Omowunmi Aloba, the widow of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has made a special request to Nigerians as she marks her birthday today.
Wunmi, in a post on her Instagram page, said it is her first time celebrating her birthday in the absence of her late husband.
She appealed to Nigerians to celebrate MohBad on her birthday instead of celebrating her.
Wunmi noted that the best birthday gift Mohbad gave to her before his death was their son, Liam, adding that Nigerians should pray for his spirit.
She wrote: “This is the first time in many years that I’ll be celebrating my birthday without my husband’s promise! He was not just my husband, but also my best friend, confidant, gist partner and more. Today, all I want for my birthday is for his fans across the world to celebrate the life he lived.
“I beg you all to say a prayer for the spirit of Ilerioluwa! Whether you choose to pray silently in your heart or post his picture on your profile. I ask that you sincerely pray for the soul of Ilerioluwa.
“Let this day be dedicated to him, rather than to me. Because he had given me the best birthday gift before he was snatched from me! He gave me the gift of himself through our son, Liam. A child that I will love and cherish till the end of time. Please celebrate Mohbad.”
