In 2014, Nigerian singer, Bez Idakula got married to daughter of former governor of Oyo State, Rasheed Ladoja, Bolatito. The wedding was glamorous going by the calibre of people that graced the occasion.
In March 2015, the pretty lady welcomed their first child, but about 24 hours later, the child died, but it was not reported because of the gravity of the loss and also because the couple did not make noise about it.
But after keeping it to herself, Bolatito has shared the experience and how she was able to overcome the loss of the child she only saw for few hours. Here is her story.
It is so odd, writing about the loss of a child, you fear that the words can never fully express the pain and the gravity of the situation. But I don’t mean to just express my pain and loss. I mean to show God’s power and love even in the darkest days.

I come from a culture of silence, where speaking about certain issues is almost taboo. One of the most kept secrets is when a woman loses a child, no one talks about it and it is almost like it never happened. People only speak about it when the woman has another child or they find out that you have lost a child. I fall in the category of the latter. I gave birth to my beautiful daughter on the 2nd of March 2015 and she passed away on the 3rd of March 2015 after 42 weeks pregnancy.
