Adeoluwa Okusaga, a former Big Brother Naija housemate known as Saga, has shared some of his special moments with his late mother.

Saga shared slideshows of photos he took with his mother on his official Instagram account, writing, ”

“I THINK BACK TO WHEN YOU WERE SICK AND I TOLD MY FRIENDS THAT IF YOU DIED, I’D RUIN MAD, I DIDN’T THINK I’D SURVIVE IT. WE WERE THAT CLOSE TOGETHER.
IT’S FUNNY NOW, BUT BACK THEN, I WAS YOUR LITTLE HUSBAND TO SOME PEOPLE AND A MUMMY’S BOY TO OTHERS. IN EITHER CASE, I AM CERTAIN THAT YOU ARE MY FIRST LOVE AND THAT YOU HAVE TAUGHT AND PREPARED ME FOR THE WORLD’S CHALLENGES OVER THE PAST 21 YEARS.

“ADE GO AND BUY A TOOTHBRUSH NOW AND BRUSH YOUR TEETH, YOUR MOUTH IS SMELLING,” YOU WHISPERED TO ME DURING SERVICE EIGHT YEARS AGO. Since you were so present as a mother, I can still hear you in my head giving me advice on what to do and what not to do.
BUT I JUST WANT THE WORLD TO KNOW TODAY THAT I WAS RAISED BY A SUPERHUMAN, A WARRIOR, AND SOMEONE WHO WOULD GIVE IT ALL TO MAKE ME AND MY SISTER SMILE. THERE ARE MANY MEMORIES TO CHOOSE FROM.

I THINK I’M STARTING TO UNDERSTAND HOW YOU SEE LIFE IN SO MANY WAYS RIGHT NOW. YOU ALWAYS SOUGHT TO BE HAPPY, LIGHT UP ANY ROOM YOU ENTER, SPEAK AND DANCE AT ANY CHANCE YOU GOT, WORK LIKE YOU HAD NO OTHER CHOICES, AND PLAY LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOU BELIEVED STRONGLY IN A LIFE OF SERVITUDE AND GENERALLY MAKING SACRIFICES FOR OTHERS, AND I AM WHO
I HOPE I’M MAKING YOU PROUD AND I MISS YOU.
ALWAYS IN MY HEART
MY LOVED, ABOSEDE OLUWAYEMISI OKUSAGA
