are celebrating a life well lived.
She said, “That’s my mum! My sweet mum! Ever lively! Ever jovial! Life of the party! Mum, you raised me to be very hardworking, dedicated and selfless. You were a blessing to not just your children but everyone around you.
You always had a positive impact in 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.
“Mum, you were very selfless and did everything humanely possible to give us the best life. I want to thank you mum, for raising us well despite the ups and downs.
I’ll make sure I give my best to anything I do and victory will be my portion in Jesus name. I shall make you proud mum.
“I’m glad you didn’t weep over your children. I’m glad you saw your grandchildren. I’m glad you lived a fulfilled life.
Mum we’re not mourning rather we’re celebrating a life well lived. May your soul rest in perfect peace I love you mummy.
