Nollywood actress Biodun Okeowo has opened her heart on Instagram as she marked seven years since the passing of her mother. In a deeply emotional post, the Yoruba actress reflected on the enduring pain of losing a mother, describing it as “a space that never closes, an injury that never heals.”
Biodun’s letter painted a vivid picture of her mother’s selflessness and sacrifice, recalling how she helped raise Biodun’s children and supported her through life’s toughest moments. She questioned why her mother had to leave at a pivotal moment in her life, asking, “Mummy, did you come to slave for us, ni? Or why did you leave at the verge of a breakthrough?”
She recounted heart-wrenching memories, including the moment her first child left for Canada, fearing he might never see his grandmother again. Despite the pain, she found solace in knowing her mother is with the Lord and that her legacy continues to guide and inspire her every day.
“Your prayers, your strength, and everything you were still guide my steps every day. I miss you deeply, but I thank God for the gift of having you as my mother. Your legacy lives on through us. Keep resting in perfect peace,” she wrote, urging fans to pray for her mother.
Biodun’s tribute joins a wave of heartfelt remembrances from Nollywood stars. Actor Nosa Rex recently honored his late father, while Funke Akindele marked her mother’s third remembrance with a moving tribute to her guidance and love. IK Ogbonna also shared touching memories of his mother as his first love, emphasizing the timeless impact of a mother’s presence.
Through these tributes, fans are reminded of the profound influence mothers have on their children’s lives and the enduring love that continues long after they are gone.
