“To the man whose absence I am allergic to and whose presence I am addicted to, Pascal Tokodi, I asked God for a gift for your birthday and He gave me something even money can’t buy. Today you welcome your princess into the world because she is the gift God decided to give you for your birthday and I am honored to have had the privilege of carrying her for us. Happy birthday My Love and happy born day to Baby AJ. I love you two soo much,” Wrote Ekirapa under a picture of the cradling the new born.

The actor, on the other hand, expressed excitement over feeling what exactly it was like being a father, saying not even his previous acting roles as a father could have prepared him for it. “To my little princess, I’m proud of many things in my life, but today, holding you in my arms, holding your tiny finger, being your father, Sharing a birthday with you…. will forever top the list, I will always be here for you, I will love you and protect you with everything I have, always and forever,” He wrote.
