For all the times you gently picked me up
Your arms always open
when I needed a hug.
Your heart understood
when I needed a friend.
For all you do,
you do with love.
You are so special,
A gift from above.
And with all my heart,
I want to say,
I love you Mum and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE ORIGINAL STAR GIRL.”

In another post, she shared:

The real inspiration behind one naira. After writing choruses Mi wasn’t feeling, he said “think of someone you’ll give everything up for” and I thought of this selfless woman who sacrificed everything and wrote a chorus that years after people still sing. Happy birthday, mum.”
