Nollywood actress Bimpe Akintunde has written a heartfelt note to her colleague and friend, Ayo Olaiya, for standing by her side during her pregnancy.

Appreciating him, she showered him with prayers.
“Today I am celebrating ‘MY MAN OF THE YEAR’
This man right here was everything to me this year, as always.
I started the journey of this year 2025 with pregnancy, the most sacred journey of my life!!!!
The devil threatens me during this journey so badly!!!!!!
But I hold on to my God and good people around me!!!!!!!!!! I am sure most of my loved ones knew @ayoolaiya to be my bestie years before now. He came all the way to Ikorodu to follow me and surprise my firstborn on her 5th birthday celebration. You see, this was my second pregnancy journey, and it was a tough one.
Truly, a pregnant woman never forgets how you treat her during pregnancy!!!
This man right here stood as if he were the one who put me in that condition ni o!!!!!!, From day 1, I told him about the pregnancy. He would call me, pray with me, send me fruits, send me data, and send me money. This video was JULY 5TH, and my baby came JULY 18TH,
Thank you so much Boda Busayo miii, Oluwa a maa duro ti e ni gbogbo ona, Oju ko ni ti e layelaye, mo dupe lopolopo @ayoolaiya

Thank you for always standing by me, My Bestie, like no other. Let’s do more in the year 2026 and forever, Insha’Allah. Help me say a word of prayer for MY MAN OF THE YEAR”.
During her child’s naming ceremony, Olaiya had stirred the internet with photos of himself and the actress. Hd declared that their child was blessed and appreciated everyone’s love and support.
Kemi Filani reported in July that Bimpe announced that she had welcomed her second child, a baby girl. Sharing photos from her maternity shoot, Bimpe stated that the nine-month journey ended in praise.
Her husband, Yousuph Ganiyu, had fueled breakup rumours with his post. He said the worst prison in the world is a home without peace and respect, and he admonished the public to be careful about whom they marry.
Kemi Filani checked the couple’s Instagram pages and noticed they had unfollowed each other and had deleted all photos of themselves. Kemi Filani also noticed that Yousuph hasn’t been included in any of the pregnancy videos and posts Bimpe has been making since the birth of their daughter.
