You were strong, resilient, powerful, you showed me Christ even though were not born into that faith and even when life threw you into being a widow, you staggered up and held us walking, crawling to the finish line. I love you Omo baba alagbafo of adatan, Omo iya Olowu of Owu, Omoge Oluwatoyin nee Oguntade. Omo EGBA to sure! Fine woman keep turning heads in heaven my outstandingly beautiful mother. We continue to honor you. Yes you were here. You left your mark. Cherish your mother today. Mrs Oluwatoyin Amori Jalade 53-01. #happymothersday #mamajal”

Nigerian record producer, singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur, Michael Collins Ajereh, better known as Don Jazzy, also paid tribute to his mum who he says sold akara (beans cake) and would sometimes not make any profit because she had fed the entire street for free:

”Behold the sweetest mother in the world. People ask me why do I carry people’s problem on my head and try to make everyone happy. Might be strange to a lot of people but not me cos growing up watching you be a mother to everybody around you was a beautiful sight. You will sell Akara and sometimes not make profit cos you have fed the entire street for free.

You made me understand that a good name is definitely better than silver or gold. You made me see the importance in sharing happiness. How it’s better for everyone to be happy around you than for you to be happy alone. All of which has made me the man I am today. I LOVE YOU MUM. Happy Mother’s Day. ????????????????????”
