In October 2016, Nigerian comedian Bright Okpocha, popular known by the stage name, Basketmouth announced via social media the loss of his beloved mother.
In a post on Instagram, he wrote;
“Last night my angel left me, my first love stopped breathing and it’s the deepest pain I’ve ever felt. I love you for every sacrifice you made to make me the man I am today, I’ve loved you through the tough times. I’ve loved you through happier days and all I can say at this point is that I will love you forever. I will miss you mummy.”
Barely a month after the passing and with all the pain in the heart, the comedian has given the mother a befitting burial. This happened over the weekend.
In a post, Basket Mouth said, ”
Goodbye Mum, you’ll live in our hearts forever.”
