It’s Baby No 1 For Debbie Shokoya

The well-known Yoruba film actress Debbie Shokoya has welcomed her first child.

The filmmaker, Wumi Toriola, announced Shokoya’s birth on her Instagram page.

The actress thanked God for the safe birth and praised Shokoya.

“For He has made Everything beautiful in HIS TIME………. I woke up with this great news,” Toriola wrote.

“Congratulations @debbie_shokoya. God is Faithful.

“May God keep the new born, give you strength and to all pregnant women, your Joy will be in Full..Glory to Jesus.”

Shokoya also confirmed the news.

“Who Are The Godfathers And Godmothers??Send Baby Cash Gift,” she wrote via her Instagram story

“Dollar Pounds Or Naira. We Have All Account Ooo!!”

Last year, Shokoya flauned her husband on the occasion of his birthday.

In August 2023, Shokoya revealed that she had a miscarriage at eight months.

Recounting the loss while promoting her movie ‘Irin Ayanmo’, Shokoya said her pregnancy journey “did not go as planned“.

“When I was pregnant I just looked at it that I love acting. I was not going to go to locations just to celebrate,” she said.

“I was not really going to put my baby through anything. But this movie was to celebrate myself after giving birth that I have a baby now.

“But God did it, and it is what it is. This movie is dedicated to my child, anyways that is gone. And I like the fact that no situation defines me.

“That did not define me and I have been doing great for myself since then.

“Someone was talking randomly beside me and said ‘this year has more numbers of pregnant women that died with a child in the womb and also women who gave birth and died’.

“I felt that deeply. This is not to mock anyone, but I know of two close people that it also happened to.

“I am here today alive, sharing my testimony. It did not go as I planned but definitely it went as God planned and I am super grateful.

“I know my pains and bruises but I am stronger than them all. God is great.”

Congratulations! May your baby be a source of blessing to your household.

Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy

One ❤️❤️❤️
