Nigerian influencer Priscilla Ojo is celebrating her mother, Iyabo Ojo, as she turns 48 today.
On her Instagram page, she revealed that she admires how strong, beautiful and kind her mother is. She revealed that this had its ups and downs, but Iyabo stood tall, and that’s what she admires about her the most.
She praised her mother for her bravery, kindness, and heart, which she said are pure gold. She questioned if Iyabo can’t see how beautiful she gets every day.
Priscilla reflected on their tough times in Canada, how she tried to frame her, lie against her, and discredit her, trying to turn all the good she did into bad. Yet, she stood firm, unshakable, and worried about being pregnant.
The mum of one noted how her mother didn’t give up, and now God had fought her battles, and it backfired. She praised her for being an amazing grandma to her son and also a second mother to her husband.
“Happy birthday, Mom @iyaboojofespris
Wishing you a day that’s as bright, beautiful, and full of joy as you are. May God fill your special day with love, laughter, and all that brings you happiness. You’re the glue that holds us together. You’re strong, beautiful, and kind 1 of 1!!!!
This year has had its ups and downs, but you’ve stood tall, and that’s what I admire about you. Your bravery, kindness, and heart are sure gold. Can’t you see you get more beautiful every day? That’s how beautiful your heart is – it radiates and reflects in your outer self.
During the tough times in Canada, I realised nothing can bring you down. They tried to frame you, lie against you. Turning all the good you did into bad. But you stood firm, unshakable.
Instead, you worried about me being pregnant, making sure I was okay.
Meanwhile, I was also worried about you.
You didn’t give up and see the way God fought your battles, and it all backfired. Thank you for being an amazing grandma to @rakeem_mk and a second mom to my husband, always supporting and praying for us.
Keep shining, Mom. Next year is about to be your best year yet! I love you, Queen”.
