Nigerian author, Chimamanda Adichie, has penned an emotional tribute to her late mother, Grace Adichie, who died last month at the age of 78.

Chimamanda lost her mother, eight months after her father, James Adichie died at 88 from kidney failure.

She broke down and her emotions could be felt in the post she made revealing that her mother died on her late father’s birthday.

She shared the events that led to her death revealing that she was having a hard time because she has been heartbroken twice.

According to her, her mother was unwell, however, after visiting the hospital, she was a little bit better stating that the doctor even sent an update that she’s fine, however, she was then transferred to the teaching hospital suggesting that things had gone from bad to worst.

Part of the post she made reads;
“Two hours after she arrived at the teaching hospital, she died. It was March 1st. My father’s birthday. We were planning for my father’s iyipu-akwa, to mark the end of a formal mourning period, and now I cannot believe we are planning another funeral. Again.”

She shared some lovely photos of herself and her mother to express her current state of emotion.
