Nollywood actress Opeyemi Aiyeola is experiencing a tough time as she mourns a loved one.
Taking to her Instagram page, to share a photo of a white bird flying, she revealed that she had lost someone close to her.
In a follow-up post, Opeyemi said she can’t sleep, her heart is heavy, and the tears can’t stop falling. She said that the person’s death has pierced her heart so deeply, and her pictures are too beautiful and special to be uploaded with RIP.
Opeyemi recalled that the last time they spoke, she begged her not to give up the fight, not to give her reason to weep, and not to allow death to win. She noted how people believe praying for the departed is worthless, but not for her, as she will continually pray for her.
“Sleep fail me, heart so heavy, can’t stop these tears from falling.
Haa, you’ve pierced my heart so deeply.
Your pictures are too beautiful and special to be uploaded with RIP inscribed.
The last time we spoke, it was with so many tears, and I begged you so much not to give up the fight.
I begged you not to give me a reason to weep.
I begged you not to allow death to win.
O dun mi gan ni o.
Haaa Jehovah!!
Some people believe praying for the departed is worthless, but not me.
I will continuously pray for your sweet soul to rest peacefully.
You sacrificed so much and paid the ultimate price. Rest on mini-me, as I fondly call you”.
