Nollywood actress Faithia Williams, is celebrating the life of her late mother.

The Yoruba actress took to her Instagram page to pen a lengthy post, noting how despite it being 41 days since her mother was laid to rest—every sunrise still feels like the first without her presence.

She maintained that despite her late mother's body being buried, the love she planted in her can never be buried, and is in fact growing wild, unpruned, untamed, and refusing to go off.

Making a vow to the deceased, Williams promised to keep living in a way that makes her proud, affirming her unwavering love for her beyond this world.

She wrote:
"41 days have passed since we laid you to rest, Moomi, yet every sunrise still feels like the first without you.

The world tells me time heals, but how can time heal a wound carved from the very heart that first beat for me?

41 days ago, I watched them lower your body into the earth, but they could never bury the love you planted in my soul. That love still grows wild in me, unpruned, untamed, refusing to wither even when my eyes burn from crying, and my chest feels too small to hold this ache.

Iya oyinbo, you were not just my mother; you were my first home, my safest prayer, my loudest cheerleader, and my softest landing place. You taught me how to love without keeping score, how to forgive before the hurt even settled, how to stand tall even when the ground beneath me shook. Now I stand here, motherless in the world’s eyes, yet more mothered than any soul has a right to be, because your spirit still whispers strength into my bones.

Until we meet again, I will keep living in a way that makes you proud. I will love fiercely, pray loudly, and hold my head high because I am the daughter of a woman whose light refused to be dimmed even by death.

Rest well, my beautiful Mummy.
I love you beyond 41 days, beyond years, beyond this lifetime. Iya oyinbo, iya eleja, moomi

Forever your baby."

The burial of her mother took place on Saturday, March 7, with colleagues in attendance, as they honoured the legacy of Williams' mother.
