Popular Nigerian musician,Chidinma Ekile of the 'Kedike fame' recently featured her mum,Mrs Martha Ekile on a new song dedicated to her. Chidinma's mum did the intro and then the singer took it from there.

Chidinma expressed her excitement on her Instagram page.She said: 

“The song ‘Martha’ is dedicated to my mother, Mrs Martha Ekile. I decided to show my fans  a different side to Chidinma, a side never revealed to so many, a side I will forever remain grateful and indebted to Father Lord  for his miraculous interventions and guidance in my life.”

“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 the newly born, Chidinma with sight. On the sixteenth day I opened my eyes and they have been opened ever since.

I was born a very fragile baby with some health conditions. Her prayers took it all away. Life is such a wonderful and colourful piece of art and it must feel like hell not to envision God’s creation.''
