‎Pero Osaiyemi, one of the babymamas of legendary Nigerian rapper 2Baba, has penned a heartfelt message to celebrate her partner on his birthday.


‎Taking to her Instagram page, she revealed that although she is celebrating him today, her heart has been celebrating him since the day he walked into her life. She noted that he is not just her husband, but the calm to her storm, and the steady beat behind every breath she takes.


‎According to her, before she knew him, she knew love; with him she has come to understand love better.


‎She further vowed to love him with all she she is, both in the quiet and in the chaos.


‎She wrote:
‎"Today, I celebrate you, but my heart has been celebrating you since the day you walked into my life.

‎You are not just my husband
‎you are the calm to my storm,
‎the steady beat behind every breath I take,
‎my truest friend, my answered prayer.
‎Before you, I knew love, but with you, I understood it. You didn’t just love me. You saw me at my lowest, even the pieces I kept hidden, even the parts I hadn’t learned to love myself, and somehow, you wrapped them all in grace.

‎I remember when you said,
‎“I may be too late to be your first… but I came prepared to be your last and forever.”

‎And you didn’t just speak it. You’ve lived it!

‎Your patience, sacrifice, and quiet strength make me feel safe even in silence. Because of you, I have grown into a woman I’m proud to be—not perfect, but becoming. Every day, I thank God that I get to become with you.

‎You are the love story I never dared to dream of, the home I didn’t know my heart was longing for…

‎So today, on your birthday, I pray you feel how deeply you are loved.


‎Not just for what you do but for who you are.
‎And I promise you this, as I always will…

‎I will love you with all I am, in the quiet, in the chaos, in the in-between for all my days…

‎Olowo orimi, Ade mi,
‎Forever yours,
‎Your wife."
