Nollywood actor Saidi Balogun and his family marked Zeenat Balogun’s posthumous birthday with a heartfelt tribute video. Shared by his son on Instagram, the video celebrates Zeenat’s life and resilience in the face of Sickle Cell Anaemia. The family used World Sickle Cell Day to raise awareness and honour all warriors battling the condition. They recalled how Zeenat faced every challenge with courage, grace and unwavering strength. Though Zeenat is no longer with them, her love, light and legacy remain alive in their hearts. The Balogun family believes “we only die when we are forgotten” and continues to draw inspiration from her story. Earlier reports noted that Saidi had shared a candlelit photo after her passing. He has marked remembrance events each year, and his ex-wife also paused on social media to mourn and later thank fans for their support.
