Comedian and moviemaker, AY Makun, has celebrated his daughter, Michelle, on her graduation from primary school.
In an Instagram post on Thursday, the 47-year-old funnyman wrote a letter detailing his pride at his daughter’s achievement and encouraging her to continue being a compassionate girl.
“Dear Michelle, your mum and i can remember your very first day at school in Surulere. Even if it seems like just a few days ago. Today you have made us proud parents. It’s a pleasure to see our precious Adeola completing her primary education to the point of graduation. A bright future is waiting ahead for you.
“Here is a little prayer from us as we are wishing you a very successful journey in life. We pray and ask you, our beloved daughter to continue to work hard like daddy and mummy. Never let pride break you apart. Never let your qualifications, or status make you a person too proud to acknowledge that you are gifted by God . May you continue to be that loving, kind, compassionate girl who cares about everyone around. May God’s powerful protection be upon you as you embark on new journeys in life. We ask that He watch over your paths, and keep your footsteps secure. We pray that no weapon formed against you will prosper in Jesus name,” he wrote.
Michelle Makun is AY’s only daughter with his wife, Mabel Makun.
She was born in 2008.
