He also appreciated everyone who have sent condolence messages to him, noting how he has received several countless messages of concerns for his well-being, however, he is not in the right state of mind to express how he feels.

He also explained that all is not well, but he has to move on for the sake of everyone who has shown genuine concern over him during this sad period. He also promised to stand strong, while appealing to the public not to try to console him whenever they come in contact with him physically, adding that it will make him break down.

He wrote:

“72 hours of endless tears still can’t bring back my Shuga boo.

To everyone who has genuinely reached out to me with love and concern for my state of mind and well-being through countless calls, messages, and voice notes.

I see them all.

I truly do.

I’m just too weak right now to read, listen, respond, or even find the words to express how I really feel.

All is not well at the moment.

But for the sake of our family, friends, and the fans who have shown up in prayers, posts, calls, and overwhelming love – and most especially for my children, who will draw strength from me as we learn to move on without our Shuga Boo, our Ibiayo, our Eniobanke, our Allwell Ademola.

I promise to stand strong

Please, when you see me, don’t try to console me because I will break down.

I still can’t say farewell.

Shuga boo.”
