Rising Nigerian music star, Kiss Daniel, on May 9, 2015, announced the death of his father. This occurred just when he was winning his way into the hearts of many music lovers both in Nigeria and abroad. Many condolence messages were sent to him by his numerous fans.

If the man was alive today, he would have marked another birthday, but Kiss Daniel, remembering the day, sent a posthumous birthday message to him.

He wrote, “40 days. Happy birthday daddy. It's been 40 days since I lost my best friend. Let me mourn daddy, I have been strong for too long, let me cry. I wasn't there for you when you needed me the most, I confess dad and I am sorry.

“I fell in love with my job and cheated on my family, it's not worth it, daddy, now i know. I never should have listened to you when you said 'It's just typhoid, I'm fine'. You left before I could buy you that car I promised for your birthday which is today, dats not fair dad. You are the reason I could make such promise.

“You're my number 1 fan. You called me 12am the day after I dropped 'Woju' to tell me it's a hit. That day was the beginning of it all. Dad, at least come back for the car.

“The last day I saw you was the saddest day of my life, because you were in so much pain, I could feel it dad. I could feel it even though you were trying too hard to be strong in my presence. I let myself be fooled by your actions daddy, that's not responsible. I have been avoiding anything dat could remind me of you but it's not working.

“I have to do this, I have to let the world know you such an amazing being. Your last words to me, 'you are a star among stars.' You are a dad among dads too and your boy is doing fine.

“I hope Jesus got you a giant cake for your birthday daddy. I love you so much, Happy birthday.

Stupid Son, Oluwatobiloba.”
