Bobby Williams Adeoye, son of the late gospel singer Omije Ojumi (Bunmi Akinnaanu), has assured the deceased that she will always be alive in his heart.
Bobby described the gospel talent as a loving mum who wanted the best for him.
He, however, noted that he wasn’t entirely surprised by his mother’s passing, recalling she often spoke about death while alive.
Bobby revealed so when he paid an emotional tribute Akinnaanu during her service of songs, describing his mother as a loving, caring, and strong woman who dedicated her life to his success.
In his tribute, he recalled Omije Ojumi’s cheerful nature and jokes that made their home a happy place, stating that her humour is one of the things he misses the most since her passing.
“My mother was a very loving, beautiful, and caring person to me, actually. So she was very, very strong. She would do anything to see me come first in anything, or even in class. Any time I came back from school, she always wanted to know what happened. So, that is the loving part about mommy. She’s the best mother in the world to me.
“When I heard she was dead, I was not that surprised because she had always been saying it. She had always been saying it. She cracked jokes to make everyone lively, and that’s the main reason why I also miss Mommy. I know you’re dead right now, but you will always be alive in my heart and in my dreams. I love you mommy. May your soul rest in peace.”
