Popular Nigerian actress Faithia Balogun has announced the de@th of her mother.

She made the announcement a few hours after her 55th birthday party.

The actress on Monday morning disclosed that her mother passed away on the eve of her party on Sunday but the sad news was kept away from her until after the ceremony.

She, however, urged her fans and the general public to keep her and her siblings in prayers.

She wrote: "Dear friends, it was my 55th birthday on Thursday, February 5. However, I chose to have a party yesterday, Sunday.

"Unbeknownst to me, my beloved mother d!ed on the eve of my party and the news was cruelly kept away from me.

"The reality of her passing has not totally dawned on me because she was my cheerleader, prayer warrior, best friend, and gist partner wrapped in the invaluable gift of a mother.

"Whilst I have taken solace in Allah (SWT), the Williams' family has decided to keep things very private for now. 

"Your love and prayers will mean a lot to me and my siblings this period.

"Burial details will be announced later.

"Thank you".
