How quickly time passes! Gemma Olayinka, the daughter of Nollywood actress Yetunde Barnabas and footballer Peters Olayinka, has turned one today.

In honour of her daughter’s birthday, Yetunde Barnabas is reminiscing about the labour experience, which she described as very emotional for both herself and her husband. She praised God for His greatness and acknowledged that, while she is not perfect, she promised to be a perfect mother for her daughter’s sake.
