In commemoration of this year’s Father’s Day celebration, former Big Brother Naija housemate, Tega Dominic seized the opportunity to mourn her dad, Senator Bassey Ekpenyong.
Noting that her dad would’ve disowned her by now if he were still alive, Tega shared a video of the former which was obtained by The PUNCH.
The reality TV star noted that her father’s death shook her entire life.
Captioning the video of her father, she wrote: “I decided to leave the sound on so I can feel and hear your voice once more.
“Your passing shook my entire life and changed my entire perception about life. I couldn’t believe it happened.
“I miss you so much, I know you would have disowned me one million times by now and still loved me one million times more because you know where I carry the coconut head from.
She added that her son, Jamil, had insisted on staying with her late dad a few minutes after the older man passed.
Tega added, “Jamjam misses you. I remember a few minutes before your passing, Jamjam said, ‘I want to stay with gianpa’.
“Maybe he knew you were going to leave us. We love you and miss you so much.
“Happy Father’s Day, Senator (Rev) Dominic Bassey Ekpenyong. Keep resting in peace. My no-nonsense man.”
