Nigerian singer-songwriter Timi Dakolo pulled out all the stops to celebrate his wife Busola’s 40th birthday on October 3, 2024. The renowned artist composed a special song for the occasion, sharing his deep affection and admiration for his wife of over a decade. This milestone celebration not only highlighted the couple’s enduring love but also showcased Busola’s journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
As the clock struck midnight on October 3, 2024, Timi Dakolo took to social media to unveil his latest composition – a birthday tribute to his wife, Busola. The song, which quickly went viral, painted a vivid picture of their relationship and Busola’s character.
“Beautiful like ten people,” Timi crooned in the chorus, a line that has since become a trending hashtag. The lyrics playfully acknowledged Busola’s strong-willed nature, with Timi singing, “She can be stubborn, loves to win every argument, but I love her all the same.”
While Timi’s musical tribute set social media abuzz, Busola Dakolo took a moment to share her own reflections on turning 40. In a heartfelt Instagram post, she opened up about her journey of self-acceptance and growth.
