Actress Bimpe Akintunde has recounted how her daughter Amida left her teary-eyed with her consistent request for a father figure.
In a lengthy post on her Instagram page on Sunday, Bimpe narrated how her daughter constantly told her to get married.
The actress revealed that she was devastated by Amida’s request and occasionally burst into tears over it.
She added that her daughter also used to pester her for younger siblings and that her response to Amida was for her to pray to God.
“Dear Daughter, I want to specifically congratulate you as Almighty choose to answer your request and prayers… Do you know that @iamprincessamida knew I do not have a husband? Precisely when she was 5 years old, she said n I quote ‘Only you will be sleeping in this Everyday!! You don’t have a husband!! Go and Marry O’ on this day, I cried!!! Same time she told my sister in love n assuming I have a father now!!! I was devastated!!! I cried, complained, and lamented that after all I am trying my best for her, as she continue to grow she keeps asking for siblings,” the actress wrote.
“Every time she complains that is bored and needs younger ones to play with. I told her to pray to God to send me A Good husband.
“It was really hard on me!!! But I kept going, working, praying, and hoping God to send us a good man!!! And the Lord answered our prayer and sent us A REAL Life King HRM OBA YOUSUPH OLAWALE AKANNI GANIYU (OBA MINNESOTA USA).
