Popular Nigerian comedian Oluwaseyitan Aletile A.K.A Seyi Law and his wife Stacy Ebere Cham unfortunately lost their unborn child.
The expecting mother, Stacy had been in the US since December 2014 where she planned to give birth. The baby was due to be born in April 2015 but sadly the baby was lost this week.
Stacy reportedly announced their loss on her Blackberry Messenger saying “We lost our baby (daughter) Cossy R.I.P. Thank God for his strength. I am still standing. Please bear with me I can’t explain to you all.”
The father, Seyi law also mourned the loss of his baby girl on his Instagram page on social media. He attached a very emotional tribute to his unborn baby.
“My heart is blank,
My joy has disappeared,
Anger has become my companion.
The wait is over with a bitter end.
Oh Lord! why does it have to be me?
I am so imperfect and never denied it.
The pains of nine months has amounted to nothing.
We believe so much in you.
How do I console her when I can’t find strength myself?
I thought my feet will dance this season.
I have enlarged my tent in waiting,
But my wait has been hit with sadness.
I don’t want to murmur or complain,
But my emotions are hurt.
Help me to stand Lord.
So, I can always be thankful.
I want to be stronger in praises this period.
I want to hold her hands to comfort her.
Help us to pass this season while standing.
Rest well Cossy.”
Seyi and Stacy married in March 2011, this would have been their first child.
