Singer Waje celebrates daughter with touching story as she turns 16

Waje's daughter, Emerald, turned 16 today March 28th and the proud mum took to instagram to celebrate her and share a touching story about how she gave birth to her. Read below..

I had gone to the hospital earlier but the doctor said my due date was April 4th so my mum took me home and left for lagos that day. At 11pm, lying in d living room which was my only comfortable spot in the house, labour started, grandma said (don't worry, false alarm) then it became frequent, I couldn't scream but I felt like killing someone and my bro @officialbk6 was a great candidate for that murder but they were all trying to make me feel better. Cut the long story short , labour was for 4hrs and this queen was born.

My prayer is that Gods grace and Favour will envelope u, God will direct your path, in everything you do u shall prosper, you shall be called great amongst your peers and your well will never run dry.

You are above REPROACH!!! No one will dare tangle with God by messing with his chosen.nothing can drive a wedge btw u and christ, as the sun rises so shall u arise and shine. You are born of God and great shall be your testimony. And to every teenager I use u as a point of contact, you all shall Ve victory over death, in d day of trouble u will be delivered,he has set his love around u, He will be your refuge and His kindness shall not depart from you. The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. Welcome to a new year of greatness, excellence,gentleness, success,Favour,discipline thru Gods grace,nothing shall by any means hurt u.

Your family and friends are blessed! You will bring joy and not sorrow to those u come in contact with, you shall be the first and not the last, God will be expressed in your existence and people will testify of Gods greatness in your life.im so proud of you. For every parent, may God fill our lips with thanksgiving for the joy of this gift He has given us knows no end. For those yet to become parents, may the lord prepare u for the miracle and equip u.

It's no news that Waje has recently emerged looking slimmer than she was last year.Speaking to Saturday Beats, she said comments about her weight depressed her..
“I reduced my weight because I watched my performance on screen one time and I was shocked. When you are on screen, you add ten pounds and there was a time I was performing and it was shown live. I did not like the comments on twitter and it made me depressed for a while. I had to make a decision if I wanted to enjoy life and call myself a fat person or I could live a better lifestyle. As a female brand, I am a visual brand and when you look good, people tend to take you more seriously. You also feel smarter, so I had to start thinking in that direction.(more below)

“The weight loss was intentional and the reason was because I wanted to live a healthier lifestyle. I just want to reduce my food intake, especially junk foods. My stylist is hoping I get slimmer because it is easier to style slim people. For slim people, you can get clothes off the rack but for people like me, we have to make the clothes most of the time,” she said.
