Nollywood actress, Bimpe Akintunde marks the birthday of her daughter as she recounts how her request for a father figure brought tears to her eyes.

In a lengthy post on her Instagram page, Bimpe recounted the instances when her daughter persistently urged her to get married and confided in Bimpe’s sister about her longing for a father’s presence.

Bimpe Akintunde disclosed that she was deeply saddened by her daughter’s words and would often cry, express her frustrations, and lament over her unsuccessful attempts.
