Amid the tribal in fighting, the everyone for only their own mentality which plagues Nigerians, rises Mama Ekundayo. A Nigerian woman who in 1969 decided to dedicate her life to caring for abandoned children. As of 2008 Mama Ekundayo has mothered over 470 children. . . from all tribes, all parts of Nigeria, tall, short, fat, thin, brown eye, black haired. . . This song by Ty Bello is dedicated to Mama Ekundayo. . . Mama Rere. [flash=425,344] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgJ3pk_tQkA&hl=en&fs=1[/flash] |

Now that's a song and a half. Tis really good. Plus, the kongaz and talking drum ifektz were mad inspiring. Just when you think hospitality is waning, you see those that touch people's lives. |

LOL, I know what you mean. . . would listen to it all day every day if I could stop the goose bumpy feeling I get each time I hear Mama's voice. |

bawomolo: For a beautiful woman! To bad Nigerians don't recognize good work like this, even though I doubt mama cares to be recognized but still it would be nice. . . you know, A Mother Teresa type thing. |

i saw it on facebook and i was blown away,the woman is purely selfless in everything she s been doing another fact which is shocking is that only 2% or so of children in orphanages are adopted as the nigerian society frowns upon it |

What touched me the most was the old woman talking/praying at the beginning and end of the video. |

I can never get tired of this song, and it wont stop bringing tears to my eyes,because this is a poor woman,though richer than most of us esp our policy makers in so many ways. God bless T.Y Bello,for this great song Mama said and i quote " HOW CAN I EAT WHEN MY CHILDREN ARE STARVING" MY JOY OVERFLOWS, I STILL DON'T KNOW WHY GOD CHOOSE ME, BUT I AM MOST FULFILLED BY MY WORK WITH THE CHILDREN, I HAVEN'T DONE THIS BY MY OWN WISDOM, I KEEP ASKING GOD TO SHOW ME HOW, AND HE KEEPS WORKING MIRACLES" |
