Popular social media skit maker Lasisi Elenu has announced the death of his mother Grace Afolabi, who was sick for some years.
The comic actor made this known via his Instagram account.
He wrote: “So this is truly how it feels to lose someone so precious to you. This is the saddest moment of my life. Madam Grace Osaivbie Afolabi” is gone!!
“No one ever truly knows the pain we all go through individually even while fronting a smile to the public. Mama Itohan was a strong woman, she was sick for so many years and I lost her to death.
“Damn you death. I wished she enjoyed life more, not in sickness and pain But in sound health. The last 1 month was too tough on YOU. YOU went through so much pain in the hospital and the last words YOU kept saying each time YOU managed to talk was “I want to go home”.
Expressing his grief, he added: “I will miss YOU. You gave me so many memories. Growing up with you was like a movie. One that I have in time shared with the world and putting smiles on their faces.
“Mummy, even on your sickbed the world knew you, I made sure of that. I made sure to tell the world about you through my jokes and they LOVE YOU.
“Even before you left us, all the years you have been sick in and out of the hospital the world knew you as Mama Lasisi, Mama Itohan The strong and funny woman with the white towel that’s always about to fall loose.
“I will continue to make you proud Mama. Damn, I’m in pain, But if Mama Lasisi was here YOU would have said Osalobua Lahor “Rest In Peace “ Madam Grace Osaivbie Afolabi” #weloveyou #RIP #mamalasisi #number1fan.”
