Wunmi Aloba, the widow of late Afrobeat singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, known as Mohbad, has marked their son Liam Light’s second birthday with an emotional message on social media. In her heartfelt note, shared via Instagram, Wunmi expressed her deep love for Liam and reflected on the strength he has given her in the difficult year following Mohbad’s untimely death.
Along with an adorable photo of Liam, she wrote:
“Happy 2nd birthday to my shining star, Liam Eyinimofeoluwa. Today is all about you and the joy you bring into my life. I’m so grateful that I was chosen to be your mother. I know the past year has been tough for us, but I’m always here for you as your mother and your safe place. We have been through so much together and I’m so proud of the strong and resilient person you’re growing up to be. Here’s to another year of laughter, playtime and making memories together! I love you more than words can say and I’m so grateful for the gift of YOU.”
Her emotional tribute has resonated with fans, who have offered support and prayers for Wunmi during this difficult time. Liam’s birthday comes just months after the death of his father, Mohbad, whose passing in September 2023 triggered widespread mourning and ongoing investigations into the circumstances surrounding his death.
