Popular singer Niniola has shared a heartbreaking tribute following the death of her husband, Michael Ndika, who passed away on May 19.
In an emotional Instagram post, the grieving singer opened up about the deep bond they shared, describing Michael as not only her husband but also her closest companion and strongest support system.
According to Niniola, Michael played several important roles in her life and was the one person she depended on completely. She recalled how much she always looked forward to his return whenever he stepped out of the house, revealing that his absence still feels unreal.
The singer explained that the connection between them went beyond marriage, noting that they were constantly together because he never liked being far from her.
“I find myself waiting, expecting Michael to walk through the door. My BEST FRIEND, my CONFIDANT, my PILLAR, my Gossip Partner, my LAUGHTER, my JOY GIVER, my Provider, my business partner, my HUSBAND, my BROTHER, HE was the air I breathe,” she wrote.
Niniola also described herself as naturally withdrawn, saying Michael became her entire world because of the unique love and companionship he gave her.
“I looked forward to him coming home everytime he went out… Even in the house, we were always together. He never wanted me to be away from him. Always wanted me to be by his side,” she added.
Expressing the depth of her pain, the singer admitted she is struggling to come to terms with the devastating loss.
“I’m naturally a LONER, and Michael was all that I needed because he was one in a million… He touched my life in different capacities. And God took him from me.
“I can’t survive this,” she wrote.
The emotional tribute has since drawn sympathy from fans, friends, and colleagues, many of whom flooded her comment section with prayers and words of comfort during this difficult time.
