Nigerian gospel singer Dare Melody has expressed his profound grief following the recent passing of his wife, Adedoyin Odunuga, née Odagi.
Adedoyin died in the early hours of Thursday, 24th of October, 2024, as announced on Dare Melody’s Instagram account, where he shared the devastating news with his audience.
A wake held on Thursday evening in her memory provided Dare Melody an opportunity to contemplate the significant influence his wife had on his life and their shared experiences.
During the gathering, he spoke openly about the difficulties he is encountering, emphasizing his resolve to approach each day with mindfulness to prevent future regrets.
He characterized his late wife as a person of integrity and honesty, underscoring her distinctive traits that resonated with his own principles.
“I try so hard for my today not to spoil my tomorrow. I used to tell my late wife, whatever you hear about me, we are musicians and we are human. Accept me as I am. My wife, Adedoyin, was a very truthful and honest person, and I am also very truthful. I don’t know how to lie. I used to mend people’s homes but when the storm came, I couldn’t fix my own home,” he said in the Yoruba language.
The singer’s heartfelt reflections have elicited sympathy from fans and fellow artists, who have extended their support and condolences as he navigates this difficult period.
