Life is empty without you. Continue to watch over us! My heart is broken forever! Love you, love you, MORAYO mi. Your smile is a memory I will never forget. Your laugh! Your hugs and kisses. I miss you dearly!”
Wizkid recalled his mother’s smile, laughter, hugs, and kisses, stating his heart is broken forever.
He recently announced plans to honor her memory with a new album titled “Morayo,” though the release date remains undisclosed.
