Veteran rapper and singer, Eedris Abdulkareem has released a new song, titled, ‘Thank You’, to appreciate his wife Sekinat for donating a kidney for him, to save his life.
He also appreciated everyone for the outpour of love and care he’d been receiving. He disclosed that he was feeling strong and agile both in his soul and body.
Recall that on July 6, Abdulkareem via his Instagram revealed he’d been diagnosed with kidney failure, seeking prayers and good wishes from Nigerians.
Speaking against the backdrop of the new song Eedris Abdulkareem said “I had always known that she could do anything for me; just like she knows that I can do anything for her. It has always been that way with us.”
He said, “There are a lot of ways I have been showing my jewel of inestimable value my unalloyed appreciation for what she has done for me, and I will never get tired of doing that. She is the most awesome person alive. She is actually my Siamese twin and our bond is unbreakable.
“Making a special song for her is one of those things I am doing to thank her, though this is not the first song I have dedicated to her ‘royal loveliness’.”
The ‘Mr Lecturer’ singer urged people to marry for love and not for other reasons.
“While coming up in the industry as a young guy, I had the option of marrying for more money and high society connections. But, I refused to be a gold digger and clout chaser, and instead diligently worked and prayed for my own soul mate. The day I saw her, I knew immediately that I had found my missing rib. My advice to young people out there is that they should marry for love; not any other thing,” he said.
The singer added that he had already recorded some songs since he got back from the hospital, but decided to release the new track first to honour his wife.
He also stated that ‘eternally grateful’ to everybody who showed him, love, during his sickness.
