INSPIRATIONAL: COBHAM ASUQUO

Cobhams Asuquo
.

Nigerian-born Songwriter, Singer, Producer . . .

.

Was obviously born blind.

.

In a family of six children only Cobhams was born blind.

.

Well, the blindness didn’t deter him from positioning his dreams, though. That’s by the way!

.

He found the love of his life, Ojuolape, and they got married in 2010.

.

Wondering how Ojuolape got married to a blind man?

.

You wouldn’t, right?

.

Love can do anything, anyway.

.

Love, they say, is blind.

.

When a man discovers his purpose, his disabilities becomes abilities.

.

Their marriage was all rosy . . .

.

Ojuolape became pregnant in 2011, a year after their wedding.

.

And she was delivered of a baby boy, who was christened David.

.

Guess what?

.

The boy was born blind too.

.

Yes, their first son, David is also blind.

.

Cobhams isn’t just visually impaired, he has a virtually impaired son too.

.

Ojuolape isn’t just married to a visually impaired man, she birthed a visually impaired son too.

.

Is it challenging? Yes!

.

Did she give in? No!

.

Amazingly, the boy is 7 years old now, and he’s a bad-ass pianist like his father.

.

Quite recently, Tito Idakula, the wife of one of Nigeria’s finest Soul singers, Bez, hosted Ojuolape Asuquo on a show titled “My Jesus Experience”

.

She shared her thoughts on how challenging it is to have a blind son and a blind husband . . .

.

She was perplexed when the doctors told her that her son would be blind

.

And it was discovered four months after birth.

.

The video was emotion-studded.

.

Her faith quivered

.

But, she held on to Jesus, the author and finisher of her faith.

.

And of course, Cobhams Asuquo and family is living happily ever after . . . Not in spite of the predicaments, but because of them.

.

The morals of Ojuolape Asuquo is beyond the confines of marriage . . .

.

It is applicable to all ramification of life

.

You may wake up one morning and collapse . . .

.

You may be diagnosed of a chronic disease . . .

.

Your business may experience a slow . . .

.

Of course you never wished for it. You never wanted it so.

.

But, you have to accept it . . .

.

And live!

.

Great things are wrapped in ugly packs.

.

When life throws a stone at you, step on it and climb higher.

Have a great weekend!
