Deyemi Okanlawon, Iyabo Ojo, Kiki Osibanjo & More Celebrate #FathersDay

People all around the world celebrated Father’s Day on Sunday and Nigerian celebrities also took to social media to celebrate and honour their dads and anyone they deem a father figure.

While first time dads like Bryan Okwara and Babatunde Bernard Tayo (Baba Tee) took to Instagram to celebrate themselves, others posted photos of their fathers and husbands.

Fatherhood has more to do with leadership than with gender… pls tag (or DM me a pic & handle of) a father you’ll like me to celebrate today! #HappyFathersDay

I spent the whole of father's day with my dad today. Mr Friday @nanachops322017 even cooked for him in honour of father's day. I know everyone's dad is the best but MY DAD is like the most amazing of all lol 😍🥰🥰. My parent's house is the happiest/most peaceful place in the world! I love being there! . . . My dad automatically stiffens up in front of a camera so my mum was in the background saying hilarious stuff; I swear we could not keep the laughter down 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙈dad kept begging her not to spoil the pictures then she will say something funny again and we would crack up. In slide 3 she decided to photo bomb yet she was saying sebi it's father's day not mother's day 🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️ Slide 7 is dad showing me the yams he planted this year and how well they were keeping their home farm (by the way my parents plant almost everything they eat especially vegetables). . . Oh what a beautiful well spent day. Thank you everyone that came on the live show, my parents send their love to you all. Muuuuuuuuuaaaaahhhhhhh . . . Love from Bose omo baba e 🥰🥰🥰🥰💯💯💯💯🏋🏼‍♀️🏋🏼‍♀️💢💢💥💥💥💥🥰🥰

Happiness, gladness & beautiful testimony will be your portion …… stay strong my fellow warriors, . Have faith & be courageous, never give up on you or your kid/kids, love them for in this you will draw strength, care for them, raise them right, teach them love & be an open book to them, so that in you they can also draw strength, fight for their progress & success with each inch of blood 🩸 in you & leave the rest to God to take control, hold on to your God💪 you are winning all the way 🍾 . A day will come when a single hug from your kid will take away all your years of pains & labour, trust me, it will end in praises, victory awaits you, .
