Mama Janet Ekundayo (1917- 2009) Philanthropist & Carer. Hailed as the 'Mother Teresa of Nigeria', with limited education and funds set up the Ekundayo Children's Home in Makutu-Isanlu Kogi State in 1967. As at 2007 over 500 orphans had passed through the Home. She cared for orphans without government assistance up until her death in a road accident in 2009
I just can't help crying. Lord help me to be useful to you and to humanity. God bless you mama and TY Bello u'll always ve an audience in me. Love this video and the story.
Ami!! God bless you guys for showcasing this rare woman! Everyone wants to give birth but who will take care of the ones who are born without parents?
WAOH!! Simply Beautiful. Such a blessing. I'm so glad I came across this video. We must make an impact on each life we come across. Be encouraged! Mama is blessed.
Ty Honey, I'm so proud of you! Thanks you so much for having an incredible heart! This song will echo into eternity. Well done Honey....Well Done! I'm so envious of u right now...lol!
RIP MAMA EKUNDAYO, you are in heaven in ur estate not mansion, you deserve it. i wish all the greedy nigerians who steal money would learn from your life.the truth is that if God decides to wipe them and their generation of the face of the earth the money was stolen for nothing.i mean why would an individual ateal hundreds of billions of Naira?
this song and ijoba orun should be played fro them.
... mama, i dont know how i can describe you; a model, celebrity, God sent and a Christ sent saviour. May u live longer to reap all your efforts. Many people still wanna see you face to face. Good job TY BELLO, OLUFUNMI and the rest of da crew. K'p on sailing!
mama lives in Kogi State in Nigeria and that's where her ophanage is. see the video on "making of Ekundayo by TY Bello" All mama's detaila are there. Note, mama is now 94 years of age.
thanx ty for sharing this with the world. there are still great, kind people out there. thanx for recognizing her efforts. Think of the live's she's touched and changed. God bless her.
I love this n its an encouragement more n a big boost to me as I finally set my mind on adoption n helping children..defo...God bless u mamma n TY Bello n the production crew!1 God bless u
God bless u mama....i now understand this song...with video...its about the lives u are able to touch,not the amount of times u go to church or the mosque...not even the knowledge u have...this video,made me cry...love you TY...God bless OLUFUNMI too..."EMIKO LEN SE FUN,KRISTI ENI TEN SE FUN YI O DURO TI YIN"....Dhele!
I never really thought about it that way but there IS a stigma with adopting in our country...people would rather remain childless for years and years or go to "baba alawo" than adopt...and there are so many abandoned kids...that's so sad!!!
What a nice blend between ancient and modern, grunge and clean, contemporary and classical. Its obvious a new movement in Nigeria has risen, pushing for a passion for excellence. Very nice and conceptual video here TY. I'm still as ever impressed with what mosa did with the music as well.
