Nigerian comedian Ayo Makun popularly known in music circles as AY has taken to social media to pen an open letter to God following the death of Davido’s son, Ifeanyi.
The humour merchant who was reacting to the unfortunate demise of the three-year-old said that he wonders why God will allow the devil to take away the blessings He gives us.
AY in his post on Instagram said that no parents wants to outlive their children, and it’s really not fair on the few good people who do a lot to help others keep their own children alive.

”Dear Lord, we will never understand why you would give us a blessing and allow the devil to take it so quickly. No parents want to outlive their children, and it’s really not fair on the few good people who do a lot to help others keep their own children alive, by giving them hopes for a better tomorrow.
”This loss affects so many people. How do we even encourage them to move on? How can we ever trust caregivers with our children when we remember the painful circumstances surrounding that innocent child’s death? We all want to ask for forgiveness and continue to glorify you, even in our pain. You sincerely need to show Yourself to the parents and protect them from bitterness.
”Give them a new purpose for living and a way to honour their child’s life. Give them the courage to trust you, to hope again, and to love again. Protect them from living in fear and paranoia. Judging by the things you have blessed us with, we know you are good, and you do good. Protect us from evil people as we give you this tragedy to redeem in Jesus name. Amen!” AY wrote.
