Popular actress and singer Tonto Dikeh is known to have lost her mother when she was only a young girl growing up in Port Harcourt.
Today the newly wed actress took to social media to pay tribute to her late mother. She also showed a picture of her mum who she bears a very strong resemblance to.
A few words may suffice to pay tribute to a soul that departed the world sooner than she deserved. It’s been 28 years since you were taken from us dear mother; you’re a gem that cannot be replaced. You’re a symbol of love, selflessness and compassion, strong yet tender to all of us. The lessons you gave me are as priceless as the sacrifices you made to get me to where I am today. Even now, as I speak of you, secret tears still flow within my soul, what it meant to lose you no one will ever know.
