Adekunle Gold’s sister, Adekunbi, on Thursday, shed tears of joy over a poster of her brother’s show she saw in London.
Adekunle Gold is set to hold his About 30 concert in London on Friday, June 29. He will be performing with his band, the 79th Element which his sister is a part of.
In a video uploaded to Instagram on Thursday by the ‘Ire’ singer, Adekunbi is seen in tears as she gushed over her brother’s poster for the show.
She said in the video, “Adekunle omo Ikotun ni London (child of Ikotun in London)” amidst tears of Joy.
In the caption of the video, Adekunle expressed how much it meant to him seeing that she with him “on this journey.”
“I’m not going to lie. This moved me. Means everything to me that my sister is on this journey with me. I know and feel what she feels, it’s never been easy, it’s still not easy but I’m so thankful we are experiencing it together,” he wrote.
Adekunle Gold, born Adekunle Kosoko, is the first and only son of four children. He has three sisters, Adekunbi, Fadeke and Busayo.
Busayo died in 2011 due to a heart complication.
He dedicated his hit single ‘Ire’ to her.
‘Who is Busayo? I’ve been getting this question a lot. Busayo is my sister. We lost her in 2011 to a Heart Complication. Busayo was symbolically represented by the little girl skipping around me in the video as that is who she was in real life.
“She never left my side, a matter of fact, she was my younger twin. We looked alike and she could sing for the whole of AFRICA.
“In my heart, I believe I sing for the both of us; It was only right that I dedicated the video to her memory,” he said.
