Nollywood actress Sharon Ooja is celebrating her best friend and colleague, Bisola Aiyeola, as she turns 40 today.
In a lengthy Instagram post, she described Bisola as her best friend, sister, confidant, and true soul sister. Sharon expressed gratitude to God for the Skinny Girl In Transit movie, because it gave her Bisola.
She appreciated her friendship with Bisola, which involves quiet moments, prayers, tears, laughter and love. She said Bisola changed the entire meaning of friendship and raised the bar.
According to her, the realistic star showed her what it means to be safe with someone, to be seen, and held without judgment. She expressed her gratitude to God for bringing her into her life, as she is the true definition of a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
“Happy birthday to my best friend, my sister, my confidant, my true soul sister. What we share goes far beyond Instagram Bisola, beyond pictures and captions. I bless God for Skinny Girl in Transit because it blessed me so early in my career with you. It’s in the quiet moments, the prayers, the tears, the laughter, and the love we pour into each other when no one is watching. You love me deeply and truly, and I love you back in equal measure.
You changed the entire meaning of friendship for me. You raised the bar. You showed me what it means to be safe with someone, to be seen, to be held without judgment. That’s why I celebrate you so loudly and openly: what we have is rare. Many don’t see us behind closed doors; they don’t witness the depth of our bond, but that’s what makes it so sacred. It’s not for show. It’s real life. It’s pure. It’s beautiful.
I thank God endlessly for bringing you into my life. His word is true, a friend who sticks closer than a brother, and you have done even more than that. You have shown up, stood firm, prayed hard, loved fiercely, and remained constant.
I celebrate you in every role you carry so gracefully. I admire you so much!! You are an incredible mother, a loving daughter, a loyal sister, and the truest friend. Thank you for trusting me with your deepest secrets. I’m so honoured to keep them so close. Thank you for your vulnerability, for allowing me to see the parts of you that are precious and worth protecting. That trust humbles me, and I never take it lightly.
May the God of angel armies always go before you and stand behind you. May the hosts of heaven surround you with goodness, favour, and peace. You are diligent in your work, and His word says you will stand before kings. You trust God, and His word says you will never see shame. You are protected; if they gather to harm you, they will fall for your sake.
Today and always, I celebrate you, my queen. I am so deeply proud of you. So honoured to walk this life beside you. So grateful to call you my best friend.
I love you beyond words. @iambisola
Happy BIG 40, my soul sister and best friend, what an honour to call you that!!”.
