Nollywood actor Saidi Balogun is remembering his late daughter, Zeenat Jolade Balogun, on the one-year anniversary of her passing.
Kemi Filani reported in October last year that Saidi Balogun had lost his first daughter. The Yoruba actor, via his Instagram page, shared a photo of a candlelit with flowers surrounding it, accompanied by several birds and heartbroken emojis.
In another post, he shared a screenshot of the family statement describing the deceased as a warrior who gave life all and was the embodiment of joy, acceptance, and resilience. The late Zeenat was further described as a die-hard believer in the phrase never give up.
Now, marking her one-year remembrance, Saidi shared a clip of his late daughter accompanied by a touching note to her. He noted how it has been one year strong and states that his daughter isn’t to be forgotten.
Telling her to rest on, he wrote,
“One year strong. NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN!
Rest on my angel. Zeenat Jolade Balogun”.
His colleagues took to his comment section to sympathise with him.
