In a heartfelt tribute posted to his social media, Kamo expressed deep gratitude to Funke Akindele, whom he regards as a godmother, for her unwavering support throughout his wife’s pregnancy and delivery.
Kamo state recounted numerous acts of kindness and generosity that she extended to him and his family, from medical care to daily check-ins and financial support.
“I’ll never forget the nights you spent by my side at the hospital… Even when I told you about the pregnancy late, you were ready to fly my wife to the US for the baby’s birth,” he wrote.

“You told your driver and security to follow us to the hospital even if we called at midnight, ensuring we were safe and sound,” he said.
