“You shall not be used as a tool of envy or hate” – Olakunle Churchill’s Birthday Message to Son with Tonto Dikeh

“It is with the deepest and sincerest love, not just as a man, but as a father that I celebrate the one after my heart”… That’s how Olakunle Churchill started his birthday message to his son, King Andre.

Olakunle Churchill and ex-wife Tonto Dikeh welcomed their son back in 2016 but the couple has had a tulmutous relationship that has played out in the media ever since.

In this birthday post, Olakunle Churchill expresses regret that he hasn’t been able to spend as much time as possible with his son in the past few years. He also shares the circumstances that led to the current situation of distance between him and his son. He ends the post with prayers for his son.

He wrote:

It is with the deepest and sincerest love, not just as a man, but as a father that I celebrate the one after my heart. Today marks the blessed day that my son King Andre breathe his first air in this world.

I therefore pray for the goodness of God upon your life to blossom, his protection, guidance and good health, continue to grow in the unprecedented grace of almighty God.

On this special day, there are some things I’d like to share….. even though my heart feel so heavy to say this but it’s basically to shed more light to the darkness created by bitterness… son its is very imperative to speak to you at this point.

It’s important to know that no child came into this world by the means of one entity; it’s always through the coming together of a man and a woman (parents). In addition, I want you to know that you have a father and he’s right here with you. I AM HERE FOR YOU IRRESPECTIVE OF CHALLENGES AND SITUATIONS between the union of my self and your mom.

The same blood runs in us, nothing can change that. No one can change your name or turn your face away from me, you are my blood and for ever you will be mine.

I remembered winning the judgement in court to have access to you two days before your 2nd birthday in 2018. The court insisted that your mother should grant me access to see you whenever I want through a Nanny, you can even visit me on holidays and other special events, also I was given your international passport and all your credentials after showing payment proves. The condition was fine by me as a caring father, even though I have always wanted to have you by my side all day and all night, play together, tell tales and assist in your home works, instil the needed discipline but the situations at hand couldn’t, because we need to respect the judgement to avoid contempt of the court.

Unfortunately my dear son, the agreement was breached by for flimsy excuses, I couldn’t forget in a hurry the the fun we had together the last time we met; but today I must reiterate that all the excuses for the denial is basically unacceptable to me because I can’t imaging the saying that you have no Nanny till this present moment simply because the court said we should always meet through the nanny. I’m taking my time to see that the court’s judgement is handled without troubles, I hope the court will have to review those conditions again .

King, you are my son and the love that exits between us is immeasurable and inseparable.

This is my prayer for you:

– Nothing in this world will deprive you of your kingly entitlement, and nothing can change who you are.
– You shall not be used as a tool of envy or hate. You are a loved son of his father.
-You will grow and be nurtured in the way of God and nothing can dim your shining light.
– I pray that you shall live to be a king, and follow the godly footsteps that I’m laying for you today. I named you KING ANDREA for a purpose; because you’re royalty.
-May the Almighty God continue to bless and keep you safe, my dearest son.

I love you with every fibre of my being. I promise to continue the fight for you because it is a good fight and by the grace of God we wining.

All the best in your pursuits

Happy Birthday, Son.
Your Dad, Churchill.

Earlier in the day, actress Tonto Dikeh also shared a sweet message for her son, saying: “Happy birthday My Little man, Feb 17th the day my life changed for the Best all because you chose me. My love for you grows a thousand miles and more every second. I Love you King Andre Dikeh, you pratically are my Life/ My World/ My Joy.. EveryDay with you is the best day of my Life… God bless and direct your path honey. I LOOOOVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU DEEPLY JUICYMAN”

She added:

Dear Andre my son,

I am the luckiest woman to have you as a son, because you’re God’s gift to me, and to humanity. I stare at you and revel in the wonder of your entire beautiful being. I used to think that blessings are materially counted until I had you; if I have 7 blessings, I’ll count you thrice. You were created by God, and He found me worthy to be your mom — a divine assignment to which I’m accountable to God.

When all chips are down, and I remember that I have you, my face beams with smiles, because you are my consolation, my BESTfriend, my baby, my everything. Grooming you and watching you grow is interesting — it shows how much I’ve invested in you to make you grow.

I am grooming you to be a sound man; an accountable man; a man that respects women; a man that will be the model for other men to learn compassion, love and confidence from. I’m grooming you to be the man that Perfect gentleman ; your future wife will be grateful I groomed you because you’ll shine the light.

Keep growing in the purpose of Christ, my love, Andre. You’re a star; an epitome of greatness and you’ll reign. I love you more than words can express. Happy birthday my baby.
