Nigerian Afrojazz singer Yinka Davies has lost her first child in a tragic battle with illness. He died at the age of 28.
The music star revealed this on her Instagram page on Tuesday, 2 February 2021, where she announced the sad news.
Jeremiah died last Friday, 29 January, after a long battle with Autoimmune blood tissue disorder. He had been in and out of the hospital in the last 10 months.
Breaking the tragic news, Yinka wrote: “Fun-50 For those who held you in their hearts. Those you waved at on your strolls. For those who cried the tears they couldn’t hold back.
“Cos you are no more here, For those who washed you when you were weak. Those who were scared to see you ill. For those who thought you madly stubborn cos you wouldn’t take another pill. I salute them all, who shared you with me.
“Paying for your bills. Calling on others to give their dimes. I appreciate the toils and tears and all the memories you left for them leaving only me.”
