Music star, Chidinma Ekile has just lost her dad.

A few weeks ago, Chidinma released a song dedicated to her mum, 'Martha'

“I was conceived and certified totally Blind at birth. For fifteen nights this woman held me in her hands and wept uncontrollably, with my father calling on God to bless newly born Chidinma
with sight…. On the 16th day I opened my eyes…. And they been open ever since..

I was born a very fragile baby with some health conditions. Her prayers took it all away. Today I dedicate my entire life selflessly and earnings to catering to visually impaired/blind people. Life is such a wonderful and colorful piece of art and it must feel like hell not to envision Gods creation.” she had disclosed.© 2014Nollywoodgists.com
