Hello it’s another week, and I’m happy to share my entry with y’all
For this week I did an ijaw song titled Teiketu by Medlye.
“Ijaw” is one of the languages spoken in Southside of Nigeria, It's a unique language with its own sounds and words.
“Teiketu” is a soul-stirring song that beautifully captures the essence of God's unconditional love. This powerful songs reminds us of the depth of His sacrifice and the unwavering devotion He has for humanity. With heartfelt lyrics and a soaring melody, It is a testament to the transformative power of faith and the boundless love of our Creator. I'm so honored to share my rendition of this inspiring song, and I pray it blesses your spirit!
